But again, this is dependent upon some degree of trust, unlike the kidnapper scenario. But based on the "Where's Waldo"ishness of the thread, I figure my answer works among friends.
Right. The problem as stated was finding a method that works between non-friends as well. It's *easy* for me to scribble something on a piece of paper, seal it in an envelope, and *say* "There's where Waldo is" (which is what encrypting the answer basically is). Consider me singularly unimpressed, as any good amateur magician knows how to get the *real* answer into the envelope during the time between when the answer becomes known and when the envelope is opened :)
