There's nothing in the Guidelines or the Help Center guidance to prevent you from doing it.

Multi or Unknown/Puzzle and you have the final coordinates... "Cheesy"

 

Traditional, and you have no extra clues than every other cacher can see on the cache page, go for it!

Your responsibility of adopting those caches is to maintain them. Can you do that if you've never actually located them? It might also be embarrassing if someone posts a DNF and the new owner can't find them, lol.

Yeah...seems kind of strange to adopt a cache you've never even found. How do you even know you WANT to 'own' them? I mean, normally I would never adopt an LPC cache, so if I found out the cache I'd just adopted was under a lamp skirt I'd probably either change the hide or archive it. I'm not against finding an LPC, but I've never hidden one that way and don't plan to ever own one.

its only a few that ive not found yet and i am going out to find them soon so i will know where they are and if dont find them i will archive them as some havent been touched by many cachers

We adopted one we never found and later went and found and replaced it with a better container. I kind of felt we deserved the find as we had to find it like everyone else but we have yet to log it. Maybe I will sometime.
