Congratulations to Spladem, who was very quick off the mark and has done his best Dr Nome impersonation. The gnomes are now back out in the wild!pwags wrote:A lot of the Melbourne action has been in the western suburbs, so I've moved three (for the price of one!) to Monash University at Caulfield for some eastern-suburbs fun. Go and get them.
But.... there's a small catch - you'll have to get them during business hours, and you'll have to be brave!
Gnome or nanos
Harry the Gnome
Matt Patt Gnome
Now, say after me: "Hello, my name is Dr G Nome, and I am here to pick up a parcel."

While Professor Facit had his disguise ready to go, he was unfortunately unable to escape in time today (he's too busy solving the mysteries of the Big Bang)
Lucky for him, how would the receptionist handled another Dr G. Nome asking for the parcel?

That's exactly what I was worried about, hence announcing here that the box has now been picked up!Facitman wrote:... how would the receptionist handled another Dr G. Nome asking for the parcel?

Re: The Moving Cache Race for 2010/2011
I was wondering what would happen should the receptionist ask for ID?
Is that a gnome in your pocket ?
You know, for entertainment value, you're right on the money in this game.

She knows me fairly well, and is ready for anything.
I made the decision last week to try to keep the race "interesting" this year. I have a few more strange ideas, so stay tuned!caughtatwork wrote:You know, for entertainment value, you're right on the money in this game.

The J team are planning a trip down your way this weekend, if your gnomes are still in the area by then!mundoo wrote:2 of mine are yet to move from their initial hiding spot.

We havent hidden a gnome but have found 2 now and had a DNF on one tonight.Yurt wrote:How many people without gnomes are getting involved?
It was only being able to find breakable Gnomes and the thought of trying to put the logbook/container inside the Gnome that put me off, especially reading some of the posts here lol. However after picking up a Gnomy earlier this arvo; the way the container has been connected to it is very clever and something we could have done AND I saw a gorgeous non-breakable Gnome today so are wishing we had done one now
Ah-well

One of mine has been forcefully moved a massive...100 metres!
But another one has been moved 236km...i feel like this is an achievement. (And it's been the most found ?? WOW!)

It has to be published ON 1-Dec-2010.
So when you hide it use a date of 1-Dec-2010 and on your publish log use 1-Dec-2010.
Then signup at www.cachinggames.com, enter your gnomish details and you're away.
