Krypton and Nomex. Nomex and Krypton.
There's no good way to repay the local reviewers for the thousands of hours they have given this game. Here's one way of saying thank you.
For a long time, their logs would appear as "Nomex (0 found)" and "Krypton (0 found)." Then one day, something changed. I couldn't help but notice that the logs from Krypton were labeled, "Krypton (1 found)." To quote one of my favorite cachers, HUH?
Well, it didn't take long to see what was up. It wasn't that Krypton was suddenly getting a case of, "It's all about the NUMBERS." Rather, there was a "Krypton's Cache" published. Then it hit me. Could Nomex be enticed to likewise drop the goose-egg, get off the schneid, break the drought, etc? IN time, I would find out. The WAY to see, of course, would be to publish a straightforward tribute puzzle, called "Nomex's Cache." Hey, it never hurts to score POINTS with the reviewers.
Now to the puzzle, some of my favorite caches published by Nomex:
GCX3PT Virus Bravo Eight
GCVXZ8 Caching in a Parallel Universe
GCX3PZ Fairie Ring
GCX3PJ LT Trail
GCXGD4 Dyfen's Demise
GCW1X7 Greenie
GC121AZ Alamo Creek Bridge
GCZ47Y Ryan's Perfect Place for a Cache!
GCXE2V B. D. Picnic Place
GCX0T0 Cyanocitta Cristata
Thanks, Nomex (and Krypton and cache reviewers everywhere) for all that you do!
See you in Cacheland!
