OH YEAH!
 
SUPER SQUIRREL SECRET BONER ROUND
 
That's an interesting mental image huh
 
FIND A GEOCACHE
 
You can find geocache information on http://www.geocaching.com/ 

 

When you find a cache, you must take a picture of it and include a link to the cache's page on Geocaching.com.  When you post your picture, include a short story about your adventure finding the cache.
 
The point from this round can be used to fill in for a round that you missed earlier in the competition OR banked and used later in the place of a missed round.
The point from this round can not be used at the end of the competition to break a tie and declare yourself winner - UNLESS both participants miss a round, thus still being tied, and one has this bonus point banked.
 
YOU HAVE THREE DAYS
 
GO

    It must be because of the anonymous redirect.  If you type the link into your address bar it will work.  Thanks for letting me know!  I'll update my post.

    I hope you appreciate the damned lamp shade. SO HARD TO FIND OMG. I went to home depot, I went to lowes, I went to walmart, I went to Target, I went to bed bath & beyond, I went to pier 1, I went to TJ Maxx, I went to JC Penny, I went to Macy's... and no goddamn purple lampshade. I finally found one at Fuego. I was just about ready to give up and cry.

    Damn, I found my lamp shade at Walmart on the first try :/ I'm sorry that you had to go through all that intense searching.

    Erm... https://www.google.c...822!2d40.800256

     

    The geocache site doesn't like me (or work particularly well when it comes to finding your location apparently) 

    But totally getting into geocaching now :p

     

    EDIT:

     

    @Nymh how did you avoid referencing Secret Squirrel in your naming of the boner round? 

    Secret_Squirrel.gif

     

    Also, does the geocache have to come from the website you listed?

    If you can provide me a link to the cache on a different website and tell the story of finding it with a picture, that will suffice. I'm not aware of any other geocaching websites, though?

    And I didn't even think about that guy :p

    It's a shame the site doesn't like you. Geocaching is the bomb dot com.

    @Nymh It's ok, turns out, the site was having a spaz. When I logged in properly, it was a lot more accurate, and there's at least 3 within 1km of my house :) One of them I can see from my house. :p

    So I ventured off to try this Geocaching thing.. and honestly it's so cool.  :lol:  

     

    I drove a mile down the road and found one on Pine Road. I had to look at the hint to realize it was under a mailbox stand, and that it was a tube wrapped in black duct tape. Inside was a silly-band which I left (as I didn't have anything to replace it with), and the log. I signed it and tucked the cache back under the mailbox stand.

     

    I even went on another adventure into town to find another one, but I think the place was recently mulched and someone must have removed it.  :thumbdown:

    I created an account on the Geocaching website, but I'm unable to activate it. :(

     

    There are apparently a few caches in my area. Matt and I tried to go looking for one just based on the description. I'm fairly certain we found the spot, but we couldn't find anything there. I may try looking for another one that's supposed to be nearby, but I have no way of finding out the exact location, it's hidden in an area that's prone to flooding, and it's supposed to rain. That, and I don't want to risk getting poison ivy again for nothing.  :/

    devem is purple because of her bonus round entry.

     

    As you can see, our elite squad has been whittled down to just six participants.

     

    Please bitch at me if I seem to have missed one of your entries.

    Geocaching is cool. I never knew it was older than 10 years.

    (If you want to kill or hunt me down for any reason, do so before I go to grad school in about 3 weeks)

    My adventure is not very exciting. I left my house, walked less than a block's length (geocaching said 0.4 miles), walked into the woods, tripped because my foot sank into soft earth/decomposing wood puddle, dusted off my knees, panicked for a minute until I found the "treasure chest". I am happy with my achievement.
