Current Goal

You found me!! Now you can help me out. I am a contestant in the Great TB Race of 2009. In this race, I can earn points for various tasks that I complete. The more points I have, the closer I am to winning. The simplest way is to help move me to another cache, but I have more tasks that are worth more points. However, I only gain points for the final cache you place me in, so please do not try to help me out by dipping me into multiple caches. Read on to find out how you can help me win the race.

I hope someone picked this one up and hasn't logged it yet, because when I visited GC1T1MF (Somewhere Redux), I didn't see this bug in the cache.
