With the publication of this cache the curse is lifted from
me. I will find another FTF someday!
Who will be the next person to take up the burden, to trade the
sweet joy of a blank log sheet for the knowledge you must place a
new cache soon in order to escape the curse?
The container is just large enough for the log and a few other
items, so bring your own pen. I hope you enjoy it!
Curse of the First to Find (FTF)
Rules
The ground rules for this special cache are pretty simple, and
are as follows:
1. If you are the First To Find for this cache, you will be
cursed if you choose not to place another new "Curse of the FTF
"cache within 2 months in order to extend the series. As the
FTF,the choice is yours and yours alone!
2. If you choose to avoid the curse by placing the next cache in
this series, the resulting cache must contain the words "Curse of
the FTF #18 (NoVa)" in its title; subsequent cache titles should
reflect the appropriate series number.
3. You are under no obligation to place the resulting cache in
Fairfax, but we do request that the cache be placed somewhere in
Northern Virginia no further south than Dumfries, VA and no further
west than Marshall, VA.
4. You may choose any type of cache (i.e. Traditional, Multi,
Puzzle, etc.) and any type/size of container you desire.
5. You can only be the First To Find once in this series, in
order to give other cachers an opportunity to score a FTF.
6. The nature of the curse is that if you fail to continue the
series by posting a new "Curse of the FTF" within the allotted 2
months, you will be prevented from ever getting another FTF until
the curse is lifted.
7. By way of clarification, there is no requirement besides the
standard signing of the cache log to prevent you from logging this
cache when found.
Here is a history of all the Curse of the FTF's in this series.
