About This Item

B is for... Travel Bug

B is for... Barry and Barbara-ann, who bought this bug for us for Christmas.
They lost it for a few weeks in all the Christmas confusion,
so this bug has been found once before even being released!

B is for... bonus points (just for fun!), awarded based on the names of caches visited.
200 bonus points for each word beginning with B.
50 bonus points for each embedded b or floating B.
Note: the ß character does not score as it is pronounced "ss".
Watch out! There' is -500 point PENALTY for placing in a cache with BONUS in the name!
Bonus points may be awarded for unforseen events at the discretion of the judges.

tjwinch starts the scoring... the judges thought that passing the B to a cacher called Badger must count for something, so awarded... 150 bonus points.
Underground Badger took the TB to Battle Plantation for a score of 200 bonus points.
Geo-Myck took 'B is for' on an epic journey and clocked up an awesome... 7,700 bonus points!!
Captain Squeek is awarded 400 bonus points for evidently visiting Belle Tout View 1 (Beachy Head).
Puzzelsman collects -500 bonus points for a BONUS cache placement. But the judges decided that introducing 'B is for...' to Belgium should count for something, and awarded a discretionary 100 bonus points, total -400.
