We never used TB3 or TB4, but teams 1 and 15 got TB3 exactly right, and only team 22 wrote "green" for TB 4. * Those who enjoyed my earlier Ringy Dingy rallyes may like to know that I'm planning to bring back Earnestine's telephone dial in next year's Four Ringy Dingy. I'm also planning to do a few more interesting things with MRDs in Four Ringy Dingy. * No First Timers entered this rallye. Please encourage your friends who might enjoy gimmick rallyes to give it a try! * A big THANK YOU to everyone who made this rallye possible: Abby Grossman, Michelle McGrew, Adam Riggs, Beth Riggs, Carol Thistlethwaite, David Thistlethwaite, and Brian Underwood who prechecked; Abby Grossman, Adam Riggs, Beth Riggs, David Thistlethwaite, and Brian Underwood who worked the checkpoints; Nancy Hanna and Steve Watt, who worked registration; Nick and Teresa Stefanisko, our illustrious awards committee; Jeff Trimble, whose "Italian Rob" rallye suggested applying two sets of rules to one instruction simultaneously; and All of you! We hope to see you again next month at Return of the Dark Mark and Toy Rallye '05! Soli Deo Gloria!
