dieThea93 Posted November 29, 2010 Share Posted November 29, 2010 (edited) Hi, this is Thea (Stefan’s girlfriend) and I’d like to introduce a new Cointest. Would you like to win one of the extra limited edition Naymlaps (gold/black nickel + ruby-red), from which we have only 18? Picture Yes? So all you have to do is to show us the way you would honor the Naymlap. Would you sacrifice anything? Kneel down in front of him in your traditional Lambayeque-robe? Don’t let us wait too long and post some photos until 21/12/2010 (just because it’s such a nice date ) We are curious for your posts. Every participant may post at most three photos (and only photos). The winner is chosen by wenzelbub and will be contacted until the end of the year. Be creative Edited November 29, 2010 by dieThea93 Quote Link to comment

+Suzyfishn Posted November 29, 2010 Share Posted November 29, 2010 Why not hang them on the wall as art? Perhaps in a den/office/family room? They would then be off the floor and out of the way and the hubby gets to keep his "toys" Quote Link to comment

+isjustus4 Posted November 30, 2010 Share Posted November 30, 2010 Now THAT IS A PRETTY COIN! Quote Link to comment
+Wolfsvater Posted November 30, 2010 Share Posted November 30, 2010 I hope I will find all the things at home. But I also think that these are the right things fore this beautiful Master of geocaching. Quote Link to comment
dieThea93 Posted November 30, 2010 Author Share Posted November 30, 2010 It's me again, I wanted to remark once again that we want to see you during the tribute to the Naymlap!!! Not only the object you'd sacrifice... Please respect this (And don't really destroy anything important for your photo!!!) Quote Link to comment
+GATOULIS Posted December 1, 2010 Share Posted December 1, 2010 Destroy??? the guitars?? I hope not!!! I can adopt one but not destroy them please!!!! I am thinking what sucrifice I can do for this amazing coin..... hmmm...... Can I ask something? We can make up to 3 posts for the cointest only? I hope this post will not count... And.. if I post 2 photos in one post? I will only have 1 photo only for my other posts? for the sucrifice I am thinking... (but I do not know if I can actually do it and post it...) I have to post 2 photos to show... Quote Link to comment
dieThea93 Posted December 1, 2010 Author Share Posted December 1, 2010 Of course you may post more than one photo to show us your act of honor. Three posts means three different ways of honoring the Naymlap! Quote Link to comment
+GATOULIS Posted December 1, 2010 Share Posted December 1, 2010 I am also thinking that you may deside that I will not be a winner... just tp protect me! So..... I have first to pray the weather to stay good... even if that is not easy.... then I have to talk with my sister and brother in law... to take the photos.... What is my sacrifice??? I will sacrifice my health (!!!!) for some days (I hope... but there is a chance nothing will happen to me...) what mean..... there is a cache here in Rhodes that I haven't found yet! Its name is Faliraki http://coord.info/GC2G9VK This cache is in a tiny rock island close to the beach! It has a greek flag on it! I am the maintaner of the cache but I haven't been there yet... My sacrifice?? To swim in the middle of the winter in the sea, go there (I hope it will not have waves..), take a photo with the coin (since my brother in law will not be close to me... I do not know if you can see the coin... I will be far away, but... he will take a photo holding it... before and after the swim...) and log the cache! you will see the loging too... in the page of the cache! I will probably be ill for some days but... it will worth for suce a prety coin.... right? The tiny rock island is this one... and here is a small map to see where the island is! I have to swim to go! It is not connected! Quote Link to comment
+still-hide Posted December 3, 2010 Share Posted December 3, 2010 Hmmm...i remember at the same time last year, i was searching for a trade with this coin, but my calls for it seems lose in the world wide web...so i dive...look here... an then... Quote Link to comment
+GATOULIS Posted December 3, 2010 Share Posted December 3, 2010 hmm... I do not know if the second photo shows a real woman...but she has a great body!!! Quote Link to comment
+still-hide Posted December 3, 2010 Share Posted December 3, 2010 hmm... I do not know if the second photo shows a real woman...but she has a great body!!! Hey...believe it, the pics shows me and my girlfriend to search for the naymlap XLE... Quote Link to comment

Hey...believe it, the pics shows me and my girlfriend to search for the naymlap XLE... Then... I hope your girlfriend has a sister! Naymlap is such a pretty coin!!! I think it is inspired from the handle of a ceremonial knife of Chimu or Sican/Lambayeque civilization.... amazing pre columbian civilizations!!!! Quote Link to comment
+wenzelbub Posted December 8, 2010 Share Posted December 8, 2010 Thats the one you will win, No. 8 of 18 Are you so unimaginative? Only a few entries Imagine you are one of the Lambayeque civilization and God Naymlap is coming to you, a BIG honor! Show us how you will honor him. We want to see you while doing this, not what you think you would do! Make crazy pictures to let us laugh! Quote Link to comment
+GATOULIS Posted December 12, 2010 Share Posted December 12, 2010 oh boy.... winter came here in greece too.... with so much cold... I do not know if I can enter in the sea without going in the hospital after! since I have to go in the sea, swim, then go out to the island, then again swim back... and the sea is so raugh that I do not know if I can stay on the rock island... but till I do it... if I do it.. so... here is an other idea.... but it is not something funny etc... Since he is a god od an ancient civilization..... how about to take him to see the temples of other religions that we have here in Rhodes?? I can take him to temples from ancient times (greek and roman), byzantine times, medieval times, and new ones! one or 2 of each... I can take him to see an Christian Orthdox church, a Catholic church, a muslim temple and a Hebrew temple... which is very old! I will take photos to see them too, BUT.... I have to say that for respect of any religion, I will not take photos from inside of them! Some are closed anyway... and others (ancient) are destroyed, but I can take a photo from inside an Orthdox church to see... this is not a sucrifice... I know but it is something to honor him!

+EyeD10T Posted December 12, 2010 Share Posted December 12, 2010 To Honor Naymlap, I will dress in my best Lambayeque garb and go geocaching! Quote Link to comment
+drneal Posted December 13, 2010 Share Posted December 13, 2010 to honor Naymlap, I will fight my sensei in a battle to the death! well, it seemed like a good idea . ILYK Quote Link to comment
+drneal Posted December 13, 2010 Share Posted December 13, 2010 (edited) well, that didn't work out so well, but a little betadine, and a really big bandage later, I'm ready to try again...something a little less dangerous. In honor of naymlap, i will dress up as a giant chicken, and pose with other geocachers at a mega event held in Toledo... ILYK Edited December 13, 2010 by drneal Quote Link to comment
+EyeD10T Posted December 13, 2010 Share Posted December 13, 2010 (edited) After a day geocaching for the honor of Naymlap, I will then honor Naymlap with a ceremonial dance! Edited December 13, 2010 by EyeD10T Quote Link to comment

Wow! Thank you so much...I really appreciate it. Thank you for the cointest as well. I learned a lot when I read up on this. I had never heard of Naymlap before, so it was interesting reading the history and gave me a little insight into what the coin is about. Edited January 5, 2011 by EyeD10T Quote Link to comment
+GATOULIS Posted January 8, 2011 Share Posted January 8, 2011 congrats to the winner!!! Hmm.. I hope we will soon see photos of your ceremonial dance and the fancy clothing to go geocaching... right? And... not photoshopping ones.. Well... even if I lost a beautiful coin... I am a little lucky too... today is quite cold and after I posted about swimming in the sea to reach the island... the weather changed and winter came here too.... so... I was saved! No hospital for me and no danger...from the waves breaking in the rock island...!!! Quote Link to comment

+EyeD10T Posted January 14, 2011 Share Posted January 14, 2011 (edited) I received the coin today and it is really nice! I had never heard of the Lambayeque culture before, but since I love history I researched this culture and the Legend of Naymlap. It is very interesting. If you are intereste, wikipedia is a good place to start: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sican_culture Thank you Thea and Stefan for holding the cointest and giving me the chance to win such a beautiful coin!
