Update: The gnomes have been found! They are back snug in their little gnome beds. Thank you to everyone who helped find them! Congrats to our 3 randomly selected winners: @JungleCoder95, @TechMan, and @PaulBaker 🎉
The gnomes are back, and they are up to their old holiday shenanigans again! If you haven’t been around the community during the winter holidays before, you may not know about the Gnome in the Home Challenge. This is a beloved annual tradition where the Meraki gnomes MV and Switch play some festive pranks that usually involve hiding in the forums. Just when I thought this year would be different, and perhaps our little gnomes had finally matured…
When I walked into my office this morning, I was surprised to discover they weren’t in their usual spot on my desk. The pair seemed to have gone missing. Where could they be?!
As I searched around for them, I began to get worried. Finally, I discovered them hiding out underneath the tree - wrapping some last minute Switchmas gifts!
After I got them settled back into their cozy little gnome beds, I sat down to get some real work done, only to discover that they had run off again! This time, though, I think they’re hiding in the Meraki Community. Can you help me find them?
They left this clue for us:
In a place where tech and community collide,
A camera’s name is what needs to be tried.
We two are hidden where threads intertwine,
In the Meraki forum, we have left our sign.
If you find them lurking somewhere around here, please reply to this blog post with "I FOUND THE GNOME!" and a link to the post where they are hiding in the community.
Comments will remain hidden throughout the duration of this contest. Then, on December 17th at 11am ET, we will draw 3 at random from those who correctly found the gnomes’ location to win a Cisco Meraki 3-in-1 puzzle.
Thank you for helping me return the gnomes safely home!
