  1. 104daysummervacation, don't get too excited. I just tested our closest one Amble Around Alcester GC161DA and and it looks REALLY good! The page transitions are very impressive. But! It doesn't work. At one stage you have to enter a date and it says it's incorrect. It must be comparing it as text or number or whatever It's also very clunky in counting down the distance to the next zone. This might be due to its urban setting but it would be unusable if I didn't already know where to go next. Mark
  2. http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/wherpigo/id385035547?mt=8#
  3. We got a Souvenir for Mega Scotland (see profile) It showed up on the iPhone app when we were there
  4. In the Geocoins section of http://www.geocaching.com/track/default.aspx Mark
  5. 20292: Personal Notes for Cache Listings I like this BUT.... it's a pity the notes aren't then included in a GPX download or PQs Mark
  6. Deserves its own special icon I reckon! Mark
  7. Co-coincidently, that one 'What comes next' question Hereford, Hertford Hurricanes etc was used in a puzzle cache south of Birmingham Mark
  8. Yeah, beaver we knew that one at least!
  9. Intriguing! I just knocked up a GreaseMonkey script to count the rows: http://www6.brinkster.com/coolsite/row_count.user.js and yes, your page four does only have 19. I haven't found the one with 21 yet though Mark
  10. Personally, I don't think there ought to be records for 'most caches paced' (letterbox or otherwise) either! Mark
  11. Predictably, here's our first contribution: Most Countries in 24 Hours Perhaps mongoose39 could remove his pages to avoid confusion Mark
  12. Here you go: http://www.geocachingrecordsuk.co.uk/ http://www.talkytoaster.info/ukrecords.htm All pretty similar, all out of date If records are worth keeping surely they're worth keeping up to date! Mark
  13. I think that's the THIRD version of that records list I've seen in the last couple of weeks and they all well out of date! Mark
  14. Team Balders was FTF on one on Arran (300+ miles from his home) over two years after it was published! I seem to recall the The Bolas Heathens were FTF on one in Iceland which was published before leaving home as well Mark
  15. Our furthest FTF from home was 107 miles but we were staying in the Travelodge about a mile away when it was published so that doesn't really count Our furthest from home where the cache was already published before we left home is 35 miles / 50 mile drive. Mark
  16. Anyone else noticed that the EarthCaches forum is now grouped in with other spurious stuff in 'GPS Related Topics'? I'm sure it used to be under 'General Geocaching Discussions' Is this a sign of TPTB disowning ECs? Mark
  17. Having to gather information and then do further Googling amounts to the same thing as well and therefore shouldn't be aloud Mark
  18. Chris I understood the OP to mean 'Bonus' caches where you have to enter gathered details into a webpage to get a final location (as per the example I gave earlier) these are no longer allowed. This is NOT the same a forgetting to print off bonus cache details before you go and looking it up when out in the field Mark
  19. I was under the impression (ie in an answer to a question I asked Deci about a year ago) that these sort of caches were no longer allowed. Existing ones like the GC1F4NV Chiltern Hundred Bonus were Grandfathered in though Which newer caches are you referring to? Mark
  20. YOSM is just a moving Virtual owned by OutForTheHunt. No proximity rules apply. A trig pillar can be a YSOM and have a micro stuck in the hole on as well eg GC1NEDD is a Micro YSM188 is the YSOM at the same pillar Mark
  21. Agreed! We've had some great caching days during Winter. If going further afield we'll stop overnight in a Premier Inn/Travelodge etc the night before to make the most of the daylight Mark
  22. No you can't* *not on www.geocaching.com anyway
