  1. Would you consider starting a “no rules” geostashing site or newsgroup?
    Nah. Been there, done that (another topic.) Too much like work.

    Up to the point where the site started sanctioning behavior that was hurting the things I really cared about.
    Would you hide in violation of the rules?
    I think I'd find another hobby. I'm willing to say "from my cold dead hands" for some things, but not for a hobby.

    See above.
  2. I heard that TPTB are considering adding a forum area for Charter Members only. It will only be visible to Charter members who are logged in, thus no feelings will be hurt since non Charter members will not even know that this area exists.

     

    Rumor has it that any future developemnts to the website will be discussed there first, gathering the combined knowledge and opinions of the long time members of the geocaching community, rather than making blanket changes based on opinions of the few, or the new.

    Now that one we can eliminate as baseless... :lol:

  3. Interesting. Kind of reminds me of a computer show I went to in Atlantic City in 1977. Some guy named Gates was trying to hawk a buggy Basic interpreter for Altairs, and two other characters named Jobs and Wozniak were marketing an SBC called the Apple 1. All of which was just background noise at the time.

     

    So how did Groundspeak rise from obscurity to world domination, Daddy?

  4. well, since hypothetically, there are quite a few NJ cachers who share the FTF honors, it would hypothetically be hard to design a hypothetical cache that any of the purely hypothetically typical FTFer couldnt log and the other hypothetical slowpokes could. :(

    :D Stand by. :D

  5. Hypothetical premise: Suppose, hypothetically, that there is a (purely hypothetical) cacher in your 'hood who (hypothetically, of course) gets all the FTFs. :lol:

     

    Someone whose commute takes him near every part of the state at exactly those times when a new cache is announced.

     

    Suppose you wanted to let others get one or two FTFs at some time in their lives.

     

    Could you think of anything to level the playing field?

     

    Now, could you think of anything legal to level the playing field? :ph34r:

  6. At the End of Your Rope Cache

     

    This is an idea I had a long time ago, but was never sure if it would work very well. Feel free to use it (but let me know if it works).

     

    Two boxes are each securely affixed (tied to an object, or spiked into the ground) at different locations, about 150- 175 feet apart from each other. Finding the first, will give you the clue/co-ordinates to find the second. Each box contains 100 feet of rope, with one end affixed to the box and the other end affixed to a laminated tag (the laminated tags would have some instructions on it) . The actual cache location is at one of two possible locations, being the locations where the two tags meet when the ropes are pulled out straight. This might be particularly interesting /difficult if there were lots of other trees around to get in the way. The instructions printed on the tags, ask that the ropes be put neatly back in their boxes after the cache is found.

    Wouldn't you need a tenth of a mile of rope to meet guidelines?
