    Can Groundspeak create a Cache Series Attribute?

    in General geocaching topics

    Posted

    First: I don't like "Power Trails" but I like "serials".

     

    Normally(!) Power Trails are a hudge number of micros every 0,1m with seems to have the only target to get as most "Fonud It" as possible in a short time. Serials are a couple of caches to one topic or they lead you through a nice walk without a cache every mile.

     

    Second: I don't think an icon "Serials" will help.

    There may be several serials in an area and so you don't filter at exact one. Or the caches of a serial are not lacated at one place (e.g. the Project Ape caches was situated around the world - but thats an extreme excample)

     

    Either you can search by keyword with the name of the serial (if it is mentioned in the names) or create a bookmark. If the owner create it, he can make a note in the listings. If the owner didn`t create it, every one is free to make his own. Then you can be shure to have a result of exact this serial.

    Scuba diving caches

    deep diving submarine? whats the GC number?

    link

    I want to put one of those mini ammo cans on the ISS.

    Just for interest: which coords have the ISS?

    You would have to publish the ephemeris instead of coordinates. At 18,000 miles per hour, it would be difficult to keep up with the traveling cache.

     

    This conversation was really prophetic: GC1BE91 International Space Station

    Published February 3

     

    (But there are allready other threads regarding this cache)

    Nightcaches

    in General geocaching topics

    Posted

    I would love to see a shiny new icon just for night caches.

    The distinction between these and other hunts is certainly great enough to warrant its own icon.

    But this has been brought up before and TPTB haven't jumped on board.

     

    I don't agree. There are few Caches, which can also be done by light.

    And, apart of that, you will need more than one icon:

    - Nightcache Traditional

    - Nightcache Multi

    - Nightcache Mystery

    If not, you reciewe a new information but lose another more important (in my oppinion)

     

    I'm fine with the attribute "recomended at night", perhaps we can add an new attribute "only poosible at night".

     

    The only icon I'm missing is the combination of "Multi" and "Mystery". We have some of these Caches in Germany, where you first had to solve a puzzle and than run several stages.
