Thanks, it worked for me today.

Has anybody tried the Wherigo or the wirelessly exchange on the Colorado? I’m just wondering how the Wherigo game looks on the Garmin? I am also wondering how far away will the wireless exchange work?

I don’t want to see this Forum turn into “Who’s Coin Vender has the best policy” when dealing with customers Geocoins. I think Geocoinstore did an excellent job with my coins and handled every question I had for them in a timely manner. I would recommend them! However, Anthus raised valid concerns about How and Why our Geocoin orders were exceeded past what we ordered? Why were they trading our coins that we didn’t know existed? I wanted my LE coins to be Limited! Not to exceed its limit!

Floaters! OK, how do I get my floaters? I also had 50 LE coins made. Now there are 55 LE coins? Thanks Anthus for bringing this to my attention. I will keep watching this forum to see what happen next. If anybody has an untrackable geocoin of mine please let me know. I will send them a real one of mine.

They told me this was a Pocket Cache!

Maybe it's time to just do away with counting finds altogether. If it doesn't matter anyway, then why should we need to count them. Maybe they should change the word FOUND to "Come Across".

I agree. This website doesn't have to break down things for everybody. If you are interested do it yourself. For those who are really into stats, Fizzymagic wrote these neat apps that break everything down for you. Numbers of caches by type, size, state, country, terrain, difficulty, average terrain, average difficulty, number of unique finds. Its perfect for the stats hungry people among us and the rest of us don't have to look at a cluttered stats page. I don't think breaking down the stats would hurt! It would just show more in detail what other cachers are finding. I think this would start shaping the game in the right way. Let’s say if you only do 1/1 micros and have a 1000 finds, then you would be able to tell what kind of caches the person likes and does. Let’s say 800 pocket caches a person did, it would show it in the stat. So on, so on! I think this might open up people’s eyes a little more about the way people cache. It can only enhance the Stat page!

I really hope this forum kick starts something! ThePropers, thanks for adding your input on the matter. I would love to see more ideas people have.. I think breaking down the stats further would be a better option for everybody (unless people are scared to show there real stats). That was only a rough draft that I did. I think Geocaching.com can make a better STATS page and bring the numbers to the right fields. I really think it’s time to do something about it or they will start losing geocachers left and right ( including me).

I have been gazing though the entire forum out there about Pocket Caches, is it a cache, what makes it a cache and so on. I don’t think the problem lies with what people are finding, but with how Geocaching.com counts the caches we find. Well, I had a little time after work today, so I started messing around with “Geocache information for the user page” (where they count the finds). Here’s what I came up with! I think if they broke down the finds a little more in detail, it would make everybody happier. Then who cares if somebody did 800 pocket caches? You will be able to see how they jump up to 4000 finds in one month (week). I just would like to see some of the integrity back in geocaching again. What do you think? Something needs to be done about it! Or is it to late? Nice touch with the Pocket cache Icon

I paid good money for my personal Geocoin Icon and now were given them away cheaper? I quess it's a good idea for Geocaching.com as a whole, but feeling a little short handed.

The Moun10Bike coin is the most commercialized Geocoin on the market, sellling for a $1000 on ebay.

The geocoinstore had problems with Fox-and-the-hound Coin, so they had to make sure everything was alright with my coin. They said it should be out this week or early next week. Sorry for the wait! -footTRAX I'm waiting myself...

Great job C&K! They look nice. -footTRAX

I was told there are only 30 coins left! Last chance! -footTRAX
