cachecows209

Finally he commits. 6:30 a.m Saturday at the place of the event. (only for Tek)

I'm maybe not getting it but are all the caches going to be separate logs w/ next coords in them or are they all totally separate?! I'm confused

Amen my brother. Someone could hypothetically log like 1000 finds in a day likse that!!

sorry to hear Sanruft is out! JeepySR...U want in on this mayhem?!

Hey Laura and Sanruft....I can't email from school so i'll just have to post. I was thinking we could set up 2 courses. One by Ryan and/or I and 1 by you or someone else(hint..hint all u other stocktonians) so we could all participate?! I will call Straw Hat today and get the time slot reserved. I was thinking about where the corses should be and I was thinking maybe around brookside or near March lane somewhere... Maybe incorporate having to go to our houses and pick something up?! I don't know. E mail me back later tonight...And everyone else Ryan is putting the page up tonight so we can give every1 a month!! Sanruft my email is pnb524@comcast.net so you can email me with whatever you want to do or if you have any ideas on stuff...maybe a small presentation or something? BTW I hope Bill can be there so he can have an excuse to figure out how to get the rest of Ryan's caches(and mine) It should be fun o lets getiton Peter

October 2nd great for Ryan and I. I'll call Straw Hat and get a spot reserved for 12:00 to 3:00. we''l set up a course or something. Anyone want to help. Of hwere are you?!!

awesome. ill talk to ryan. were thinking pizza at Straw Hat on March right off i-5?!

Sanruft where are you guys from?!! Maybe we could joint it?

great idea. My uncle was on a rescue crew in port charleston. I was kinda aqskin the sasme question but since hes a geomuggle....... anyway again great sticked and i applaud you for taking the time to reasses the caches

I like how people actually take the time to get other people involved, I'm trying to get a club at school started up and am looking for interesting new ways to teach it even though I'm not that experienced. I have a friend with over 400 finds whos in on the scehme. Anyways, back to the discussion: My view on this is "more power to whoevers teaching if he/she can pull this off" I don't see other than walking several miles per day that it would take 12 hours but I guess the cost is alright. Again though, 12 hours is a long time!! Maybe I should start a class too!!! This class might actually work!! But if it fails miserably that'll be the end of that discussion.

how does the first week in october look for an event?! october 2nd or 3rd? october 23rd or 24th? I open for suggestions. It would just be a p&b getogether. no course jus meeting the new cachers in the area

I'd like to congratulate dadwool clan...man they're cookin'. They already have over 20 finds and theyve only been here a few weeks!!!!

that cow is bling-bling Thats so cool!!!!!!

okay here we go: Ryan and I are brainstorming and an event or two are in the making. We want just a pizza getogether but we also would like to host an event mayb out in white slough or somewhere. We were thinking of maybe having our scout troop host it in December. Anyway by this weekend we'll have a weekend to do it! And from the infamous Captain Tenneal....."Geeeetiton" and from blue collar comedy " geterdone" we'll "geterdone" soon

RyanCTek took me to a cache they had found (now archived) that you had to find a leser pointer at the first location and place it on this pvc pipe stand. There were 3 sets of notches and you had to go check each place the pointer pointed for the cache. It was really cool but would you take it away (if it wasn't archived, because some stupid kid points it in someones eye? I have gotten it in the eye and it doesn't cause eye damage. I agree, only long term exposure can cause eye damage.

Hey I found Chambers of Ripon and couldn't figure out how to get it out. Ryan went back and took credit I'm bummed but ill be back

Yup Ryan is intrigued by the idea of being in touch with the outside during our hour "outside time" in the pen

y?

My nearest 20 I have 6 hides and 9 finds. The other 4 I havent found and 1 got put up just recently.

Ryan I like how your complainin when you placed some caches like 4th of July #4!!! You don't like digging through bushes with garbage and bamboo is no different!!!!

Because it doesn't take too many iterations before you've exceeded the number of human beings on the planet. Someone I know got caught up in a pyramid scheme not long ago, and I couldn't believe how much trouble I had explaining the central problem to her. I calculated it...If every human being on the planet joined the pyramid scheme it would take 11 levels!!

If you gave me a month and a good solid cache dense place...I'd hit 400 before Ryan!!!

sorry guys great idea but too many wobbles..good luck with the league..I'm out

Do you always blame the LTF if your cache gets plundered? Of course not. Why would this be any different? As for the argument of PQs, One of the main reasons of the last 5 finds is to establish that the cache is still there and in good condition. What's the difference if the last log is a team, an individual or a competition team? Presumably the competition log will also contain any pertinent info regarding the cache. I don't see how that is an issue. Why Ewwww? I still don't see the negative effect this has on anyone. No, I don't blame the last to find, but I do CONTACT them. Who is in charge of watching for e-mails for the teams, and responding to them? I'm going to go look at the logs for this team and see that they've logged finds ALL over the place, on the same day and wonder. I would hope that some where on the team's page there is a list of the members and an explanation of the game they are playing. But if there isn't I would really start wondering. Hypotheticals aside, I believe that the double logging is what is truely what I am worried about. Not only is the site already hammered with regular people logging finds, but then we would increase the # of finds being logged by certain people, increasing their own frustration. And I do use the logs and the 5 logs in a PQ is very important to me. I travel for work, and usually the first time I've seen a cache page is when I look it up in a PQ. If, of the last 5 logs, two are from the same person, I've potentially lost some information that would be handy to have for finding that cache. Or about a nifty restaurant nearby, or good parking area, or neat store to visit. Or the DNF 4 people back that mentioned the police showing up after 6 pm and towing their car. I just don't think that double logging is the best way to play. I certainly would consider it rude that you are playing a game and posting something on my cache about it when you haven't given me the option of not participating (or of joining and playing myself). If I had a puzzle cache and put a piece in your cache, without asking your permission, would you maybe get miffed when folks log notes on your cache saying that they revisited it while doing my puzzle. (Some folks around here sure would!) The cache leagues are quiet about their game. And the SGPS scoring system is ignorable if you don't want to play. I just think that while this game has merit, playing it without double logging would be preferable. -J What about a group of cachers that cache together and tell the same story five times?!?!?!? It's the same thing!! I respect everyones complaints (there sure are a lot tof them) but will anyone step up and friggin make a web page for this game!!?? Puttin my 2 cents in when every ones trying to make a dollar out of 98 cents

Tell us when ur gunna place them cuz i know I want one!!
