  1. I think it's about time GS implimented a world wide ranking system on their site much like cacherstats.

     

    Furthermore everyones ranking should appear below their find count as well as below their name on the forums.

    this an exsillint idea and they should do it everyone gets one creddit per find and looses a creddit for evry speeling and grammer errer in there forum posts, loose all creddits and your banned!!

     

    :P

  2. The correct answer is probably to do a PQ for caches within whatever radius from home you're prepared to consider (e.g. 10 miles), export to GSAK, then sort the names and look for obvious clusters.

     

    You'll get a listing like this ...

    'Adams treasure'
    'Agden View'
    'All Fenced In'
    'Ammo'
    'Amnesty for TB Hoarders'
    'Another one bites the dust.'
    'Are you snookered?'
    'Are you stumped in Bluebell Wood'
    'BMVC Anthem 10: At  whose bright presence'
    'BMVC Anthem 11: Darkness flies away'
    'BMVC Anthem 12: Hail, hail, hail, hail!'
    'BMVC Anthem 1:  Hail, Smiling Morn'
    'BMVC Anthem 2: That tips the Hills with Gold'
    'BMVC Anthem 3: Whose Rosy Fingers'
    'BMVC Anthem 4: Open wide the Gates'
    'BMVC Anthem 5: The Gates of Heaven'
    'BMVC Anthem 6: All the Green Fields'
    'BMVC Anthem 7: That Nature doth enfold'
    'BMVC Anthem 8: Darkness ...'
    'BMVC Anthem 9: ... flies away'
    'Beyond The Grave - Sheffield Cemetery Multi'
    'Birdwell Obelisk'
    'Bishops Garden'
    'Black Pearl'
    'Black Widow '
    'Block 123 Evie In!'

    ... from which it's obvious there's a series called BMVC Anthem {whatever}, for example.

     

    Perhaps a PM can give you detailed instructions on how to proceed if it's not already obvious from the sketch above.

  3. What do you think of "Water Woodland Walkies" or "Wonderful Woodland Walkies"????
    Which of th above do you like???

    The names are fine. Reminds me of one I adopted, "Birdlip Walk", whose name I've never seen the need to change. I honestly don't think it makes much difference to finders provided the name isn't deliberately misleading or offensive.

  4. You could simply name it after the wood, with no further adornment.

     

    For example, if your cache was in the woodland that the A1082 runs through (just south of Sheringham) then you might call it

    • Sheringwood

    (as listed on the OS 50K map) ...

     

    ... or one of

    • Broadwood's Dale
    • Eastwood
    • Maddis's Dale
    • Old Wood
    • Pretty Corner
    • Sheringham Wood
    • The Plains

    (for the relevant patch of land as described on higher-resolution maps).

  5. Another six months have passed, so it's time for an update.

  6. The only rule should be that the winner selects the next month's theme (or non-theme).

     

    It doesn't need to be a photographic theme - my "Favourites" one worked well. Other ideas:

    • D/T/T Grid: each cache a different Diff/Terrain and Type.
    • Alphabet: each cache name starts with a different letter (or number, or symbol).
    • Dearly Departed: the cache has been archived for at least a year.
    • History Trail: each cache published in a different quarter-year.

    Come on, use your imagination.

  7. OP> ... interesting containers ...

     

    There's one nearby that is a (plastic) banana hanging a little way up a tree. It gets loads of favourite votes, but to me it just looks like conspicuous littering (remnants of a student night out, that sort of thing). It just makes me cringe. I know I'm in the minority on this but, still, I'd be wary of "interesting" containers.
