Cache found issue: found vs distinct numbers

Cache found issue: found vs distinct numbers
tlfought replied to tlfought's topic in General geocaching topics
Can you give me directions on how to make GSAK find it? I have it installed I just don't know where to look. Thanks. -
Okay, I am curious about my status. The status says "You've found 1997 caches (1996 distinct) since your first cache...". Does this mean I have logged a cache twice? If so, what is the easiest way to figure this out? I have downloaded "My Finds" pocket query and it only has 1996 caches in it. So that doesn't appear to be a solution. Looking for some assistance. Thanks, Tom

Geocaching.com site update Feb 14th, 2012
tlfought replied to OpinioNate's topic in Geocaching HQ communications
I can't figure out how to get this to load. It saves a file 116103.user.js to my desktop, but that is it. Any chance of this script being tweaked to support terrain maps? -

Geocaching.com site update August 18th 2011
tlfought replied to OpinioNate's topic in Geocaching HQ communications
I think Groundspeak/Geocaching.com, the owners and the community, would greatly benefit from a beta test group. If not beta test, at least a group of site users and site developers to discuss proposed changes to the site before going live. In addition, it would be excellent if all the incredible suggestions here were somehow ranked and the community knew what the development status of these items were. Its a given, the community does not "own" the site. But in my hallucination the site owners and site users might collaborate better than what we are seeing today. Thanks. -
Challenges: Now that they are released
tlfought replied to NYPaddleCacher's topic in General geocaching topics
Discounting the whole worldwide challenge thing, as they more closely resemble locationless; Virtual: Go to a place. (used to log a picture) Log your experience. Challenges: Go to a place. Take a picture. Log your experience. It's not a geocache. Neither are virtuals. Correct, they aren't geocaches either. Sounds like we should pull earth caches too. That would be truly sad. -

Challenges: Now that they are released
tlfought replied to NYPaddleCacher's topic in General geocaching topics
No, they both follow the same concept. You think that virtuals and webcams are specific because there's only so many left of them today, and most of those are good. But most everything that you see submitted as challenges today (minus the invalid locationless ones) could have been submitted as virtuals. Imagine a herd of reviewers having to wade through all that carp. I guess I would need to see some specific examples because I don't see it that way. -
Challenges: Now that they are released
tlfought replied to NYPaddleCacher's topic in General geocaching topics
Challenges are a viable replacement for both virts and webcam caches (and LCs). I can't imagine a single virtual cache or webcam cache that cannot be a challenge cache. Pretty much spot on... Then why get rid of them at all and re-introduce them in a "challenge type of thing"? Because the new concept places the burden of reviewing them on the community instead of the reviewers. Virts and webcam caches, in my experience, are so specific that I can't imagine the CO being concerned of there being a burden. If there was a burden, the CO would simply archive the cache... I still believe they should be brought back. -

Geocaching.com site update August 18th 2011
tlfought replied to OpinioNate's topic in Geocaching HQ communications
Violent Agreement! Challenges need a separate site just like Waymarking.com Please remove from geocaching.com... Do challenges have anything at all to do with a GPSr? -

tlfought replied to NYPaddleCacher's topic in General geocaching topics
How are challenges remotely connected to geocaching? Seems to be a variant of Waymarking... maybe? nahhh. I would recommend bringing back virtual geocaches over challenges... Better yet, bring back webcam caches. I won't be doing any of these "so-called" challenges at this time. -
Geocaching.com site update May 4th 2011
tlfought replied to OpinioNate's topic in Geocaching HQ communications
Any chance of rolling these changes back? The site is quite unusable in its current state. Okay... it works. But there are too many SIGNIFICANT issues to have rolled out these changes... Do you guys have anyone doing QA? -
Yea this is very annoying. And also, the html formatting I had in place is no longer working as I had originally designed it.
