    ESPN GeoCoin Fantasy Football League

    in Trackables

    So far the commish hasn't chimed in here but it looks like we will have enough to make a league. I emailed him to see if he is interested in the league and defending his companionship. I forget it he or his wife took first.

     

    He needs to defend his COMPANIONSHIP if he beat his wife but he needs to defend his championship from the rest of the players in the league.

    Don't grab it if you can't log it same day!

    Hey SLAPSHOT. I don't want to get on your case or anyone else. Sometimes trackables are dropped off in areas that are vacation hotspots and people don't have a chance to immediately log them in. We travel to Orlando regularly and visit caches with a lot of other visitors. We commonly find coins and TB not logged in to caches. We will post a note on the trackable page saying we picked it up and will wait on the previous cacher to place it in the cache and then place it on our watchlist. If there is no activity after 1 week (plenty of time to get home and log the trackable) we will try to contact the last person that has the trackable in their inventory. If no response we will then grab it. This gives the previous cacher time to correctly log the item and give it the correct miles. It will also let the trackable ownere know that is in our possession. We also always try to log a note when trackables listed in caches are not present.

    A little Canadian joke

     

    After the North American Beer Festival, all the brewery presidents

    decided to go out for a beer. The guy from Corona

    sits down and says, 'Hey Senor, I would like the world's best beer, a

    Corona .' The bartender dusts off a bottle from

    the shelf and gives it to him.

     

    The guy from Budweiser says, 'I'd like the best beer in the world,

    give me 'The King Of Beers', a Budweiser.' The

    bartender gives him one..

     

    The guy from Coors says, 'I'd like the only beer made with Rocky

    Mountain spring water, give me a Coors.' He gets it.

     

    The guy from Molson Canadian sits down and says, 'Give me a Coke.'

    The bartender is a little taken aback, but gives

    him what he ordered.

    The other brewery presidents look over at him and ask, 'Why aren't

    you drinking a Molson's?'

     

    The Molson Canadian president replies, 'Well, I figured if you guys

    aren't drinking beer, neither would I.'

     

    Hope you like it, eh!

    Just Getting Started

    Good luck with your new addiction.

     

    The people in these forums are great at helping answer your questions and also very generous. We still read posts here daily after 3 years. Watch for the occasional contest (cointests) here as you may have a chance to win new coins, we don't see them as much anymore but we have done quite a few here and won 5-6. Got some very nice personal coins. This was great when we first started and had no coins to trade.

    Great looking coin. Remember "stressed" spelled backwards "desserts" Just saying. :laughing:

     

    Thanks for pointing that out. On the way to get some shakes to cool off in the summer heat. 1/2 price at Sonic for the summer solstice.

    Congrats to the reciepents and thanks to the mystery gifter. We just created a new cache based on all the missing geocoins out there before seeing this post. We noticed when we were at Geowoodstock that all the coins to move seemed to be proxies because the real ones go missing. Of the 12 trackables we traded 7 proxies, 1 real coin, and 4 travel tags. We started a cache 7 years ago for geocoins called the geocoin vault (still active and visited 2 weeks ago) which hasn't seen a geocoin in it for about a year. This new cache proxy bank is starting with 5 proxy coins. Hope to at least keep these moving and allow cachers to collect icons, not the coins.

    Problems unlocking with saved file

    in Wherigo

    Posted

    Hello,

     

    Has anyone else had problems with the saved file not unlocking the Wherigo cartridge on Wherigo.com? We have completed 3 cartridges in Florida in the last 2 weeks. Got all to the final, got the completion code and then saved the cartridge. Get home to log on Wherigo.com and when we upload the gws file it says that the cartridge was not completed. When we type in the code it is not recognized. The first one thought that possibly we had copied the code incorrectly. The one done today was very careful with writing the correct code (not the best handwriting) but will not recognize or unlock on any of these cartridges. We really enjoy the Wherigo idea - it was the reason we bought a garmin colorado (a week before the oregon came out- wish we knew that ahead of time). Thanks for any help or suggestions.
