I don't know the answer to "how long", but I will point out that this the weekend of the Block Party at HQ. I'd bet on staff being *quite* busy with that, and that it may well take longer than usual for someone to read your review. I've seen some negative product reviews, so I'm thinking that if the review makes sense, ie, the negativity is explained, it's probably going to be shown

Connecticut, New York and Pennsylvania I just set up a query for those 3 states, I asked to see Letterboxes with Terrain 3.5 or higher - got 36 caches, some in all three states, no problem. Perhaps triple check that you haven't altered some other setting such that your query is returning too many caches....

There is no distance limit. First, create an all US States pocket query. You do this by selecting all the US states in the states/provinces box, holding down the control key as you highlight each state. You might omit Alaska Hawaii. You might just copy this query of mine http://www.geocaching.com/pocket/gcquery.aspx?guid=895abdf8-09c8-46c9-89ff-6b8687e0cd4b then select the cache type and the D/T combo - I assume you mean D 1 Terrain 4.5 Now preview the query. I see 8 of these in the US states

From a reviewer's perspective, I have ZERO interest in advising on whether a cache merits special consideration re archival v forced adoption (I'd just as soon be trying to determine the "wow factor" on virts). As a player, I'd vastly prefer to see a listing properly preserved by being archived under the ownership of the account that placed it. Forced transfer destroys cache history, it does not preserve it. Early in the days of the site, Groundspeak made an error in transferring listings. They recognized this error and stopped. The basis of the listing service is that the cache and listing belong to the person who placed and submitted. See the Terms of Use, section 3 Ownership http://www.geocaching.com/about/termsofuse.aspx

Trackables are a side game, and not swag, or trades. Unfortunately, a good many cache owners, especially of "hotels", use language like, "please only take one if you leave one", which helps drive the sense of the TB as swag. Example: I once placed a small trading cache. It started with 3 fine trade items. The FTF took one, left nothing (apparently assuming that's some kind of "right" attached to FTF). The next finder took one item, left trackable. The next finder took the trackable, one trade item, left 2 TBs. The next finder took 2 TBs. Cache now empty of anything but the log. The last cacher, who found a cache with a log and 2 TBs, and took both TBs leaving nothing, behaved appropriately. The other finders ripped off the cache, taking swag, leaving no swag.

Based on the info you provided, I speculate that you found an unpublished cache, likely placed by mikeberg62. You may or may not have any luck returning this to him. http://www.geocaching.com/profile/?guid=a8f72d2d-018c-49be-92c0-c4442ad1c886

The physical address for the Disney hotel there is 1050 Century Drive Lake Buena Vista, Florida 32830-8433

If you are asking about the Greasemonkey script, then it's just you

I'm not sure what you want with, "text list". If you visit the GSAK forums, you can download a macro that will take all the caches in a filter or database, and add them to a bookmark list. Create the list first, so you can select it from your list of bookmarks.

I just received a couple of log deletion notices. All is good with this now. Thanks for the fix

Here's an illustrated Help Center article that might be useful http://support.Groundspeak.com/index.php?pg=kb.page&id=234

Hello luwee - you have a 3 unpublished caches, they are not ENABLED. At the top, you see this (size of text exaggerated by me - not as it actually appears): You need to click the Submit for Review button at the bottom of that message. Here's a link to one of the cache pages http://coord.info/GC5887E The reviewer asked some questions in a log with also DISABLED the cache, questions which you answered. The reviewer note says,"please post a reviewer note on your cache page and then enable the listing. If you don't enable the listing, I will not see your response and won't be able to continue the review process. I realize that this is a lot of specialized vocabulary - the difference between one kind of log and another. You need to ENABLE - you can do that as a log, or by clicking the Submit for Review button in the green pane at the top. Good luck! I accidentally clicked the Submit for Review button on a cache you wrote up in May, so having unintentionally enabled your cache, I've now disabled it again. You should see those 2 actions as logs in your email. If you mean to have that cache read, and published, enable it again - or use the Submit for Review button.

You can buy a travel bug tag and activate it, and then just use the code, without releasing the tag; "etch the code on my little bobblehead". I wouldn't do it this way, myself, as I think it makes your trackable less recognizable and more apt to disappear as a swag item in someone's hands. If you want it to be trackable and have its own page on Geocaching.com, you have to pay for that. For a few trackables, the tags are the cheapest option. It's also to possible to purchase codes in bulk, but that's for manufacture of coins, there's minimum purchase. See the pinned threads in this forum about geocoins. I don't think this at all what you're wanting.

I don't think it's reluctance, either they don't notice or they don't know they can or they're not playing any more. I've seen cache owner logs to TB pages saying, "your bug is not in my cache, please mark missing". If they knew they could do it, I assume they would do it. In looking at a "nearby caches" list, I saw coin +multiple TBs indicated in a cache I own. Seemed off to me so I walked out and checked it. Marked Missing the coin and a TB. There really were 3 TBs in cache. If I hadn't noticed that in the info column of the cache list, I doubt I'd have realized how many trackable were supposedly in that cache. I think many cache owners are oblivious to changes in the listing - ie, NM icon set, TBs in cache.

Hi Walts Hunting. The previous log deletion notice included a link to the deleted log (oddly referred to as "this listing". The log exists with the other archived logs.

I don't know if this is an accident or by intent, but I received a Log Deletion notice, there's no link to the deleted log. The "visit listing" link, which in the past has gone to the log, now goes to the listing. That's fine, and makes sense too ;-) - I verified by posting another log under my player account and deleting it under my admin account. Link to listing, link to person deleting log, no link to log. Just wanted to be sure that this was intentional. If it was by design, it means the person whose log has been deleted no longer has any way to see it. I think this would be a mistake, but I can also see some rational for it. If this is how it's going to remain, it calls for editing the Help Center articles that deal with log deletion. Some edits are needed in any case thanks

http://support.Groundspeak.com/index.php?pg=request Request Details How would you categorize this request?: 06. Souvenirs- it's one of the request topics built into the contact form - given that they're set up to handle it, I'd send a request and let them handle it.

I just received my first new format email through the site. The senders profile is provided as text but not as a link. This could get to be nuisance. I hope that this is not by design? the green text at the bottom are live links

Does geocaching.com still convert everything to JPG? Or is it now possible to upload GIF or PNG images without having them converted? Geocaching.com hasn't converted "everything to a JPG" for as long as I've been uploading to the site - since early 2003. I can't speak to prior to that. The message on image file uploads now, as for the last 11+ years, "File upload supports the following formats: jpg, gif, bmp and png." There used to be info on file size - gone now.

The TB was logged into the cache in March 5 2012. The cache was logged as destroyed in May 2012. Your TB went missing back then along with some others. The cache owner marked missing the trackables that were lost at that time. My condolences.

Traditional..147 Multi-cache...11 Virtual Cache..3 Event Cache....6 Mystery Cache..6 Lab Cache......11 Total Caches Owned ..7,686 Dude! 7600+ owned caches ;-) you're one busy guy. I speculate that perhaps the Lab Caches FINDS total has been wrapped into this number? 10 Labs at Woodstock might have had that many finds.

Interesting - the coords were magically altered on entry. N 65 16,164 E 21 32,556 became N 65° 18.733 E 021° 41.267 The previous version of the CSP was handling commas okay as far as I know. I assume it's possible to get this fixed as it has worked in the past. To Gitchee-Gummee re use of commas in coords, the Swedes do it and I know the French do it too. It may be news to you (it was to me) but I've seen it quite a bit, and the previous cache report form handled it okay.

It's far more useful to make this note on the TRACKABLE page. he cache owner likely didn't place that trackable, and may not be terribly interested in its fate. The trackable owner may care. If an admin, such as myself, looks at the trackable page, a log on it is much more useful. Logs to caches, "TB not in cache" don't specify which TB dropped when... and now I'll go look at the caches that khampson01 has hunted, and mark the trackables missing.

You may be seeing places where virtual parts of caches are near physical or virtual parts of other caches. The actual physical elements of each cache are going to be 161m or 528Ft from each other. When writing up a cache report for a Traditional cache that's too close to an existing Traditional cache, you'll get this message, "That location is unavailable. Please select a location that's outside of a red circle." Two red circles can overlap, but they can't overlap beyond their centers. Two caches at the minimum distance will show overlapping red circles. I've edited an image that you would have seen in creating one of your cache pages, putting the cache image in the center of some overlapping red circles. Those caches are okay, they meet the minimum distance. None of the caches is INSIDE the red circle of another. The red circles themselves can overlap. I hope this helps
