KingofYoda

I had looked at GSAK and considered it, but I didn't want to pay the money. I tried cliffhanger's suggestion, and it worked! Thank you all for the suggestions. They were a great help, and it's nice to be able to come to the forum for help like this.

I have yet to actually sign YAPIDKA (Yet Another Park I Didn't Know About, but I am looking forward to doing a park geocache soon.

Hi I'm somewhat new to geocaching, and I have downloaded easyGPS to my computer for it's obvious benefits. I love it, but there is one problem. When I download waypoints to easyGPS, it is very finicky in that it sometimes won't let me change the symbols from normal 'geocache' to 'geocache found'. I change it in the edit waypoint pop up that appears when I right click on the waypoint to change and push edit waypoint, and it even says that it's changed in that popup screen. But when I go back to the normal map screen/list of waypoints, the symbol still shows the normal 'geocache' symbol and says 'geocache' instead of 'geocache found'. Please help because I would really like to have all of my geocaches organized on my computer and also onto my GPS when I download the waypoints to it.

Wow! These are all amazing. I was wondering if anyone could use my name (KingofYoda) and make Yoda showing liege to geocaching colors with a crown signifying that geocaching is the king of Yoda or something like that. Thanks a bunch .

I think one of the requirements for no longer being a newbie is if you can read the additional hints without using the decryption key.

I was at home with my family one afternoon, when a friend of ours stopped by just to talk. In a little while he had pulled out his GPS and was talking about a geocache that was right by our house. We had no clue what he was talking about so he took us all over to find it. The next Christmas I got a GPS and have started finding.

I recently started as well, and I got a DNF on a 1.5 difficulty after five succesful caches . Hopefully (well, not hopefully) it was muggled so I don't feel like such a newbie.

I'm going to say it was a Lamely Placed Cache.
