Actually, no. You can see the GC code once you fill out the form and your cache page is created. You don't need to have it published.

I agree with that entirely.

How do you change your personal forum title?

Similar to how you can watch a cache's activity, can you watch a specific user's activity?

I don't understand what you're asking. And I'm not sure why this is in the Travel Bug forum. B. Sorry. See edited version at top.

If I want a tb to travel via the GeoWoodstock XI attendees, what cache listing do I bring it to?

Only if you're a premium member.

How do I make a Groundspeak account and post to the Geocaching forums?

Since I live in Central Florida, and since GeoWoodstock XI will be held in semi-ish Central Florida, I want to ask how likely this TB mission could be fulfilled. THE TB'S MISSION IS AS FOLLOWS, SHOULD THE IN-ANIMATE OBJECT CHOOSE TO ACCEPT IT: To be placed in Florida's most favorited traditional cache, GC15RQB - A Cool Cache, as close to Geowoodstock XI's date as soon as possible. Since people are coming from all over the world to this event, hopefully, someone traveling to Australia after this can take the TB to the 2,000,000th Active Geocache which lies in Australia. After it visits Australia, I would like it to come back to local caches. ---END OF MISSION SUMMARY--- So, how likely do you think it is for that to happen?

Actually, now I see that you already placed it. Never mind.

You don't just need permission to place one on private property; many parks and bike trails and other government-owned areas require you to have permit for them. If you need somewhere to put it, then just go find a light pole with a liftable skirt in a multi-business parking lot.

Even though it's public land, most government owned places require you to have permission or a permit, since it has a potential to disturb the nature.

The OP is the same one who started another thread stating that Geocaching is like "traditional hide-and-seek", therefore, we do not need to sign log sheets anymore! All we need to do is "see" a cache!!!! How excieing I am going to head out and get a bunch of T5 tree climbs tomorrow Responding to the first quote, the case was as follows. I want to make a scale model of the solar system on a bike trail. I calculated all the spots the different planets should be (including Pluto which is a planet), and when I tried to submit my first cache, it turned out it was 200 and something feet away from another cache. This is what annoys me. The "it" mentioned in a previous post is the cache in it's location. If you cannot climb trees, and cannot retrieve the cache, you can send a pic of it the CO and claim the find. People attach pics all the time and their log stays up!

If Warwick Davis tries that on any of our caches that require climbing, I'll pop in my Willow DVD and watch it in tribute to his acting career. Then I'll delete his log, because seeing a cache and finding a cache are two different things. Let Warwick Davis worry about Warwick Davis, and let floridabiker1 stop trolling for controversy. I have seen before in online logs, people say that they didn't have a pen, so they attached a picture of it. Since a picture is valid, you should be able to email a pic to the CO, and claim the find. Also, you did find it just by spotting it. In traditional hide-and-seek, without tagging, if you see the person, you found them. Same thing in Geocaching. Also, I am not trolling. Thank you very much.

What if Warwick Davis or Deep Roy found a cache in a 7-foot tree? You can send a picture to the CO if you can't retrieve it, and still get a smilie.

I think it should be a feature for ANY member, since you can see new caches in the list. Speaking of features for regular members, I think COs should honor the first-regular-member-to-find.

I think caches should be able to get permission for public buildings to have a logbook in their main lobby, with the building being the cache.

Well, if you spotted it in a tree, you found it, so you should be able to claim your find. What should you do then? You can't post a picture online because it shows the location. Could you e-mail it to the owner, perhaps?

sigh Pardon?

Why, interested in placing a cache there?! First off, you are not the poster of this topic, so why are you responding? I would like to see what the historical significance here is, the location, and stuff like that. I'm not interested in placing a cache there, in fact, I am trying to encourage the poster of this topic to place one there. Chances are that I don't even live too close to the cache location.

I'm not a premium member, and I don't have the app, so I'm not sure about this, but my guess would be that you need to use the official Geocaching app, which is overpriced at ten bucks, available here.

How many of you are annoyed by the 0.1 mile cache saturation rule? I mean, come on. I understand that it's so finders won't get confused, but you could have two caches, say, 250 feet apart from each other and you still won't get confused. So, I am making this petition to have as many people as possible state that they wish to lower the cache saturation policy down to 250 feet at the maximum, and then present this petition to Groundspeak. So who's with me?

I am sorry for all of the argument that I caused. I do realize that the guidelines do say that you must obtain GPS coordinates from a GPSr, and I appreciate that you're sticking to the guidelines. My small point was just that a person such as the poster of this topic MAY want to use the Google Maps method, if they can see the location of the cache well enough, even though it's not following the guidelines. One common violation of the guidelines that I see alot, and annoys me is that a lot of caches, especially ones on bike trails, are not placed with permission.

What is the URL of the archived cache anyways?

Well, you're not a premium member, so forget the pocket queries. Just look for caches with 1 terrain and a park and grab attribute.
