I also use the ZZZ on my Database queries at work, but i didnt though about using them here (or spaces). It´s a way of doing things but it´s not a solution. Some sort of search ttrough the waymarks would be nice. The Green box and the Strikethrough are there but you have to list all the waymarks to find them wich is not practical. For now i think i´ll use the Spaces or the zzz or something. Regards AS

Pois, confesso que a parte do caos nas categorias é o que me incomoda mais, mas, pode-se sempre ignorar, e, o que é certo é que há coisas que cabem em mais que uma categoria. O ideal mesmo era que o memso ponto pudesse ser associado a várias categorias, mas, isso deve colocar vários problemas pois é impossivel validar essas coisas á distancia. De qq maneira, vamos ver como é que as coisa correm. Eu acho que tem potencial. Abraço AS Falas como se aquilo tivesse sido criado agora. Eu acho que o Waymarking foi um tiro falhado. Dá-me a clara sensação que não tem salvação. É daquelas coisas que se não arrancar logo com uma massa de contribuições sólidas, fica condenado, e na minha opinião a anarquia intencionalmente instituida pela Groundspeak revelou-se a sentença de morte (lenta) do projecto. No que me toca, não contém comigo. De cada vez que por alguma razão lá vou, lembro-me do porquê do meu asco. Ainda agora fui dar uma espreitadela. De facto, ter na primeira página, abaixo da grande categoria "Animais" uma sub-categoria chamada "The Great Florida Birding Trail" .... Depois, é o carácter altamente nacional, dos EUA, entenda-se, que tudo aquilo tem. Vejamos as sub-categorias da grande categoria Monumentos: Monuments 9/11 Memorial Sites, American Civil War Monuments and Memorials, American Revolutionary War Veteran Graves, Blue Star Memorial Highway Markers, Dead Poets' Society Memorials, FIRST of its kind, Grave of a Famous Person, Medal Of Honor Resting Places, Megalithic Monuments, Monarchs of the World, Non-Specific Veteran Memorials, Occupational/Hobby Grave Stones, Out of Place Graves, Peace Poles, Pony Express Monuments Mais de metade dizem respeito apenas aos EUA. Aquilo não foi criado agora. Eu é que descobri aquilo agora. A parte da amaricanização é outra que me desagrada realmente, mas, isso existe em todo o lado. É mais uma que vai para o ignore list. Os gajos tem tendencia para olhar apenas para o próprio humbigo. Claro que há excepções. De qq maneira, havendo abertura para a criação de categorias cabe a quem quiser criar as categorias que lhe interessem. De qq maneira, parece-me que mais cedo ou mais tarde eles vão ter que restringir as categorias. Deixa o barco navegar que logo se vê. Eu não estou preocupado com isso.

I think it would be usefull. I can doa search for my waymarks but, if i want to find a waymark that is not published and is not on the Unfinished Waymarks (if it was declined doesn´t show in this list) i have to check them all to find it. Or, if the Unfinished Waymarks list would show the declined i think it would be very usefull.

I think it could work. I vote for it!

Opiniões são opiniões e, diz a experiencia, gostos não se discutem. Afinal, no Geocaching tn há quem não goste de micros, de caches mistério, de sacos de plastico, etc... Pessoalmente, estou a curtir o Waymarking e vejo-o como não como um substituto das locationless mas sim das caches virtuais. Há categorias bastante interessantes e educativas como por exemplo os Sitios Patromónio Mundial e outras que são uma grande tanga como os Sinais azuis ou as Cabines Telefónicas (das normais. Nem sequer são antigas ou tem uma qualquer caracteristica especial). No entanto, mais uma vez, gostos são gostos. Acho que o facto de catalogar as coisas de uma ou outra forma pode facilitar a localização de potenciais locais de interesse numa viagem. Para já, tenho-me entretido a criar vários waymarks de locais que considero interessantes, e, vou continuar. Se vai ter ou não interesse para uma comunidade mais alargada desconheço. A ver vamos, como diz o cego. Abraço AS

Hi, i joined the group yesterday. Dont know if it was the right procedure so i would be glad if you can help me. Anyway, you can coun me in. Regards Alberto

I Agree! Meanwhile, here are the bugs´and coins i´ve released: Traveling Dorkfish - http://www.geocaching.com/track/details.aspx?id=363837 - Traveling Canadiana ao Exterior - http://www.geocaching.com/track/details.aspx?id=365098 - Traveling OOKPIK - http://www.geocaching.com/track/details.aspx?id=584520 - In my hands Cruising Outside the US - http://www.geocaching.com/track/details.aspx?id=489013 - Traveling Shilo´s Singapore Geocoin - http://www.geocaching.com/track/details.aspx?id=578143 - Traveling Shilo´s ARKMO Geocoin - http://www.geocaching.com/track/details.aspx?id=384733 - In My hands Cruising the world - http://www.geocaching.com/track/details.aspx?id=477681 - Traveling Jordan's Skarloey - http://www.geocaching.com/track/details.aspx?id=673112 In my hands Sydney's Lady - http://www.geocaching.com/track/details.aspx?id=658855 - In my hands OOKPIK was released but i picked it up from a remote cache last weekend when we were returning home. Was just going to move it a bit, but, it started to rain (A LOT ) so we give up and headed home. Shilo´s ARKMO was the 2nd of 2 coins we had to release. The owner told us to put it where we like (remote or not) so we decided to leave one in a more remote area and release the other in a cache with more visits. The last ones, Jordan´s Skarloey and Sydney´s Lady came to our hands last week and are waiting to be released. The weather in Portugal is lousy. It´s raining a lot and we didn´t had the chance to go geocaching this weekend. The only cache we found last week is the new Lisbon Airport TB Hotel wich is on our way home and we dont think is the best place to release this bugs. As soon as the weather improves they´ll be on their way. There are some bugs in the hands of some known geocachers that we will start bothering if they dont start moving soon . If you need anything just mail us. Regards from Portugal Alberto and Cristina aka Manchanegra

Então os canitos e as raposas agora andam a comer ovomaltine??? Ainda se fosse Nesquik ainda compreendia. Sempre tem lá um coelhito que é capaz de ser mais saboroso para os ditos bichinhos . Falando de coisas sérias. As caixas das munições (ainda pensam que andamos a planear um atentado) . Já te envio um mail. Abraço AS

Ó diabo!!! O Ovomaltine cheira assim tão mal ? Se não gostarem de Ovomaltine tb podem comprar Isostar. As caixinhas são iguais. Só muda a cor (e o cheiro ). Voltando ás Lokilokis (ena que nome giro). Parece que há várias versões. Algumas não tem as abas de lado. Assim que tiver oportunidade vou fazer umas experiencias. Xau AS PS: Atão e as caixas com as balas prá metralhadora???

Me to. Never mind the mails i sent you. Regards AS

Pois. Depois, olhando melhor, percebi. Parece-me fita e, parece-me muito brilhante. Já apanhei pelo menos uma caixa dessas. Acho que foi aqui. Yep, cá está ela . Só não sei qual a resistencia da tampa a tanto abre e fecha, mas, esta parece que está para durar. Xau AS

Eu tenho ai em vista o aproveitamento de alguns contentores de produtos comerciais. Vou fazer uns testes e logo se vê, mas, a embalagem do Ovomaltine em plástico parece-me bastante interessante. Olha, que camuflagem é aquela? É autocolante ou é pintado? xau AS

Yeap! Do you? Do you? Do you? Do you? Do you? Do you?Do you? Do you? Do you?Do you? Do you? Do you?Do you? Do you? Do you?Do you? Do you? Do you?Do you? Do you? Do you?Do you? Do you? Do you?Do you?

And your mail

Got it last night, thanks! I've updated the database as well. 2 of my packages are in transit and 2 have already arrived (even overseas). Thanks again Go Jaybee and Damenace for all the help Got the Maine´s First Cache today. It´s a very nice coin , even if it isn´t trackable . I love the Fort Williams side . Thanks Andy

That's one of the original Canada geocoins. You can track them at http://www.geocoins.ca/home.php. I wouldn't attach a TB tag to it since it's not yours and it seems to be circulating nicely. I found one of that coins one of this days. I´ve done some research anda came to the same site but the coins is still placed in some other cache diferent from the one i found it. I will probably log it one of this days because it seems that the geocacher that placed it there is not interested in loging it, and then, release it again.

Hi, if you want i can release your bug in Portugal (if you prefer some other country you can check this thread http://forums.Groundspeak.com/GC/index.php?showtopic=141358 ). We released already one Geocoin that came from the states and we have two more from Canada that we will release soon. I Think the idea of each one buying a tag is a grear idea because you save the shipping costs, but, will you release only the tag or let the other one choose wich item to attach to the tag? And what about the copy tag? Each one could keep the other´s extra tag a release it later if necessary. To see other countries i believe the TB is one of the best choices. You can set a mission of colecting photos of the places he is visiting. We will be on Hollydays starting at the end of the week so we will only be able to do this after the 15th September. If you want just mail us trough our profile. Regards from Portugal Alberto & Cristina aka team manchanegra Sent email. You got a reply

Hi, I have this one : http://www.geocaching.com/track/details.aspx?id=502425 At the time i decided to do a laminated paper tag and let it go. It hasn´t traveled muchh but he has seen some micros. Maybe i´ll grab it again and put the real tag in him now that i´ve seen some solutions to make the tag smaller. Regards from Portugal Alberto aka manchanegra

Got them today . Apart from some small defects they are great. Mines are number 69-2 The small icon is working fine, but the normal one, in the TB page isn´t working yet. When do you think you´ll have the other coins available? I was thinking on buying some engines as travelers. i Think they´ll fit just fine in Microcaches. Regards Alberto Here they are: http://www.geocaching.com/track/details.as...f9-ac95b885d037 http://www.geocaching.com/track/details.as...15-ebaa14859527 http://www.geocaching.com/track/details.as...77-65eee18cba6d http://www.geocaching.com/track/details.as...77-65eee18cba6d

I´m still waiting for them . Maybe they get here today . I would like to take them to an event that is going to happen today at lunch time, but... hope they are there for that Nope! Got some from Germany but no trains in plain sight. Hope i haven´t to wait that the Tunnel Across the Atlantic is built

I´m still waiting for them . Maybe they get here today . I would like to take them to an event that is going to happen today at lunch time, but...

Payment sent. I have just one doubt ( Maybe you have answered it already but i´m too lazy to go and look for it). What is the Winers Circle Coin? Is it trackable?

Hi, I didn´t remeber if i´ve posted in an earlier thread or not, but, i would like one set. Also, if you´re interested in releasing a racer in Portugal just send me a mail. Regards Alberto

Hi, received your mail checked the site. When i´m was making the order i didn´t find any way to change the shipping fees for an international order. I think it would be better if you have 2 links in each set of coins. One for domestic orders and another for international ones. Or, if there´s another way, just let me know.
