Jumpin' Jack Cache

Turtle....I just might take you up on that offer! Jumpin' Jack Cache and I are putting this on and he's been in contact with Bluegrassreviewer IronHorseReviewer (numerous times) on setting it up. The reviewers have been great and know the special circumstances involved the the DeLorme Challenge Caches. We are definitely set for a Jan 1, 2008 start though. I will contact you via GC.com.... fixed... I contacted all 3 Ky reviewers. IHR has been very helpful and encouraging & seems to be handling it for us. I'm sure they've all talked it over, though.

A link to the Pennsylvania DeLorme Challenge that works for us mere mortals (that one was scary) Thanks, palmetto.

fixed Hey, I'll buy ya supper Friday.

I know Vinny! Vinny is a friend of mine! Vinny would never, I repeat never, harm the goats! YEAH - RIGHT!!! I wasn't exactly worried about him actually harming the goats. It's just that they're my goats...

I agree with you that you are being treated unfairly by a bad reviewer. I wish you the best in getting this problem resolved. And, if the cache is approved, I will be happy to be one of the first finders to show support for you against the tyranny of evil power-hungry reviewers. And, I know what you are talking about; I have experiences much the same myself: Much as I have indicated recently in another thread, I am having a really bad problem here with two local reviewers regarding my new Radioactive Isotope Hotel cache; I first tried to emplace it in West Virginia, and for some bizarre reason, Keystone -- overreactive knee-jerk commie-sympathizer reviewer that he is -- rejected it for 15 different reasons. He continued to refuse to publish it even when I reminded him that there needed be no fear about genetic mutation among the local residents due to radiation leaking from the cache container, because everyone knows that West Virginia residents are already radioactive hillbilly mutants and therefore very robust, hardy and radiation-resistant. sigh... Anyway, getting on with my sad story, I then decided to move the cache into Maryland, where I resubmitted it, since I figured that Quiggle would be sure to approve it. Well, guess what? Quiggle refused to publish the cache as well, citing 23 different "irreparable violation" reasons! The nerve! As a result of this insanity exhibited by these reviewers, I not only have an appeal in process, but I am also petitioning GC to fire both of these reviewers and allow me -- with my demonstrated capacity for great wisdom and insight -- to take over their roles. ...grrrrrrr! That is exactly why I didn't mention that the needles I was supplying were radioactive. I have followed the sad saga of that unfairly unpublished cache... I'd be proud to have you sign your name on the log, just let me know when you're heading this way so that I can move my nanny goats to the far pasture. Please watch what you say about hillbillies, I is one... Thanks for your great note. If you ever need radioactive or even fissionable materials for your cache, please let me know; I can ship some to you via Fedex Overnite. Yes, I will be happy to log your cache, and please: no need to move the nanny goats to a far field -- I am sure that I would enjoy meeting them. And, as for being a hillbilly, I live in the mountains in a wilderness area, and drive an old beater for a car, so I fully qualify as one as well! Sorry man, I'm moving the goats.

Well... I'm having trouble getting my hypodermic needle exchange cache "Junkie Drawer" published even after offering to provide clean needles. The reviewer says it's because it's buried between the railroad tracks behind the elementary school but I'm pretty sure it's because I requested a special GC#---GCSMACK. I've got an appeal in...

No hurt feelings here and my toes retract automatically, just a good-natured tug on your chain I'm usually ready to hit the door any time, just give a holler.

And how about those nanos on payphones, I can spot them a mile away

Mind if I borrow that line? <---------

Oops. Double post.

Adopt? Scroll down one line on forum homepage to find forum to make suggestions... Or just create a local group. Oops. Too slow again. What^he said.

Quick workaround... Create a 'team' account, list whoever is involved in profile, publish under 'team' account. Beg Talk to local reviewer. Doesn't add to personal stats but...it's not about the numbers, right? Edit again: Man, I was slow!

Dremel -- one m, still not sure how to pronounce it. Bought one and it took me 2 years to find anything to use it for . Lots of interesting attachments. Nice for touch-up but not good for the heavy work when it comes to rock (I tried). Stick with big(ger) bits and /or hammer & chisel if your rock is tough enough.

On the 'Output tab' make sure include images is checked. Also play with the pixel size. 300 x 300 or I've used 150 x 150 with success. I'm still having trouble getting a good map to show up. I think its a PQ issue from Groundspeak with the info they are providing. I'm going to keep playing around with it and see what happens. Thanks, but I'm still lost. Which "output " tab? Do you mean the "main" tab in SunriseXP? I'm afraid I'm still not getting it, images are not in the html file generated by GSAK, can't see them on the PDA or on my computer, they don't seem to be downloading. I don't use GSAK so I can't help you there. Sounds like there is a setting in GSAK you have turn off. Maybe someone else that uses it can help you. Seems like that must be it, I'll keep plugging at it. Thanks again.

Maps? Photos? I can't get them onto my PalmZ22, am I missing something? (Wouldn't be the first time.) I get PQs, use GSAk, then SunriseXP as described above, then hot sync them to the Palm & view them in Plucker. I do see links in some places where images should be but they lead "nowhere", images and/or maps are not loaded onto the PDA. Any idea which step(s) I'm not getting?

Glad to hear you kept on caching. There is a good name for those types but this is not the place. I'm glad that you plan to visit us, my offer here and the offer in my email are genuine. I'm new to the game/sport but I love the region. I must say that it also is disappointing (stinks) when others in the same state buy into stereotypes. That being said, from memory: Rowan, Wolfe, Magoffin, Floyd, Perry, some of the city of Pikeville, the city of Cumberland and there's a nice local winery in Letcher I may have missed 1 or 2 . Not sure of those farther west, maybe Airmapper can chime in? Farther east, there's always VA. Oh, and there is always what we "sophisticated" hillbillies refer to as "consumable folk art". edit:add last paragraph and attempt to fix quote thing

I'm sorry to make this my first post in these fora, but I am from Eastern Kentucky and I am offended. The fact is that in that area, it is just as likely that the people who did that are from elsewhere, maybe even Lexington. OP: Please don't let this incident dissuade you from coming back to our area, there are idiots everywhere. budophylus: come on down to our area & cache, get to really know the rest of the state. I'll even go with you, maybe buy you a beer afterward if we're not in a dry county--and neither I nor any of my friends will trash your ride. I can't promise that no one will, again, there are idiots everywhere.
