  1. For several years now I've used a bookmark list to keep track of any puzzles that I've solved but not found. When I find them I remove them from the list. However, my list has now reached 1000 and it won't let me add any more to the list. Anyone had the same problem and what metho did/do you use to track your unfound puzzles?

    Earwigo

    I've tried to request access to Earwigo but not yet had a response. Is this platform still available?
  3. Not sure if anyone's still following this thread but I have the same issue. I've followed everything that's been suggested above but it doesn't work. Doesn't even show a still image. Nothing. Any other suggestions please? Also don't understand why Groundspeak (above) say they don't support gifs anymore when I can still see loads of cache pages, incuidng some very recent ones, that contain animated gifs!
  4. Should GS decide it's ok for a challenge cache to be logged as found by those not meeting the challenge I would immediately archive my challenge caches. I put in a lot of effort to qualify for my challenges before publishing them and will not let anyone that hasn't log them. You'd better go and archive them now, because they all appear to have been found and logged by a number of people who haven't qualified. http://coord.info/GLGZ423F http://coord.info/GLGBV5V1 http://coord.info/GLGBDRPH http://coord.info/GLGZ40GT Those are notes and I clearly stated logged as found. Big difference, but you already knew that. . This is already the case. You cannot force anyone to do anything more than find the cache and sign the log. You can challenge them but nothing more.
  5. I love challenge caches! They often give me ideas for my caching plans and make me look for specific caches when I'm out and about, rather than just getting the numbers up (Unless the challenge is about numbers!) Not all the challenges are for me, however, but part of caching is recognisimg your limits and staying safe within them. For example, just because a challenge asks for 10 caches of D/T 5/5, it doesn't mean that I HAVE to do the challenge or that it shouldn't be allowed just because I myself don't want to do it. Different strokes for different folks. I don't think that a new icon is neccesary as it is more an attibute than a different cache type. Chirp caches don't get a different icon, for example, jjust an attribute; they're just a different type of traditional cache. An attribute would make them easier to search for too, as not all of them actually have the word "challenge" in the title! However, I do wonder whether there should be a ruling that you shouldn't place a challenge that you don't qualify for yourslf. I sometimes wonder about some of the more extreme challenges! Currently, there is nothing to stop anyone from finding and logging a challenge cache if they don't qualify. Not sure there's a way around this unless a Geochecker type thing can reveal the coordinates only when you've qualified? One last point- most challenges tend be quite, well...challenging! How can we enourage people to place challenge caches that appeal to more poeple, especialy to newbies or occassional cachers? For example, find 500 caches in total; find a cache on every day of the week; find a cache for 10 consecutive days. Happy caching!
  6. Not unless it's already been submitted for review...
  7. Check this out https://www.facebook.com/FreeReplacementTagsForMissingTrackables?ref=ts&fref=ts
  8. What if I change my GPSR unit? Will I still be able to re program my chirp?
  9. Yeah, I've never found these forums to be particularly easy to use and the Facebook one means we can more easily share pictures too! There's only one Lincoln.
  10. Ignore my last post. Just relised that this thread relates to Lincoln v2, as opposed to the classic UK original Lincoln. Lol!
  11. I thiught Lincache was a brand new group. I've just joined their Facebook group. For me it's a much more useful way of networking with local cachers than these forums.
  12. Hi all. I definitely don't understand everything your saying about this but maybe you can help me. I'm just getting into paperless caching but the LOC and GPX files that I download don't seem to include the hints. How do I do this please? Andy (Tentmantent)
  13. Reading this thread has probably saved me £hundreds! Had a problem with the screen on my Geko 301 and nearly chucked it. Their helpline guided me through what turned out to be a screen contrast glitch and all's well once more. Why can't every helpline be as brilliant as this one? (Although it did take 20 mins to get through- it's well worth waiting) And thanks for the tip about the 0808 number- more savings!
