  1. I seemed to have missed to boat on the last of the Appalachian Trail Series (Maine) LE combo Set (Silver and Bronze). I have all sets in the series except Maine. I am looking to trade for a Maine set for 2006 Massachusetts Geocoin RE(Nickel)/LE(Brass). I may have some extras in the AT series but will have to check my collection.

  2. Hi!

    Is there a way to find out if a cache owner is still active in caching? I found one of his virtual caches but he has not responded with a an ok to post. I looked at his geocaching logs and there hasn't been much activity for a couple of years. And all of his cache hides except for the virtual has been disabled.

     

    I would like to volunteer to adopt this cache. It is ashamed that cachers would have difficulties logging this cache if the owner does not respond.

     

    Cache: Historic Father Cache

    Owner: Hazmat

    Hi all, I have tried Gpxsoner, Gpxview, Gpstune on my axim,and can not get them to work? I down load the waypoints to the axim just fine, but can not get the programs to find or open them. I am new to all this so please be kind, lol.

    I copy and paste the file to the sync folder. I uninstalled gpxsonar but i will put it back on tomorrow and try again. What folder should it be in? Thanks. Jim.

     

    I have a Dell Axim and I use GPX Sonar. In my sync folder I have a directory called My Caches, this is directory I copy my the gpx file to. Once it syncs up I run GPX sonar. I go to the My caches folder and load the gpx file I need.

  4. Route pocket query deletion problem solution: Check this post in an earlier thread. .

     

    Thanks !! never noticed that little trashcan icon there.

     

    Nowe my ext question I have the in my cach along route page. I have 2 of the same routes. I got into this situation when I created the route but the page did not update so I created it again. Now I have 2. I can delete it it says that it can't be undone and I proceed, but it doesn't remove it from the page. Any help on this issue would be appreciated.

  5. I created a pocket query for a cache along route. I deleted the cache along route and now want to delete the pocket query. I get an error:

    For some reason I may have created 5 of the same pocket query and 2 of the same cache along route all of which I am trying to delete but cannot. The 5 PQs are still listed as well as the 2 CAR.

     

    Thanks!

  6. Maybe if it was an owner only option that didn't require a tracking number or note be entered.

     

    Perhaps even if it still required each traveler page to be accessed there would be one button to pull it back into your inventory.

     

    I could handle that being on TBs

     

    edit: thinking more.

     

    I guess if there was a Traveler owner page (similar to the PQ page) where you could check box several travelers and do the retrieve.

     

    (I'm getting there. :blink: )

     

    You're getting there! I like your suggestions an owner page that would allow a multiple retrieve function

  7. Hello!

     

    My apologies if this has been suggested before. As a geocoin collector, I like to drop my coins into events when I bring them. Dropping them all is easy! I simply select all of them from my inventory when I post my "will attend" log. However, retrieving them from the event is rather tedious. I have to go to each coin page separately, copy and past the coin number, and post a "retrieve from" log for each coin separately.

     

    I think a nice feature would be to have a "mass retrieve" option for all coins / TB's that you own. It could work in much the same way as when you drop them. On your profile page, under your inventory list could be a link called "mass retrieve coins/TBs". When you click on it, you're presented with a list of all coins and/or TB's that you own that are currently "not in your hands". You can select those you wish to mass retrieve along with typing a generic retrieve log ("Retrieving my coins from the event! Thanks!") to be posted to all the coin / TB pages. That would be a nice time-saver for folks with growing coin collections like myself.

     

    I've seen some people who have opted out of dropping their coins for this reason - it simply takes too long to retrieve them all!

     

    Thanks!

    This was another post but I agree I would like a feature like this. For those who do not have coin collections it is easy to say " Huh? Whats the point?" but for those who have collections it would be something useful.

  8. Being able to snag 50 new icons with just one tracking number seems ... wrong, somehow. (But if that's how you play the game, then more power to you.)

     

     

    That is really not how I play it. I can see your point, about logging the coins with out actually seeing them...that is why I said something about having to ask for permission from the owner. And; hey, it was an idea, not saying it was the best, I would still like to see the idea in of being able to place and/or taking your WHOLE collection with one number. The discover portion of it really doesn't matter to me, just thinking out loud.

     

    I agree I don't think the feature should go to actually discovering the coins but have the feature for the owner of a collection to easily retrieve the entire collection from the event.

  9. Now this is a feature I would to see. It is easy to drop your collection into an event cache. The difficulty is retrieving your collection, a big collection can take hours to retrieve. Maybe a drop down list off of your trackable page to select all your coins.

    I would also like to see some way of being able to at least pick up your entire "private inventory" from an event. It would make it much easier to retrieve the items, and would have to cut down on some of the network traffic generated from gc.com with all the retrieval emails and logs.

  10. Almost forgot about these coins. I Got mine today. I ordered 5 and slowly took out each coin.... anticipation.... anticipation..

     

    1st coin.... Ten - 114 of 325

    3rd coin.... Queen - 206 of 205 nice!!!

     

    4th coin.... King - 213 of 225 dang! all I need is a jack!!!

     

    5th coin.... Jack - 2 of 300 yes! yes! yes! Royal Flush!!!!!

     

    I am so happy! its like hitting the lottery Now I'll need to get the numbers in order. which may be difficult.
