  1. I'm not sure how someone can feel good claiming a find on a cache they never actually found. Like you implied, it's apples and oranges, comparing a single honest person's achievement with a "team's" claimed achievement. But here again, it's just another silly way that people have come up with to get them numbers. To the OP, i know a few people personally that claimed they met the 365 day challenge. Except for the one that admitted they "fudged" and did not actually go out everyday, they all complained about halfway through, how tiring and monotonous the challenge had become. It was almost like they were on their death beds at times and i never heard so much moaning. But of course that went away the day they completed their challenge. All that previous misery was forgotten about at that point. Good luck with your mission!
  2. Others have already mentioned the most useful strategies. The main one is not to waste opportunities. Leave the caches near home for when you really need them later. If you are traveling away from home, then find a cache wherever you're traveling. And if it's somewhere you'll visit again, then find only one, to save the rest for when you need them later. If your commute is flexible, then you can find a cache anywhere between home and work. If you start a new job, then you've got a whole new territory to work with (one cache at a time, of course). The only time I found more than one cache a day during my streak was when I was invited to join a group geocaching trip in an open space that was nowhere near any of my usual locations. I figured that I wouldn't need any of those caches later, so I went ahead and found more than I had ever found in a single day before then. 366 consecutive days with finds from 2013-08-01 to 2014-08-01 I started with Groundspeak's 31 Days of August Souvenir promotion that summer. Then I just kept going to see how long I could keep it up. At some point, I decided to end it after a year. Then I decided to end it with a local Puzzling Month challenge cache. Then I decided to end it after 366 days, because I discovered a 366-Day Streak challenge cache. I found puzzle caches to qualify for the Puzzling Month challenge on the first 30 days of July, then found the cache itself on the 31st of July. Then I found one more cache to make it 366 Days (which should have been the local 365-Day Streak challenge cache, but I forgot about it at the time). Then I very deliberately allowed a day to pass without finding any caches.
  3. Impressive self-control! And side note, that's also why many streak types aren't allowed as challenge caches any more - it can prompt people not to find caches. Glad that >365 day streak challenges aren't allowed any more I'm happy with my 366, that was hard enough.
  4. Genauso ist es, wenn das Hobby im Stress ausartet, ist es keine Hobby mehr. Bei uns haben ein paar Leute in 24 Stunden alle Bundesländer und drei angrenzende Länder besucht, ist schon lustig aber eben auch stressig. Diese 365 Tage Challenges ist wohl eher was für Rentner, Arbeitslose oder so. Ich habe diesbezüglich aber schon oft Caches gefunden, in dem ein Datum vom nächsten Tag, nachster WWoche usw. drin stand. Wenn man dann sowas macht besch... man sich selbst und ist dann auch wirklich nicht mehr eine Challenge - aber jedem wie es ihm gefällt
  5. Hi, Grundlegend stimmen wir frostengel zu, ABER.... Es gibt Challenges, die setzen z.B. voraus, dass man 365 Tage am Stück jeden Tag mindestens einen Cache findet oder eine Ratio von genau 5 Caches pro Tag für ein gesamtes Jahr erfüllt. In Cache armen Gegenden wird das zur Qual, wenn man bereits den Großteil der Tradis usw. eingesammelt hat, da man dann mitunter längere Strecken fahren muss, um einen Tagescache zu erledigen oder die Ratio oben zu halten. Im Umkehrschluss sind aber Challenges wie 360° von Deutschland eher eine Langzeitaufgabe, bei der man sich auf jeden Fall Zeit lassen sollte, da es sonst wirklich nervig wird. Letztlich ist es persönlicher Geschmack, was man machen und erfüllen will, bzw. ob man sich überhaupt für Challenges interessiert. Das ist somit jedem selbst überlassen. Die Beispiele sollen nur zum Nachdenken anregen, da man die ersten beiden z.B. irgendwann einfach kaum mehr erfüllen kann ohne sich wirklich komplett zu verbiegen. Am Anfang sind sie allerdings eher einfacher zu erreichen. Gruß die_Schnoeldner
  6. We had a cacher in our area who succeeded in finding at least one cache everyday for 365 consecutive days one year. He followed that by finding no caches (0) for the following year (and then some). Lesson to this story is : Be careful about your goal as it could make you come to despise what you used to think was an enjoyable activity.
  7. Boas! Em 2014 irei tentar que o Geocaching no Brasil aumente, tanto em numero de participantes como em numero de caches colocados. Para o numero de geocachers aumentar é necessário que os caches estejam colocados e em boas condições para que as pessoas que sejam picadas pelo bichinho não desistam ao não encontrar o cache ou verificar que quem o colocou não está efectuando manutenção do mesmo. A relação cache/owner deve ser longa e mesmo que não existam visitas de outros jogadores este deve garantir que o cache se encontra em condições, como indicado pelos Guidelines: Você é responsável por visitas ocasionais à sua geocache para assegurar que está tudo em ordem para funcionar, especialmente quando alguém reporta um problema com a geocache (desaparecimento, estrago, humidade/infiltrações, etc.), ou faz um registo "Precisa de Manutenção". Desactive temporariamente a sua geocache para que os outros saibam que não devem procurar a geocache até que tenha resolvido o problema. A outra parte é a mais fácil... colocar caches! Em 2014 conto colocar 365 caches, 1 por dia... caso não consiga irei colocar vários no mesmo dia... gostava de conseguir que no final de 2014 existissem mais 365 caches colocados por mim. Sim, é uma responsabilidade grande cuidar de tantos caches mas tentarei fazer o melhor que posso para garantir que estejam activos e em bom estado pelo que os colocarei todos num raio de 25km de casa, em SP.

  8. Congratulations to me on my 31st day in a row geo-caching

    Ten Hide Geo Achievement Announcement 

    On my 31st day of Geo Caching In a row, it looks like a long time before I see my 365 day challenge coin. So, to help pass the time I wanted to direct my attention to a second achievement goal. I will now be going for the Hide Geo Achievement award series. I currently have four hides under my belt and hoping my fifth will post December 10, 2017 so 1/2 way to my 10 Hide achievement coin. Tonight I got creative and prepared the next nine geo cache hide containers. From the nano chewed bubblegum (need a tweezers for that one)  to the re-positioned lead holder container and artificial candle flame. most everything has strips of magnets on them. Except for the film canister and flame. Even the Altoids box bottom is a magnetic strip. I'm trying to change it up a bit from the common day lamp post skirt.

  9. Thank you for all the answers. Let me give an example. I made three trips and was unsuccessful on finding a cache and put a new container there, BUT DID NOT LOG the FIND. I emailed the owner when I got home and he asked me to NOT leave a new cache so I went out the next day and removed the cache I placed. Two more trips back and I eventually found the cache, first find in over 3 years of the cache and it has NOT been found since (about 6 months ago). As for the FIND DATE, I am not talking about the actual day you found the cache it should be logged. Many of us don't get to logging for days, weeks, months and even years later. I started in 2002 and could go on a cache and log that I found it December 1, 2002. As for being on vacation, just wait till you get home and then log the cache on the date you found it. People are worried that a thief is reading logs on caches, and while possible, I think it is rare. And even if a thief did read your found log, how does he know where you live by your Geocaching Profile? People worried that their boss is reading found logs on every cache in the county, highly unlikely (unless they are a cacher too). The thing that I feel is dishonorable is for a cacher to do a Power Trail on January 1, find 365 caches, and then log one find for every day of the year without every going out again that year. I mean, what is the point? Filling in a day here or there due to an extreme circumstance such as a death, a funeral, surgery, etc... can be understood. My first attempt at a streak was interrupted by Dental Surgery where I had 4 implants, so my streak ended as I was in extreme pain for over a week. I could have cheated, but I would only be cheating myself. And that is my point, WHY cheat yourself? By the way, great responses from everyone, thank you!
  10. I had proposed an attendee management feature back in the day but I can't link to it because I can't find it. Is it just non-PMO forum users whose searches are restricted to no more than 365 days? Someone want to do me a solid and find the [FEATURE] thread I started on this? Thanks!
  11. Not anymore. There are statistic hounds that do this to up their logwordcounts, which some third party sites record on a person's profile. Wordy is no longer an indication of quality. This recent log on a roadside micro (66 finds, one FP in 2014). The logger (over 10000 finds) posted this on the 21 caches he found that day : Found it 07/21/2017 Day 335 of my current caching streak as I work towards a goal of 365 days straight. Day 44 of my caching road trip from Salt Lake City, UT to Ohio, Rhode Island, North Carolina, Texas and then back to Utah on the 21st day of July with partly cloudy skies and temperatures in the mid 90's. All is well with the cache container and log. Thanks for the cache. With all the time we spent caching, have you ever stopped to think how much news you've missed out on since this crazy game of geocaching was created back in early 2000? I hope this helps....This Day in History - July 21, 2000, 2001 & 2002: 2000 - Group of Eight leaders met for an economic summit on the Japanese island of Okinawa, where President Clinton also sought to soothe long-simmering tensions over the huge American military presence. 2000 - Special Counsel John C.

Premium Member 526 Didn't find it 27/05/2017 Well, we found what looks like the way it was attached on the ground. Now, finding this could have caused us to give up too early, but still doesn't look good… DNF =( The two DNFs included a picture of the attaching devise.
  13. Hello, I am new to the forum though I have been geocaching with my better half for nearly a year, and actually became a volunteer translator a few months ago. My name is Laurence and I live in Rouen, Normandy (France). I am an English teacher with a fondness for riddles, history, travel and hikes with a goal, so geocaching kinda hits all the right buttons ! My current goal is to reach 365 finds before the anniversary of my first find. It may seem easy but I do try to have à social life, and of course my job keeps me occupied at home too. Happy to meet you all !
  14. You've pretty much captured the essence of why we Waymark now, too. Geocaching just lost its lustre after so many tupperware and pill bottle chases. Too, Waymarking can keep us - me at least - busy 24/7/365.25. Sit here, watch a few ball games, listen to some music and spew out a few Waymarks; that's my day... ... Keith
  15. I'm curious...and perhaps a mod or someone with more imagination than I can answer...what happens on Aug. 24, 2018 when a large number of the rewards go unclaimed? I can think of a dozen or so 'cachers local to me who are imminently qualified (according to the speculations for criteria used in the algorithm, which are admittedly only speculations), but those 'cachers have quit the game because, hey: life happens. I would expect that for at least one of them an unread message announcing the award of a virtual placement has been granted. I'm assuming this will happen with some frequency, as the closest new virt. to me is several hundred miles away. I am planning, though, to make a special trip for at least one new virt. If we get to the end of the 365 day limit and have only half of those new virtuals in place, do you suppose Groundspeak will "extend" the invitation?

  17. They have one on geocaching.com shop its for 365 days coin http://shop.geocaching.com/default/trackable-items/geocoins/365-day-geoachievement-award-set.html
  18. I found one for 365 days: http://www.coinsandpins.com/geo-achievement-365-days-of-caching#.UfXF6m3-5D4 and one for 366 days: http://www.thecachestation.com/geo-achievement-366-days-of-caching/

  20. My question is, whose responsibility is it when a cache placement breaks a local by-law? This is a general question but it was triggered by a specific situation. In this case the by-law in question makes it illegal to climb a tree in city parks and there is a fine of $365 for climbing a tree without a permit. See story that was published May 9, 2013 at the following http://www.thestar.com/news/crime/2013/05/09/man_claims_assault_by_officer_who_fined_him_365_for_climbing_tree_without_permit.html Man claims assault by officer who fined him $365 for climbing tree without permit This is not about whether the officer was overly aggressive though it seems like he was but about breaking the bylaw by placing a cache in a place where one has to break a by-law to place it and also to retrieve it. What brought this to my attention and concern was that there are at least 3 caches in fairly close to home, the last one was just published a few days ago, that require the climbing of a tree in a city park to retrieve the cache. I am not totally against climbing trees to retrieve a cache, I just did one yesterday, although one may argue that if the tree is climbed by many cachers then there is a good chance that the tree will be badly damaged. Is the onus on our community, cachers and reviewers, to police a situation like this or just to let it go by and either get the cache or ignore it? If we know of a cache that contravenes a local by-law should we report it to the reviewer and should a reviewers be told not to publish caches that knowingly contravene local by-laws?

  22. ShowStop's stats are well within reason, in my opinion...here are my current stats to show why I believe them: Overall Total Finds: 2805 finds in 344 caching days over 608 total days (56.5 %) Overall Averages: 8.15 finds per caching day, 4.61/day, 32.29/week, 140.43/month Last 365 Days: 1568 finds in 159 caching days over 365 total days (43.5 %) Last 365 Days Averages: 9.86 finds per caching day, 4.30/day, 30.07/week, 130.77/month There are people who eat, sleep and breath geocaching. Their numbers will be higher than yours. Showstop also caches in Southern California, home to tens of thousands of park and grab caches. He plots his routes so that he never makes left-hand turns, and rarely visits areas with only a few caches. When you view maps of So Cal cache densities, you may change your mind about his ability to find that many caches.
