+SterlingConnie Posted October 31, 2005 Share Posted October 31, 2005 When I look at my stat bar it says I have found 136, but when I go to user stats>all cache finds it says 135. Not sure where the other one went or which one it is. Quote Link to comment
+briansnat Posted October 31, 2005 Share Posted October 31, 2005 (edited) I'm not 100 pct. sure, but I think locationless caches aren't included in one count. Edit: That's not true. I just checked and they are included in both of my counts. Edited October 31, 2005 by briansnat Quote Link to comment
MapheadMike Posted October 31, 2005 Share Posted October 31, 2005 I just browsed the list of 135 finds and didn't see the locationless icon in there. So that's the missing one. Quote Link to comment
+Yamahammer Posted October 31, 2005 Share Posted October 31, 2005 With thousands, even millions of bits of data streaming in from all over the world, I guess you can expect somethings to fall through the cracks. It'll prolly straighten itself out here before too long. If not, send in a request to Groundspeak. Quote Link to comment
+Moose Mob Posted October 31, 2005 Share Posted October 31, 2005 Although this does appear to be the locationless that caused the differerence, it can also be caused by multiple finds on the same cache. Quote Link to comment
+Jimbogeo Team Posted October 31, 2005 Share Posted October 31, 2005 Though am I right to assume you should not have more than one find per cache? I just recently hid a multicache and had a person log the first part as a find but did not find the final leg of the cache. They came back a couple of days later and found the second part and logged that as a find also. I sent them an email and they changed the first to a DNF. Is there any time that a cache could be logged as a find more than once? Quote Link to comment

There may even be examples where it was 'suggested' to the owner by a reviewer that it be done that way..... Quote Link to comment
Tahosa and Sons Posted November 1, 2005 Share Posted November 1, 2005 Is there any time that a cache could be logged as a find more than once? Yep - If the the Cache has been moved to a new area and you have to hunt again. Quote Link to comment
QuigleyJones Posted November 1, 2005 Share Posted November 1, 2005 Not sure where the other one went or which one it is. Its 136 and if your refresh your screen the numbers should be updated. This tends to happen just after you log a find. Quote Link to comment
