+StarBrand Posted May 4, 2006 Share Posted May 4, 2006 I recently replaced the original logbooks in 2 of my caches that are now 4 years old. The next finder of one them claimed a "First to sign new logbook". I laughed at the log. Then 3 days later another cacher claimed the same thing on the other cache. Weird coincidence. I wonder if anybody actually tracks such things.....hmmmmmmm. Something in the human psyche that "needs" to be first I guess. Quote Link to comment
+Morgan's Marauders Posted May 4, 2006 Share Posted May 4, 2006 It's just fun to see a clean white page that YOU get to sign first. Firsts are fun. I don't often get to be first to find - but that sure is fun. I think now I may explore at every cache, "What first is this for me?" - first Wally World parking lot cache (By the way - not bashing them - I have one of my own.) - first cache to find a snake at - first cache found in an abandoned building (loved that Mothman cache!) - first cache of the day! Being first can be fun! Quote Link to comment
+Tsegi Mike and Desert Viking Posted May 4, 2006 Share Posted May 4, 2006 We do that sometimes. It is a joke for us. We dont NEED to be first. We are making a private joke. Laughing at ourselves and the thrill of a "first to find". Quote Link to comment
AZcachemeister Posted May 4, 2006 Share Posted May 4, 2006 I recently created a cache here in Arizona (cloned from another I saw somewhere) that feeds this 'need'. I Was FTF! Quote Link to comment

+Team_Talisman Posted May 5, 2006 Share Posted May 5, 2006 Knowing parts of the panhandle it should have been...instead of First to sign new logbook First to snag windblown logbook heheheheheheh Quote Link to comment

+SUp3rFM & Cruella Posted May 10, 2006 Share Posted May 10, 2006 (edited) I recently created a cache here in Arizona (cloned from another I saw somewhere) that feeds this 'need'. I Was FTF! AZcachemeister, we were inspired by your idea and placed a cache in a garden very near of our house (like 100meters or so). Check it out: GCVYZR - FTF!! FTF!! FTF!!. We're loving the reactions. Thank you! Edited May 10, 2006 by SUp3rFM & Cruella Quote Link to comment
+4leafclover Posted May 10, 2006 Share Posted May 10, 2006 Another cute one, filling "the need". Quote Link to comment
+SUp3rFM & Cruella Posted May 10, 2006 Share Posted May 10, 2006 Awesome cache page! Thanks! We had a blast making this page. It was SOOOO funny. We still laugh at it, altough we've seen it like a 100 times. Quote Link to comment
+Tsegi Mike and Desert Viking Posted May 10, 2006 Share Posted May 10, 2006 A few more logistics to work out, but I plan on hosting (hope to be able to) an FTF Event Cache this summer. Quote Link to comment
+JakeBond Posted May 11, 2006 Share Posted May 11, 2006 i think its kind of fun to log first and to view other people's first. i have them listed on my profile. its kind of interesting knowing how people go interested in this sport/game...(my vote is sport, but to my muggle friends it is a game) check 'em out... rushing to be a FTF is kinda fun. my 1st FTF took me 3 trips and (embarassingly enough) about 4 hours of searching/travel! i live 1.5 miles away, but have no car access...
