+GlobalRat Posted July 11, 2006 Posted July 11, 2006 Whats the countdown timer about??? Hopefully not for the return of a certain item in a certain cache which should have accompanied your Found log... Perhaps the devious lads will keep us in suspense until it hits 0.
+Team_Farmers Posted July 11, 2006 Posted July 11, 2006 what are we talking about here? what countdown?
+Brick Posted July 12, 2006 Posted July 12, 2006 what are we talking about here? what countdown? www.geocaching.za.net The countdown is there for a reason... but when I asked I only got an evil laugh, straight from and Austin Powers movie. So throw us a frikkin bone here !!
+ZAlandyman & Susieq Posted July 12, 2006 Author Posted July 12, 2006 I WANT TO KNOW I WANT TO KNOW I WANT TO KNOW NOW!!!! Please :-) what the countdown is for.... "the end of geocaching.za.net?" "the end of the world?" "the start of the age of aquerius (though I think some one has done that)?" "the second....." WHAT IS IT!!!! Lots of love ZAlandyman I tried asking nicely, but that didn't work, so I threw a tantrum, lets see if that gets any results
+Tricky Vicky & Mickey Posted July 13, 2006 Posted July 13, 2006 Hmmm......., just wondering if August 15 is when one or more of those rather nice QFC fellow's leave on a trip outside our borders?! Perhaps they're off to cache elsewhere? Don't most of the flights to UK and Europe etc, leave at about 8pm? If so, we're green with envy and highly jealous!
+Team_Farmers Posted July 13, 2006 Posted July 13, 2006 I bet it's got something to do with a revamp/ new website... or something like that.... What if QFC has been secretly doing some caches, and is waiting to log them all?
+Jors Posted July 13, 2006 Posted July 13, 2006 I can see them (QFC) reading these posts and laughing, enjoying themselves - at óúr cost.... Perhaps, another strategy would be to ignore it, see nothing, say nothing, and wonder not. Maybe then, if they don't see any interest, the event they're counting down to will just be added to the site. Hmmmm.... perhaps not....
+warthog Posted July 13, 2006 Posted July 13, 2006 When was the original Geocaching.za.net website officially launched?
+warthog Posted July 13, 2006 Posted July 13, 2006 Now Mr GR, what is this blank stare (comment I mean)???
+batsgonemad and his squirrel Posted July 13, 2006 Posted July 13, 2006 Suckers thats what you all are. It's a marketing ploy to get the numbers up on their site. It was not visited enough so they thought they would get you all to go there one way or the other.
+Team_Farmers Posted July 15, 2006 Posted July 15, 2006 (edited) Not normally a gambling man - but I'm gonna take a wild bet on this one: Speedwobble is going to win the Travel Bug race! Just piecing the puzzle together: QFC owns the Travel Bug, which is currently 2nd in the race; and GR, who has been pretty quite hmmm... what say you fellow geocachers?

cache-fan Posted July 15, 2006 Posted July 15, 2006 Windows Vista will be released and we can expect the QFC server to crash?
+vespax Posted July 15, 2006 Posted July 15, 2006 Windows Vista will be released and we can expect the QFC server to crash? M$ wishes they could get that heap of 'bleep' out the door by then! A new QFC cache trip to the northern cape to rake the numbers up. my guess at least.
+Larks Posted July 17, 2006 Posted July 17, 2006 What is the countdown for? For this exact reason!!! For the hype! We're all playing right into thier hands! As for the reason behind the reason... I heard that they've been on a massive caching trip and found OVER 500 caches!!!!!! And they're only going to log them when the timer expires, and shoot in to first spot!
+QFC Posted July 17, 2006 Posted July 17, 2006 MU HU HA HA HA We're still not tellllling...... (think whiny kid's voice) Should ZAlandyman & Susieq commit ritual suicide as a result of insanity we can not be blamed. It is not our fault. You will see in 28 Days 23 Hours and other pretty numbers time.... QFC P.S. Daily hints on home page www.geocaching.za.net WE ARE NOT ADVERTISING FOR OUR SITE!!!!!!!
+ZAlandyman & Susieq Posted July 20, 2006 Author Posted July 20, 2006 wait, wait.... I know what it is!!! It's a countdown timer for a thermo nuclear bomb (Star Wars) and at the very last moment one of those nifty QFC chaps are going to defuse it and save the day... all while wearing his underpants over his jean pant!!!
+QFC Posted July 21, 2006 Posted July 21, 2006 all while wearing his underpants over his jean pant!!! WHAT! We may be programmers but, unlike superman, we do have a slight fashion sense. As for the comment on Jean Pant, I can assure you we are true Soutie's and that our bad grammar and spelling is the result of 7-9 years in Bloemfontein. No more clues for you!
+vespax Posted July 21, 2006 Posted July 21, 2006 Oh, blacklisted over Jean Pant and underpants. This is getting intense.

+Whostops Posted July 22, 2006 Posted July 22, 2006 What can I say, that hasn't been said before ??? Like everyone else I to have wondered about the countdown, but have been to shy to ask All I can say is WELL DONE to QFC !!! You guys have done us proud. I have yet to find as good a ranking anywhere. As to the suspense......we will wait & see. You deserve some fun.

+Brick Posted August 1, 2006 Posted August 1, 2006 Who has seen the new mascot?? About to go bungy-jumping, me thinks! Bloukrantz or Gouritz? Gouritz for sure ... cause there is a cache there !!
+Brick Posted August 1, 2006 Posted August 1, 2006 There's 2 caches at Bloukrantz!! oooooooo, so I have to jump off there too....
+Team_Farmers Posted August 2, 2006 Posted August 2, 2006 Is that a Table Mountain hat? mmm? I agree... it does look like one, heh?
+batsgonemad and his squirrel Posted August 5, 2006 Posted August 5, 2006 Well it seems it has something to do with the rankings, we recently had part 2 with us and he would part with no info. Would like to know how they plan to improve and already good site
+ZAlandyman & Susieq Posted August 7, 2006 Author Posted August 7, 2006 Ahhh, the end!! The end of what you may ask? The end of this discussion!! And apparantly an end to other things. But I'll let you read all about that here.....HERE
