Could you clearify a point for us....

 

Does every mention of the reviewers name cast them a ballot OR does each cacher mentioned get ONE ballot. :huh:

 

Yeah, I'm kinda curious on this one too. Does it help if everyone "votes" for their favorite, or is it like I read in the first post just going to be a name out of hat based on if their name was mentioned? Just in case the votes count, I'm so putting in Surfer Joe again.

Each Reviewer mention gets one ballot. Not a ballot for each time they are mentioned. This is the fairst way I know to conduct the contest.

Thanks for the clarification. That's the way I thought you were doing it too, but was getting confused by all of the extra votes from people. :huh:

 

Great looking staves, here's hoping my local reviewer wins so I can check it out more in detail at an event sometime!

Sorry for the delay in replying, but I was in Pittsburgh for the past 3 days ona consulting job and just returned home recently. I nominate Quiggle, who selflessly serves Maryland geocachers with grace and good humor and great tolerance.

And anyone who has read Vinny's cache pages knows I deserve that hiking staff, too!! :huh:

All the reviewers on the team are way cool, but

 

from the inside looking out Prime Reviewer would be my choice he does so much for the sport that most people do not know about, the quite silent type

 

and yes I know that you only need to post one time for the drawing, but did it anyway

We 2nd Erik88l-r (he covers more real estate than the rest of the reviewers combined).

Add my vote to Erik88l-r.

Us, too! Erik88l-r and Crow T Robot both do a great job of covering Alaska. Plus, the four-hour time difference means we can wake up to newly approved caches or have them go live in time to get us out of the office on time in the afternoon.

 

He approved my first cache in a matter of hours!! Cache on!

Hours??? Heck, minutes!!!

I give my vote to "NYCacher" even if he has kicked back a couple of my latest caches... I see his point and has given a fare judgment on them... What's good for one is good for all... Gets my vote!

Let me add the name of the german speaking reviewers who do a great job to adjust the guidelines to german needs. They even set up a german website to make the cache placement easier for non-english speaking cachers (Die Reviewer).

 

2, °, ApproV, Laogai, swissgeocache,

 

Great Job! Thank you!

I wasn't going to do this until ion the morning, but my wife reminded me that I have a doctors appointment in the morning that may take awhile. Also it looks like all the nominees are in.

 

I wish I could give a staff to every Reviewer out there. Everyone of you deserve to win. You have all seen the public posts here, but you haven't seen the emails that I've received trying to sway me into giving the staff to their well deserving Reviewer. Those emails numbered into the dozens. I hope this thread has relayed from all of us our appreciation for what you do, and how well you are all thought of.

 

I let my wife do the drawing so there would be no bias on my part.

Congratulations to erik88l-r! He is a Reviewer from GA, and is one of the very first people to take on this responsibility. I've had the pleasure of meeting him a couple of years ago. As you can tell from the posts made here he is very well thought of and covers a lot of territory. When my wife handed me the slip of paper with his name on it I knew the staff went to a very deserving person.

 

Thanks everyone for making this one of the nicest threads in recent history. :blink:

This is really very cool. :blink:

 

I was very surprised and pleased to win, but more pleased to see all the positive comments expressed for all the reviewers. I've met many of the reviewers and they're all great folks who deserve and appreciate the recognition. On behalf of all the reviewers I thank El Diablo for doing this, and thank all who posted for doing so. I've enjoyed reading all the enthusiastic postings, and only wish all reviewers could share the hiking staff.

(but I'll keep it, thank you very much)

 

THANKS!

I reached a licensing agreement with Groundspeak this week to use Signal on a hiking staff. So I made 2 of them and thought I would give one away to a local Reviewer in appreciation for all they do.

 

So if you want to show how much you support them all you have to do is mention their name here, and at the end of the week (Friday) I'll do a random drawing and send them this with his or her name on it.

i WOULD HAVE TO SAY THAT rOADrUNNER IN nEVADA IS A TIRELESS SUPPORTER AND NOT ONLY DOES HE REVIEW THEM BUT ATTENDS THE EVENTS, CACHE OUTINGS, CITO EVENTS AND SUPPORTS CACHERS WITH THEIR GOALS AND IS AN ALL AROUND CAACHING MENTOR.

 

i VOTE THAT HE GETS THE NEW HIKING STAFF!!! :blink:

I would like to cast our vote for NYCacher. One reason (and this is just one, there are more) being that our caches are receiving immediate attention. Last night I submitted a new cache at 7:17PM, it was listed at 7:36PM, just 19 minutes later. Way to go NYCacher! Thanks for your work to help feed our obsession.

Psssst-he's already made the drawing and the winning reviewer's staff. Look at the pics up there^^^.

 

I cannot think of a more deserving reviewer. He reviewed my first cache four years ago, was one of the first volunteers on this site, and is still around doing it after all that.

I just want to thank everyone for your overwhelming support for all the Reviewers. Geocaching is a wonderful sport for so many reasons, and one of the biggest reasons is all the people we have the opportunity to meet and get to know.

 

Congratulations, Erik. :blink:
