[2oldfarts (the rockhounders)]

All post through & including post #66 have been checked and any PMs sent that were needed. If you see any errors please let us know. If you have any questions about the scores, this will be the best place to ask them.

 

We will try to post the first shot every week. The shot with the daily scores will be erratic and unpredictable as to when it will be posted.

 

 

The scores as of 3/12 @ 10AM

 

 

Total scores per day. Grid shows the day followed by the total score for the day as in 3/12-82 (that would be 82 total points posted on March 12,2007).

Could you please post a clarification of the rules regarding what constitutes a DNF? Does DNF mean the last post for that benchmark was a DNF? Or, does DNF mean that the last entry in the official NGS datasheet is a DNF? Or, something else?

 

Thanks,

Jeff

DNF (Did Not Find) means that the last log (using the date of the log) whether by NGS, some other agency or a Geocacher must be a DNF. You must then Find that benchmark.

All contestants please note:

 

We have been in contact with a friend about getting a benchmark for a drawing. At this time there are no benchmarks available, but we will still have a drawing. If we cannot get a benchmark disk then the prize will be a 1 GB SD card.

 

To qualify for the drawing, you will need to have found (and logged) at least 1 benchmark that qualifies for the contest. The names of those that qualify will go into a hat and a name pulled out to see who gets the prize.

 

Have fun benching,

I can guarantee that there WILL be a benchmark disk (complete with stem, vintage 1948), available as a prize for the contest.

Also, let us know if there are any errors that you can see.

 

Notice how the special find points become important to the standings. They are also quite a surprise to us. Look at all of the DNFs that are really there.
