+Jaz666 Posted July 16, 2007 Author Posted July 16, 2007 Only one published today with a placement date of the 16th, so I suspect caches placed yesterday are still getting published, which could make detection of the magic cache tricky. Quote
+4 Badgers Posted July 16, 2007 Posted July 16, 2007 I reckon it'll be tomorrow morning................ Quote
+Jaz666 Posted July 16, 2007 Author Posted July 16, 2007 Nine to go, but I'm not likely to be near a computer until late this evening - so I hope someone else is anal enough to work out which cache it is Quote
Lactodorum Posted July 16, 2007 Posted July 16, 2007 7 caches needed! Come on, make my day and place some more caches please. There's 9 to go and 2 waiting for review so surely there's time for place those caches you've been putting off Quote

+The Cache Hoppers Posted July 16, 2007 Posted July 16, 2007 Sooooo tempting to release a few we have set for the Shrops event, muhahahaa! But we are stronger than that. Could nip up the road and place one outside the lovely little chapel - tis crying out for a driveby. Quote
+JeremyR Posted July 16, 2007 Posted July 16, 2007 (edited) Just a thought, do those 18 event caches on the first page count towards the UKs 20,000 active caches, since they're future dated and all...? <ducks and covers> [edit]note to self: spell-check twice, post once... Edited July 16, 2007 by JeremyR Quote
+Bambography Posted July 16, 2007 Posted July 16, 2007 DING! I just got a published email! Keep at it folks! Quote

+Lotho Posted July 16, 2007 Posted July 16, 2007 Three to go, the suspense is killing me! Who will have the 20,000th cache in the UK? Oooooooooooh Quote
+Bambography Posted July 16, 2007 Posted July 16, 2007 Are you going to vet the big one to make sure its a worthy cache..?!? Quote
+Jaz666 Posted July 16, 2007 Author Posted July 16, 2007 Looks like I got home just in time! I'm using PQs and bookmarks to narrow down the magic cache. Quote
+Bambography Posted July 16, 2007 Posted July 16, 2007 Its going backwards, 5 now. Whos archiving, and does this mean that we're likely to end up with several 20,000th caches...?!? Quote
+Us 4 and Jess Posted July 16, 2007 Posted July 16, 2007 My caches don't count as I don't want them to go live until Saturday Go for it folks Mandy Quote

+Pengy&Tigger Posted July 16, 2007 Posted July 16, 2007 So now it's done, if one gets archived before another is reviewed do we have two 20000th caches? Quote
Lactodorum Posted July 16, 2007 Posted July 16, 2007 (edited) 20,000!!!!!!!!!!!!!! http://www.geocaching.com/seek/cache_detai...48-1627b073e83b Well done The Cache Hoppers 20,001 http://www.geocaching.com/seek/cache_detai...ea-d65ab6f774ee Close Mandy, but you were just pipped at the post.

+The Cache Hoppers Posted July 16, 2007 Posted July 16, 2007 Ecki told me he was off out for a beer and Decci was sorting his caches ... where's Decci gone?! How can they leave their cockpits at such a crucial time??? Quote

How can they leave their cockpits at such a crucial time??? Deci dily dallied so that the birthday boy got his birthday present, it's harder than publishing them Quote
Lactodorum Posted July 16, 2007 Posted July 16, 2007 Ah! But more importantly who will have the honour of clicking the special "Publish" button? I guess it would be appropriate if I pushed the button on the 16th!! Now, who guessed this a month ago?! Quote
+Us 4 and Jess Posted July 16, 2007 Posted July 16, 2007 (edited) 20,001 yay By coincidence the cache is called Dam Well done Liane Mandy Edited July 16, 2007 by Us 4 and Jess Quote
+The Cache Hoppers Posted July 16, 2007 Posted July 16, 2007 Well done to you too Mandy! Woohoooo! I'm going to change the cache box for something really special now! Ammo can sprayed with gold paint maybe? Need to hang out the deccies on the cache listing too, cos it looks well under-dressed at the moment! It just doesn't befit its status. Who is going to be FTF on it???? Quote
+Jaz666 Posted July 16, 2007 Author Posted July 16, 2007 Well we got there finally - despite some last minute archiving which took us from 19,997 back to 19,994. Here's some totally useless facts........ There is 1 cache for every 4.73 square miles of the United Kingdom. There is 1 cache for every 3010 people The UK's top cacher, M1EYO, has found 1 in every 5.42 active caches. Quote
+TMM-Sarah Posted July 16, 2007 Posted July 16, 2007 Guess mine (actually Iwan's) is still sat waiting...thanks to a silly faux pas! Sarah Quote
+Maple Leaf Posted July 16, 2007 Posted July 16, 2007 ............Need to hang out the deccies on the cache listing too, cos it looks well under-dressed at the moment! It just doesn't befit its status....... Surely you meant to raise its status not lower it ................Burghfield Common Booty - 2000th cache hide for UK You have missed a 'zero' off in renaming of your cache ........ Quote

Who is going to be FTF on it???? Well done guys, Might be worth changing the name of the cache slightly (or by a factor of 10) to be a little more accurate! Well done all! Quote
The Red Kite Posted July 16, 2007 Posted July 16, 2007 YAY! WOOHOO!! HOO HOO HOO Drum Roll Congratulations Cache hoppers. Well done Quote
