+Rebel Alliance Posted July 18, 2007 Share Posted July 18, 2007 Well done to Huge on finding 151 (we think) caches in 23 hours and 29 minutes. Also congratulations to Freakboy who must have found pretty close to the record too on a great outing. Well done lads. If you want to relive the sleep deprivation, just give me a call and you can babysit Isobel for me! Three cheers for Hugo and Simon! Chris and Mick Kisses and cuddles from Eva and Isobel (not from us, we hear that you are a bit smelly at the moment ) Quote Link to comment

+Rebel Alliance Posted July 18, 2007 Author Share Posted July 18, 2007 Out of curiosity, how fast did they get to 100? I'm not sure, I don't think it was the fastest but, I or someone, will verify when they wake up. Quote Link to comment

+Rebel Alliance Posted July 19, 2007 Author Share Posted July 19, 2007 (edited) What a pair of slackers. You should try harder !!!! Surely you could have managed another 20? Mick Edited July 19, 2007 by Rebel Alliance Quote Link to comment
+mongoose39uk Posted July 19, 2007 Share Posted July 19, 2007 Having read some of the logs on the caches I have decided to list this record as a separate record. Sorry for any frustration this may cause. Quote Link to comment

Sorry for any frustration this may cause. Could you be a bit more specific? What exactly is the problem? I've looked at a lot of the logs (151 logs is too many to read all of!) and I can't see anything that indicates any of the guidelines were broken. AH. Quote Link to comment

+mongoose39uk Posted July 21, 2007 Share Posted July 21, 2007 It would appear from reading the logs this record seems to have been done with on the ground assistance. Rebel Alliance do state in at least one log that it was found by them, while assisting Huge This was not the case with the previous attempts. While appreciating this is an achievement in itself it is not in the same spirit as the previous records. I have therefore listed it separately. Quote Link to comment
+Rebel Alliance Posted July 22, 2007 Author Share Posted July 22, 2007 We were all there for the 151 caches. Just happened that some of us found some as did others on the team. SO on other record attempts each member of the group found each cache individually? I know they carry out this type of thing in Japan (ask Huge). But whenever we have been out in a group, the group works as a team. Whilst on the subject does this set of self-appointed guidelines also prohibit the use of PAF? I know of one record setting trip where this was used comprehensively. As I was with the cacher who kept getting asked where caches where? I love this hobby it is such a fun and friendly environment.

+Stuey Posted July 22, 2007 Share Posted July 22, 2007 Taking it to the extreme, you could have two cachers go out on a recce a few days beforehand, find them all, then go round again with a third cacher, making them a "team". They're not going to miss any caches, or take any time finding any caches. A line has to be drawn somewhere, and I tend to agree with Mongoose. P-A-F is another discussion altogether.

Sorry to play devils advocate, but a quick filter in gsak shows that out of the 151 caches you accompanied Huge to, you had previously found 56 of them at an earlier date. I don't think that is in keeping with the spirit of the other record attempts over the past few years. Quote Link to comment
