I am angry

[fraggle69]

Does anybody want to be angry with me?

[+Dorsetgal & GeoDog]

Nope, not really ... why not spread a little love and perform a random act of kindness instead?

 

That will truly mess with peoples heads as they try to figure out what you are up to!

[fraggle69]

ok does anybody want to be lovely with me, even though i might be in a slightly angry mood about it?

[+fat bloke]

What about ?

[fraggle69]

I did a search on an area and the 1st cache is not available. I then ran a PQ and when I opened the PQ in GSAK the cache is available and showing on my list of possible caches for tomorrow. I ran a GSAK status check which updated the waypoints status.

Is the delay between PQ and postcode/area search a long one or a short one?

 

Aiiii

I know - it makes you wonder if life's really worth going on with, doesn't it?

I *swear* I told you about this exact problem, just yesterday, after we did "Murder most horrid".

 

If a cache is archived, then the PQ doesn't mention it at all. If it's in your GSAK database, then it will still be in your GSAK database after you feed it the PQ. GSAK never will get told that it's archived, unless you tell it.

You're quite right, what's the bloody point, I mean I've heard of dudes not updating their Data properly but this takes the wee right out of my pants.

 

Maybe an answer from someone more experienced or a mod would do the trick.

 

In all honesty though, this is not wthat is making me angry with a hint of love in there somewhere if you're lucky

 

Aiiiiiiiiiiiii

Hey up I didn't say a word about archived cache here, I am talking about UNAVAILABLE

[fraggle69]

i THNK YOU ARE MAKING ME SAD

[+Simply Paul]

My advice re anger: Don't get mad, get even.

[+PopUpPirate]

Methinks someones put a knife in the fork drawer by mistake...

[fraggle69]

It's got nowt to do with caching really, what I mentioned above is odd though and makes me think and the point is?

[fraggle69]

bloody hell, looks like it was made unavailable on the 5th July MF pitch and slowly putt the unavailable status from the online PQ or maybe it's a GSAK setting I think NOT Muhahahahaha

[+Mr'D]

Nahhh... lose it, scare the pants of everyone, and you will get what you want...

 

oops sorry, wrong thread/forum/BB

 

[nobby.nobbs]

bottle the anger, develop it, slowly let it brew then when it is just about to make your head explode release it aimed at a small specific target

 

that or just let it go and have a pint, it's friday

It happens!

 

Whilst I can understand your frustration, maybe even anger for a brief moment whilst on site, I'm surprised it hadn't subsided by the time you got back to you pc.

 

A similar thing happened to me last w/e when I went out caching using my pda with a GSAK download. It turned out that the cache I couldn't find had been pulled in April! Whilst there I was a little annoyed at not finding it especially as the location was litter riddled - the dog even cut his foot on broken glass. On the walk back to the car however I realised that it had got me out hunting on a peasant day (exactly what caching's about for me) so all was well with the world really.

 

It's only a game and sometimes we loose!

[+cakemaker]

Isn't every day a peasant day?! Especially for us geo types?!

[+milvus-milvus]

Just realised that's my cache you're talking about!

It's been true and welly muggled.

Would it help you if I archived it? I think that's the way it's heading, unfortunately...

 

Cheer up, it's Friday!

Baz.

Breath, Calm Down a bit, and take Dan./Rocky Balboa's advice - "It's just a hunt for a lunchbox. Don't take it so seriously!"

[+Simply Paul]

I've always liked the phrase 'Go Postal'

[+walkergeoff and wife]

There is a way of generating a filter in GSAK that will reveal archived caches. It involves setting the dates on your filter.

 

 

If you run this filter after every download you will get archived caches revealed. This is predicated on weekly downloads.

I just went away and looked up 'predicates'

 

Very interesting / useful info this. What happens if you DON'T do a weekly download, do you just have to remember when you last downloaded a PQ into the database you are updating and set the days accordingly?

[+Alibags]

ps. even though he is fairly local, the threat of Fraggle69 going postal is diminished by the fact that I think it's rather hard to have a punch up when you are knee deep in water.

Great - geocaching takes you to words you have never visited before!

I suppose so. I have never experimented with it. I guess if you update every day, then you could set the days to 1.

 

When you run this filter, the ones that are archived always display in the view panel as 'An error has occurred'. Any that may have been caught - for example, if you get your PQs excluding your finds, these will be caught by this filter, as they, too, will not be updated.

I can't really say what I am about to go postal about.

This isn't the issue I raised dude. The issue is that The PQ I executed last night was a new PQ in my system but it failed to realise the cache in question was unavailable a simple search of the cache in the local area showed it was unavailable, which is why I know the PQ that GC sent me was WRONG by atleast 3weeks. I guess this just happens right, it's a geocaching.com issue?

It's got nowt to do with my GSAK DB being out of date blah blah blah.

Personally, I think it's the friction of all the rain drops in the atmosphere producing lots of negatively charged ions that is making Fraggle all fragile! My solution - go out and do a loooong multi in the rain to work off your excess pent up energies.
