+The Fossillady 0 Posted July 8, 2008 Not fair I thought we had to use all the letter and there were two N's and no I's. I couldn't spell TRIANGLE with that. Quote Share this post Link to post
+Klemmer 0 Posted July 8, 2008 Thanks for the hard work, Geo. Didn't think we would do as well as we did. Tough contest. Time was also hard to come by over the last month or so, for various reasons. I feel like we could have done better, but - Oh well... Quote Share this post Link to post

+Astro_D 0 Posted July 8, 2008 Thanks for the effort in putting the contest together. Although we didn't do as well as we hoped - we were still able to recover quite a few marks (most not eligible for the contest) and personally scored some major finds (as in never been recovered since monumented and finding one that we requested to be destroyed). In the end, it's about getting out there and recovering the marks contest or not, so we don't feel too bad. Looking forward to whatever the adventure the next contest brings.

+2oldfarts (the rockhounders) 534 Posted July 8, 2008 I would like the answer to the first Bonus question. I did not figure it out. Oldest? Who? or Mark? or What? or all three? How did you determine the answer? Shirley~ Quote Share this post Link to post

+GEO*Trailblazer 1 0 Posted July 9, 2008 Since He was a (1972-2002) M-DOT Survey Technician I have to take his word on it. That is one of the prerequisites for a Surveyor. 1. To be honest. I have several recoveries with no pictures as well. I know I was there but it may have been at night,may not have had a camera and many other factors can come into play. I guess I could get technical I just asked for the oldest log. But then I would really feel like a smart a**!!!!!!! It was a tough question and harder to find. You may want to check into backgrounds heck who knows they may be in the contest. Quote Share this post Link to post

I know (by reputation) Z15 to be very damned good and have no problems or quibbles with his logs whether they have a pix or not. In fact, we used a couple of his logs to find benchmarks in the UP. I meant no offense to anyone. Quote Share this post Link to post

+Harry Dolphin 738 Posted July 9, 2008 There are threads concerning dates regressing to the default year. Especially true with browsers other than MSIE. The lackeys are working on it. Quote Share this post Link to post

Wat u mean Dolphin??? I remember a way back machine mentioned once and even used it once but that was way back once. Aren't the old forums archived? The original one's I mean from way back. I wrote some cool stuff once I think. Quote Share this post Link to post
