+Crid Posted May 30, 2008 Share Posted May 30, 2008 I'm getting ready to create my first cache (a puzzle cache), so I thought I would look at the online form for it. There seems to only be one place to enter coordinates on the first page. Do I get an opportunity to add different coordinates further on? Which coordinates should I enter on the first page? The final coords or the false ones? Link to comment

The final coords or the false ones? Put the false coordinates on the first page. Select the "waypoints" option to add a waypoint for the true final coordinates. Make sure to make that waypoint invisible to everyone but you and the reviewer. Link to comment
+Cache O'Plenty Posted May 30, 2008 Share Posted May 30, 2008 The false ones go first. After you select the cache type and create the page, you will submit the page. At that point you will be "admonished" to add the missing coordinates (a slight programming logic flaw here) as you do have report the final coordinates to the reviewer. Link to comment
+Trucker Lee Posted May 30, 2008 Share Posted May 30, 2008 On the page, in the spot for coords, enter some from in the middle of a lake or similar. You will later be able to let the reviewer know the real location of the find. Link to comment
+Crid Posted May 30, 2008 Author Share Posted May 30, 2008 Brilliant! Thanks for the replies. Link to comment
+Ed & Julie Posted June 1, 2008 Share Posted June 1, 2008 (edited) I'm getting ready to create my first cache (a puzzle cache), so I thought I would look at the online form for it. There seems to only be one place to enter coordinates on the first page. Do I get an opportunity to add different coordinates further on? Which coordinates should I enter on the first page? The final coords or the false ones? Just be careful where you put your "false" coordinates. One local cacher accidently placed his false mystery cache coordinates right on top of a police offficers house in a subdivision. Despite warnings that the coordinates were false, a cacher knocked on the officer's door looking for the cache. Pick a nice, emply place in the map for your coordinates.
