+rogbarn Posted October 30, 2002 Share Posted October 30, 2002 Now that we have passed the 10,000 found mark, what's next? We can aim for 15,000 and/or 2% of the total database which would be 14,729. We should reach those numbers by late Jan or early Feb. I think we are slowing down a bit though, it will be interesting to see how slow it gets. If anyone has any ideas about a good milestone for us to aim for, let us know! Quote Link to comment
+headmj Posted October 30, 2002 Share Posted October 30, 2002 Hey Rog, I don't know about you but I'm not moving three feet of lake effect smow to see if the marker is there. Winter will probably slow the Northeast and midwest guys the most. Quote Link to comment
+raouljan Posted October 30, 2002 Share Posted October 30, 2002 That's that white, fluffy cold stuff, right? All marks below the 34th are still fair game! >Personally Responsible for the Recovery of .00244% of the Benchmark Database!<--watch this number! Quote Link to comment

rusty0101 Posted October 30, 2002 Share Posted October 30, 2002 I don't care how young, nimble, adventurous, or mindless you are, if the temp is below zero F, you probably are not interested in stamping around in a drift of snow to try to find a little brass medalion, when that nice warm cozy car that will take you to that nice warm house is sitting over there wondering what kind of a silly driver it has. Unless you are being paid for the privledge. -Rusty Quote Link to comment
rusty0101 Posted October 30, 2002 Share Posted October 30, 2002 10240 - nope already past. 12800 - no particular reason, just an idea. 14400 - a hundred gross of benchmarks. Obviously each of the thousands marks. Even powers of 2, 3, 4, 5, 8, and 16 Hmm, Jeremy, has there been any thought put forward for incentives for benchmark milestones? Sending winners a millstone would be a bit much, but perhaps web page markers of some sort for the geocacher who documents the benchmark for some milestone. After all forcing the winner to continue benchmark hunting while carying around a millstone would probably slow them down... -Rusty Quote Link to comment
