2 quick questions

[+_Superman_]

Ok, this may sound funny. But I have two quick questions...

 

1. When I started, I didn't expect to get into this as much as I had....I made my name as the username which I am now regretting.....Is there ANY way to change your username????

 

2. I've been looking at people's profiles and it has a stat that shows how many FTF's someone has....How does the website know someone had a FTF if they arent the first to log?

[+KevinWinkler]

Read up on the other topic abot names to see what I have to say ... Can I ask why you regret it? Is there some sort of geocache stalker hunting you down?

 

Hope to see you on the trail someday Brandon.

The website does not track FTFs. Those stats you see are from 3rd party applications and in most of them FTFs are entered manually

 

There is a section of the Knowledge Books that deals with name changes. You can find it here. See my sig line for a link to the Knowledge Books

Changing username -- try this link: http://support.Groundspeak.com/index.php?p...age&id=115;

 

I see you use CachStats -- open it, select the [caches] tab at the top. Notice within the cache description area, there is an FTF box to check if you are the FTF. Checking that box will tally your count, but you must check it for each individual FTF.

 

Happy caching.

I was just wondering what a Tidd was, and why anybody would decide to put a brand on one.

If you have to ask...I woke up after a party with a brand on my tidd once, my wife was not amused.

 

Brandon, just a bit of our twisted humor, no offence intended.

7.12. Username Change

 

We can change a username under some circumstances. Approvals of username changes are at the discretion of Groundspeak and need to comply with the Terms of Use: http://www.geocaching.com/about/termsofuse.aspx

 

Before making the request, check that the username is available by typing this URL into your browser's address bar and adding the name you would like to use at the end:

http://www.geocaching.com/profile/?u=

 

Example: This will bring up the account with the username "Signal the Frog."

 

http://www.geocaching.com/profile/?u=Signal the Frog

 

The username is available if your search comes up empty and you see the message "profile not found." Note: Do not create an account using the intended username. We will do that.

 

If the username already exists and has ever been validated, or the username has been used in any way, then the username is not available.

that might fall due to this being a family/kid friendly site and be deemed offensive.

Oh great master! I'm not worthy!!

[+chuckwagon101]

Ya mean ya ain't sposed to use your real name????

 

DAYYYYYYYY-YUMMMMMMM!

[+AuntieWeasel]

Oh, Whofar. C'mon, you gotta!

 

And your sig item could be one of these:

 

 

Ladies and gentlemen, the self-inflating whoopee cushion! It's got a litte sponge inside that expands when you release it and re-inflates it. Put your thumb over the grommet to whoopee.

 

I was going to stamp my AuntieWeasel stamp on the back and use them as a sig item, for those especially good caches. Auntie Weasel's Toot of Approval. Never got around to pricing them in bulk, though.

 

Be my guest, Mister Tidd.

I bet those sound really gross if a little bit of water gets in them.
