+FireRef Posted May 30, 2010 Share Posted May 30, 2010 I follow the idea that one cache=one smiley. I'm not really looking for any debate on this practice. I would like to know if anyone has a quick and easy way (or quicker and easier than manually checking every one) to figure out which cache I double logged. I have been going out with some newbies showing them the ropes, and log my new finds as finds, and old finds as notes, to keep telling the story of my adventures. Sometime in the last roughly 100 finds, I managed to log as found a cache that I had found before. I know this because of running the findstatgen macro for GSAK, telling me I have 1949 finds on 1948 unique caches. The last one I saved was around 1850, and the two numbers matched. Any suggestions? I want to go back and change that find to a note to fix my count. Quote Link to comment

The first line of the stats generated will have a link to List Multiple Finds. Quote Link to comment

Click the Found Count check box. Click the column name. It will sort by how many time you found caches. Quote Link to comment
+FireRef Posted May 30, 2010 Author Share Posted May 30, 2010 Two very good ideas, and I think I have the problem solved. Thank you VERY much! Quote Link to comment
+dfx Posted May 30, 2010 Share Posted May 30, 2010 hm... http://www.geocaching.com/my/logs.aspx?s=1<=2 (with firefox) select all, copy, paste into new text file, let's call it foo.txt $ grep 'Found it' foo.txt | cut -f3 | sort | uniq -c | sort -n voila of course that goes by name and not by GC code, which is why it shows two duplicate logs for me, even though i don't really have any (it's caches with the same name).

+Isonzo Karst Posted May 30, 2010 Share Posted May 30, 2010 As you've got that My Finds PQ in GSAK , you could filter there: Search > Filter > Logs > Found + Required Count > Greater Than or Equal to 2. Quote Link to comment

Yay for Unix/Linux command line-fu! Quote Link to comment

+fizzymagic Posted May 30, 2010 Share Posted May 30, 2010 A quick and easy free solution is my little FindStats program, which gives you a list of multiply-logged caches. Quote Link to comment
