bigt.cz Posted August 1, 2010 Share Posted August 1, 2010 How long does it take until GC publish new cache? I have placed one 3 days ago and its still invisible and not published. Year ago, when i placed my first cache, I didnt have to wait for anything Quote Link to comment
GOF and Bacall Posted August 1, 2010 Share Posted August 1, 2010 It usually takes less than three days. Once in a while more than three days. The volunteer reviewers have lives outside of geocaching. Often when it takes longer there is some simple error holding things up. Reviewer you cache submission looking for minor errors, such as forgetting to make sure that the box for "yes, this listing is active..." is checked. Quote Link to comment

knowschad Posted August 1, 2010 Share Posted August 1, 2010 So I have to wait , I have done all what is needed, all necesary small boxes are ticked... I'm afraid so. Remember that the reviewers are unpaid voluntary workers. I will say that we seem to hear most of these questions from European geocachers. I don't know this for sure, but perhaps the volunteers that review in Europe have to cover a much larger territory? Quote Link to comment
bigt.cz Posted August 1, 2010 Author Share Posted August 1, 2010 I didnt know that they are volunteers. Last year, there were no reviewing, so i created this topic... Thanks for replies Quote Link to comment
+The Blorenges Posted August 1, 2010 Share Posted August 1, 2010 I didnt know that they are volunteers. Last year, there were no reviewing, so i created this topic... Thanks for replies For a cache to be listed here on Geocaching.com it has always been necessary for it to be reviewed by a volunteer reviewer before publishing... even last year... even in far-flung corners of Europe. I don't know who is the reviewer for your area but if you look at any recently published cache in your area that has been listed on geocaching.com, you'll see the name of the reviewer next to the first (published) log on the cache page. Good luck - I hope you'll have some contact from your reviewer soon. MrsB Quote Link to comment
