+Ruud4d Posted October 19, 2010 Share Posted October 19, 2010 Dropped down from #1 to #4. BUT..... My coin is in hands of Zork V who traveled from Ireland through California to North Island, New Zealand. He dipped it in several caches. Added up that makes about 12,000 miles. So when he drops it...

The Event that Zork V "took it to" on 9/14 doesn't take place till 7 November. That doesn't make any since. According to Zork V's profile he as never been to the cache called "Ardgillan I" where he retrieved it on 10/12. Did he forget to log it? Quote Link to comment

+Shilo Posted October 22, 2010 Share Posted October 22, 2010 E-mail sent to Shilo to investigate. I obviously overlooked something here. I will look at it when I get home today. The event log looks like it needs to be deleted if the event hasn't been held yet Quote Link to comment
+Shilo Posted October 22, 2010 Share Posted October 22, 2010 This is why I hate not getting 'took' logs. I was wondering what event you all were talking about. It's on the first page!!! I never looked way back on page one yesterday. Why would I? Obviously the log date is wrong and the event hasn't happened yet. Thanks for bringing this to my attention. I need to watch things closer until Groundspeak fixes the 'took' log issue, if they are ever going to. Quote Link to comment

I need to watch things closer until Groundspeak fixes the 'took' log issue, if they are ever going to. It looks to me like he logged a 'Will Attend' and did a visit with the bug at that time. Funny that GS gives mileage credit for the visit at that time. (It doesn't really make sense to be able to do a VISIT log on a WILL ATTEND). I also noticed that on LAX's Money Pit he logged a Write Note rather than a Discovered, and did a visit there as well. It is a traditional cache, I think he was actually there, but he had been there before. So that would violate rule 2. Quote Link to comment
+Ruud4d Posted October 23, 2010 Share Posted October 23, 2010 (edited) Hi guys, I have deleted the log myself. Luckily I was wondering about the standings and checked in here. To my surprise I saw the discussion that was going on here. Next time just ask me. I really don't bite Now I have to inform ZorkV of the log-deletion. Edit to add correct mileage: 15 431.94 miles Edited October 23, 2010 by Ruud4d Quote Link to comment

+Ruud4d Posted October 24, 2010 Share Posted October 24, 2010 That log has been deleted as well. It didn;t do much to the mileage since he took it to The Strand in California as well. Thanks for keeping an eye on my coin I hope the coin will make it back to Cologne in time. Quote Link to comment

+longtomsilver Posted November 13, 2010 Share Posted November 13, 2010 thanks for the update. well I hope that my butterflies, both of them, will make it to our great GCF2011 EU in August. It would be great. Nevermind of the standings. A couple of weeks ago, I was able to get back a coin which I released into the GC-World in august 2006. But it did only 5440km/3380 mi. I lost quite a few of my coins, but luckily this one came back to me. ..my little sock puppet! Good luck to all and great competition. Until next GCF2011 EU I will have to think about something donating. longtomsilver Quote Link to comment

+Ruud4d Posted December 13, 2010 Share Posted December 13, 2010 I want to appoligize to all who participate in this race. My coin is in first place in the Mileage Standings. But it has been done by 2 cachers. The second cacher is taking it all over New Zealand. I tried to contact him several times but he never responded. Fortunately it has been grabbed by another cacher on 12-12. He says he will take it to Hawaii. Hopefully it will start traveling as it is supposed to do. Quote Link to comment

I don't think you need to apologize ... he is racking up the mileage, go buddy go!! Mine went through a 'dipping' phase as well, I think it is fine as long as the cacher is finding new caches with it. Quote Link to comment

Only 1 placement since Sunday and it was to our leader in the mileage category. Guess its the winter weather keeping movements down to a trickle. Quote Link to comment
