+Mad H@ter Posted January 16, 2011 Posted January 16, 2011 I'm a bit puzzled as to why you should want these archived, if anything they should just be recategorised. If we're going to archive all the caches that have been categorised incorrectly someone is going to be very busy Quote
+keehotee Posted January 16, 2011 Posted January 16, 2011 GCZ35Q GCXTXH Both night caches and both mistakenly place as traditionals. Yes - why on earth would you think they need archiving? Quote
+Just Roger Posted January 16, 2011 Posted January 16, 2011 Night caches are Trads (or multies or puzzles etc) they are not a separate type of cache. They should be shown by having the night attribute set. If it upsets you ask the CO to set the attribute but no reason to archive. Quote
+Happy Humphrey Posted January 16, 2011 Posted January 16, 2011 I've looked at the first one, and it appears that the OP is correct to point out that it's not a traditional (the cache is not at the coordinates). No reason to archive, though, it just needs the cache type amending. Older night caches are quite likely to be wrongly classified. Quote
+mcwomble Posted January 17, 2011 Posted January 17, 2011 When did the unknown/puzzle cache category first appear? Could it be the cache was placed before then? I have recently done an old cache (placed c.2002) which is listed as a trad but it by rights an unknown/puzzle. I had presumed it was in the days before multi-category caching and was probably covered under a grandfather ruling. Quote
+burtsbodgers Posted January 17, 2011 Posted January 17, 2011 I have looked at both caches and they are both listed as mystery caches which would be correct, Quote
+Happy Humphrey Posted January 17, 2011 Posted January 17, 2011 Yes, it looks like they've been corrected. Problem solved. Quote
+FollowMeChaps Posted January 17, 2011 Posted January 17, 2011 Night caches are Trads (or multies or puzzles etc) they are not a separate type of cache. They should be shown by having the night attribute set...... Do you mean "should"? I thought that the attributes were optional, though I don't understand why they are not required. Quote
+Al 7365 Posted January 18, 2011 Author Posted January 18, 2011 No attrubute issue, both caches used to be traditionals. Quote
