statistical quirk

[+stites1]

I just noticed that i've never found a cache on the 4th of any month. I'm torn between running out and getting one this April 4 and scrupulously avoiding caching on that date from here on out.

Any streak that keeps you from caching is a bad streak, IMO.

I noticed with the new stats that I have found a grand total of 25 (of 1100) caches through 9 year's of Junes. I have only cached on 10 different June days. I for the life of me can't figure out why?? Makes me want to devote a few days of June to Caching.

I just noticed that I haven't found a cache on any March 7th - 12th. It's more than double the longest of my other consecutive days without a find.

 

On the other hand I've found 23 caches on 12/29, which is considerably more than the next closest day (16). And for a four day period, Dec 27th to 30th totals nearly triple the number of finds of any other 4 day period. This happens to be the week I visit my in-laws, so it appears that I'm making it a point to get out of the house when I'm there. .

This is why I never loaded any stats programs

 

like you, once I've seen it, there would something strangely attractive about preserving that white row for all time.... of course, to be more impressive, all the other days need to be filled in.

Let's just hope your inlaws don't take up caching and read the forums!!! :laughing:

I would avoid caching on the 4th from here on out. That's what makes the most sense.

Naw. I'm having fun trying to fill in my calendar!

Though I do wonder how I managed to find 27 caches on Feb 20s, but none on March 6 (until today). (Did a 5/5 as a cache and dash. Long story there...)

27 on May 18, but only 1 on May 19???

Got 6 days to fill in my calendar, but one is Feb 29...

I have excuses for most of my missing days.. first days of deer hunting, an annual Orienteering event for which I am responsible, Feb 29th.. the rest are just random days that will eventually get filled.

I'm that way with April. While typically a very pleasant month to cache, I've only managed about 40 out of 1800 finds in April. I've figured the reasons why: morel season begins around here and after a couple of light caching months Dec-Feb, I go nuts in March then take a step back in April and actually spend time with the wife.
