+LizardSally Posted March 8, 2011 Share Posted March 8, 2011 Seems to me that there used to be a way to view all my found logs (or DNF logs, or notes, etc) on a page instead of having to click "view log" to see each log. Is there still a way to do this? Quote Link to comment

Is there still a way to do this? On 'Your Profile' page, just below where it says Your Logs (last 30 days) ... click on Show logs for all 'Geocaches'. You then have options to filter by found, archived, did not find etc etc Quote Link to comment
+LizardSally Posted March 8, 2011 Author Share Posted March 8, 2011 That doesn't show the actual logs though. It just shows me a list of geocache names. I have to click on where it says "view log" to actually read each log. I was hoping for something that would show me all the logs on one page so that it's easier to remember which ones I want to "favorite" after I've been out on a caching run. (I log my finds from the iPhone app - but it doesn't let you "favorite" a cache, unfortunately.) Quote Link to comment

Go to the same page, but click on the word 'Geocaches' (where it says Quick View | Lists | Geocaches (Yours) | Trackable Items (Yours) etc, etc. This will show you your last few logs (max of 15) Quote Link to comment
+Delta68 Posted March 8, 2011 Share Posted March 8, 2011 http://www.geocaching.com/my/geocaches.aspx (as explained by Maple Leaf) If you then click on a day on the calender it shows ALL the logs for that day Mark Quote Link to comment

+Delta68 Posted March 8, 2011 Share Posted March 8, 2011 Perfect!! Thank you Mark!! You're welcome! However, you might notice that sort order is sometimes incorrect. I reported this and it's in the queue to be fixed (See here) Mark Quote Link to comment

DNFs are something to be proud of. Especially if you're a proud member of the I Suck At Geocaching group on Facebook like I am!! Quote Link to comment

DNFs are something to be proud of. Especially if you're a proud member of the I Suck At Geocaching group on Facebook like I am!! DNF's are a badge of Honor. It's means you tried and were willing to admit it - it's all a part of the fun of geocaching. Quote Link to comment
+LizardSally Posted March 8, 2011 Author Share Posted March 8, 2011 Absolutely! I'm not afraid to post DNFs and I don't delete them either, as some do. Quote Link to comment
+simplysup Posted March 8, 2011 Share Posted March 8, 2011 Eeeeek! Just followed the instructions and discovered that we've had 89 DNF's!!! How depressing I'm pleased geocaching.com is back up, as I was so intrigued when I saw you could see this stat. I have an honourable tally of 216 DNFs, which equates to a failure rate of some 3.3% (of course, some of these DNF's would have been on caches that had gone AWOL). Quote Link to comment
+BlueDeuce Posted March 8, 2011 Share Posted March 8, 2011 There are even some challenge caches that you have to have 100 DNFs to be able to try for it. Quote Link to comment

+Max and 99 Posted March 8, 2011 Share Posted March 8, 2011 DNF's are a badge of Honor. It's means you tried and were willing to admit it - it's all a part of the fun of geocaching. That's my philosophy. I'm so surprised at how many of the locals won't log their DNFs. They tell me they went looking and can't find a cache, but there's no online logs to document the DNFs.

+LizardSally Posted March 8, 2011 Author Share Posted March 8, 2011 Someone asked me for a hint for a cache the other day, he said he had looked for it several times but couldn't find it. He hadn't logged a DNF though, so I politely declined to provide a hint for him until he had logged at least 1 DNF for that cache. Quote Link to comment
roger-rabbit Posted March 9, 2011 Share Posted March 9, 2011 Perhaps there should be achievement coins for DNF’s as there is for finds. Quote Link to comment
+Delta68 Posted March 9, 2011 Share Posted March 9, 2011 Perhaps there should be achievement coins for DNF’s as there is for finds. You can get a DNF geocoin: Although only logging it into caches you didn't find would be a bit odd Mark Quote Link to comment
