Mr Zombie Posted September 2, 2011 Posted September 2, 2011 I had an idea that involves leaving a TB (or other trackable) tracking code in multiple locations for people to discover. Instead of finding the trackable item itself it would be something like a business card with the number on it that finders could use to log a discovery. What are your thoughts on doing something like this as I am aware that *technically* you shouldn't discover a trackable unless you've seen the item with your own eyes. Quote
+tomtwogates Posted September 2, 2011 Posted September 2, 2011 Why would you do this? If I give you a list my travelers - would you then discover them - for what purpose other than increasing your trackable count? A no-no for me! Quote
Mr Zombie Posted September 2, 2011 Author Posted September 2, 2011 Why would you do this? The basic idea was for hiding bonus caches close to the actual cache that people *could* discover if they find a hidden easter-egg in a puzzle or multi-cache, for example. Quote
MnCo Posted September 2, 2011 Posted September 2, 2011 The basic idea was for hiding bonus caches close to the actual cache that people *could* discover if they find a hidden easter-egg in a puzzle or multi-cache, for example. Then to my mind, you should do this as a Puzzle or Challenge Cache Series which would allow the finders to collect clues at the cache(s) which would lead them to the bonus cache. Quote
+Bear and Ragged Posted September 2, 2011 Posted September 2, 2011 (edited) I had an idea that involves leaving a TB (or other trackable) tracking code in multiple locations for people to discover.

What are your thoughts on doing something like this as I am aware that *technically* you shouldn't discover a trackable unless you've seen the item with your own eyes. Stands a good chance of the trackable being 'Locked' by Groundspeak, and no-one able to log it, if they find out. Part of Virtual Logging, and frowned on.

Mr Zombie Posted September 2, 2011 Author Posted September 2, 2011 Thanks for the feedback - looks like I'll have to scrap that idea if it breaks the rules. Quote
+Hesamati Posted September 5, 2011 Posted September 5, 2011 My interpretation is that you want to use the TBs as incentives/to add interest... If so why not make every hide/container a separate TB, i.e. fix a unique TB tag to each container for a multi? Quote
