+Team kizb Posted September 22, 2011 Share Posted September 22, 2011 (edited) How does a cacher find a cache hidden in 1996? If you look HERE his cachers stats back it up. Interesting to say the least. A bug in the website? Edited September 22, 2011 by Team kizb Quote Link to comment

+lamoracke Posted September 22, 2011 Share Posted September 22, 2011 (edited) well, considering he mentioned in his found log that it was well into his 1000s he found that...he probably put the wrong date and somehow, Geocaching.com has built the stats around that. At least it was a cache called Liar's cache! I wonder if he had logged it April 2000 instead would it have filled in the Jasmer grid one more spot. Makes his stats show up in another weird way.... 3064 consecutive days without a find from 01/02/1996 to 05/23/2004 Edited September 22, 2011 by lamoracke Quote Link to comment
+Team kizb Posted September 22, 2011 Author Share Posted September 22, 2011 Tired changing the date hidden on one of my caches to 1990, it worked, but doesn't change stats of cachers that have already found it. Quote Link to comment
+Keelmann And Cici Posted September 22, 2011 Share Posted September 22, 2011 It's a liars cache. They lied about the date. Simple. Quote Link to comment
+Team kizb Posted September 22, 2011 Author Share Posted September 22, 2011 But when you go to log the find, 2001 is the oldest year you can use. Quote Link to comment
+jhellwig Posted September 22, 2011 Share Posted September 22, 2011 If you look through the list of caches found by him is says that the user found it on 10/10/2006 yet the log says 1/1/1996 so... a glitch. Quote Link to comment

A bug in the website? Due to an anomaly in the space time consortum I logged a TB or so back in 1997, and a few in 1999. http://www.geocaching.com/seek/log.aspx?LUID=72a9a29d-bbea-4fc8-b383-9919ed98b64b http://www.geocaching.com/track/log.aspx?LUID=b899af5d-de48-4473-b764-8bdff9da5965 http://www.geocaching.com/track/log.aspx?LUID=3019848d-b504-4326-9798-1a617541fb47 Quote Link to comment
+sillygirl & jrr Posted September 23, 2011 Share Posted September 23, 2011 I believe that when you hide a cache you can set any date as the hide date, check out This cache I think the hider set that date for the story of the cache; we ended up changing our find to a note so it didn't show up as "our oldest cache found." Once that cache was archived the hide date can no longer be edited. If you use GSAK to generate stats you can change the hide date of a cache. jrr Quote Link to comment
+Dgwphotos Posted September 24, 2011 Share Posted September 24, 2011 (edited) He didn't drive a Delorean to the cache, did he? Edited September 24, 2011 by Dgwphotos Quote Link to comment
