+MountainWoods Posted August 28, 2014 Share Posted August 28, 2014 OK. Some dour moderator is going to come along and tell us to stop. But if one can't interject a little humor (and believe me, we've only been doing a little humor, if any) into a frustrating situation, then what good is it? Quote Link to comment
+Benchmark Blasterz Posted August 28, 2014 Share Posted August 28, 2014 (edited) And now: Haiku! Waymarking, come back! Where else to document the world's uniquities? Whither the icons I need to fill up my grid? Groundspeak, fix your [stuff]! Edited August 28, 2014 by Benchmark Blasterz Quote Link to comment

Could it have been the poetry after all? ha haha Well, the poetry may have delayed things. Some smart alek in the IT department (there's always one in the bunch) was probably reading those poems to the folks trying to get things fixed, and they were reeling from nausea. It's hard to type and think when someone is inflicting such woes on you. Quote Link to comment

+MountainWoods Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 I don't have a batch of waymarks to do now. Are we still good? I seem to have one waymark that's "stuck", but it may just be that the officers are busy - I know how that is! 'cept that I had waymarks approved for the same category before and after the one that is stuck, and it isn't in group vote. So I can't tell if it's the site issue or just busy-like-the-rest-of-us.

+MountainWoods Posted September 2, 2014 Share Posted September 2, 2014 Just did a batch of Waymarks last night and they all went through like greased lightning. Unfortunately, I had to stop because of lightning. We have lost so much equipment in the past (and our well pump 3 times!) due to lightning, that we have to unplug a bunch of stuff and flip the well pump breaker whenever a storm comes through. I put a big knife switch on our phone/DSL line just after it comes into the house from the company's access box outside. We throw the switch and lose all land line and DSL connectivity until the storm is over. Besides the well pump, we have had more loss due to phone line spikes than we have had to the electric power. We've been told that it's because we live at the end of a power distribution. There is about 1/4 mile from the road, down our ridge to our house. And that accumulates all of the spike energy into our phone and AC lines. But our phones get it worst; thus the knife switch. OK. I know that was an aside. But the point is that it looks like Waymarking is doing fine. Thanks Groundspeak! Quote Link to comment
