+niraD Posted July 12, 2017 Share Posted July 12, 2017 Building a huge Friend League of random people doesn't really do anything useful anyway. To get the Souvenir, each person needs to contribute at least 5 points. If everyone contributes only 5 points, then you need only half a dozen active members of your Friend League to earn the first week's Souvenir. Quote Link to comment

Agree, at least at this stage it's not necessary to have a huge list of people as 6 finds (or 3 if they all have >10 favourite points) will get you the souvenir so would be easy to do on your own. I've never been a big fan of the friends thing, and recently cleared them all out, just got a couple now and I'll be ignoring pleas to add people I don't know.

To get the Souvenir, each person needs to contribute at least 5 points. If everyone contributes only 5 points, then you need only half a dozen active members of your Friend League to earn the first week's Souvenir. I agree. I'm probably one of the few people who like the Friends feature and the option in the new dashboard to see my friends logs. There are especially some friends who I know have similar tastes in caches, I enjoy seeing what they are finding, as I may want to look for those myself. I have other friends who live in different countries, but I like to keep in touch, and if I see they did some interesting caching I may ask them about it. I think that is the kind of thing Groundspeak is trying to encourage. Of course, natural reaction is many are taking this as a competition to get as many friends as they can. Which makes the feature less useful; harder to see what your "real" friends are doing if you have logs from hundreds of random cachers in your "feed". A really nice idea by Groundspeak I think. But yes, adding too many people defeats the real purpose. (But gives your crew a high score). Quote Link to comment

But since Groundspeak hasn't told us how scoring works in weeks 2-4, there's no way to know for sure. So, yeah, I'm one of those guys adding dozens of friends right now that I'll probably just end up deleting a month from now, after I've gotten the souvenirs. It's silly, sure. (On the other hand, I've got a daily streak approaching 5.5 years right now, so "silly" is a pretty mild word for the way I approach this game ...) Quote Link to comment
+Harry Dolphin Posted July 17, 2017 Share Posted July 17, 2017 Wow! I had 70 gold coins for the weekend. And some pirate stole them from me! If GS is going to give me gold coins, they should let me keep them! Instead of stealing them from me like a pirate. 1 Quote Link to comment
