+newfane1 Posted August 26, 2017 Share Posted August 26, 2017 I do not show a souvenir for 2017 International Geocaching Day. When I logged a cache that day I received the notice I earned one. It has yet to appear. Any ideas why? Thanks to anyone that has an answer. Mark. "Newfane1" Quote Link to comment
+noncentric Posted August 26, 2017 Share Posted August 26, 2017 That's odd. You may need to contact the Help Center to get that souvenir onto your profile. Keep in mind that it's the weekend, so it shouldn't be surprising if you don't hear back right away. Quote Link to comment

Not sure if it showed up automatically on their profile, or if they had to contact the Help Center. It's not uncommon that cachers post in the forums that a souvenir is missing from their profile. Sometimes they just have to wait a few hours for their profile to update and sometimes they have to contact the Help Center. What souvenir are you missing? Quote Link to comment

Did you find any caches in August? Maybe I'm just not seeing it, but it seems your profile shows no caches found for that month. Quote Link to comment

+hzoi Posted October 5, 2017 Share Posted October 5, 2017 From the logs on your 2 May 2017 find, looks like you and two other cachers visited on 2 May but didn't log until 3 may -- delayed logs can cause an issue in the souvenir popping up. That said, concur that contacting the Help Center is your best course of action. Quote Link to comment

I suppose for the same reason we don't get a souvenir every time we've visited a country/state with region based souvenirs. I've been to Italy 7 times but I wouldn't expect to get an Italy souvenir every time I found a cache there. The 2017 Blue Switch Day celebrates the day that selective availability was turned off (the blue switch is a metaphor). Why should that be celebrated every year and get a souvenir for doing something as simple as finding a cache that day? Quote Link to comment

Maybe GS will decide to offer another souvenir in the future, but just because they offered it one year doesn't mean we should expect them to offer it every year thereafter. If they do, then great, if they don't, then that's great too. There was a Halloween souvenir offered in 2016, but not in other years. Date-based souvenirs like these are 'surprises'. Some are offered some years, but not every year. Quote Link to comment
