+Crew 153 Posted November 18, 2017 Share Posted November 18, 2017 I run quite a few PQs (up to 70 over 3 accounts) which are set up for different states, different Published date ranges and set for "Updated in the last 7 days. Normally these PQs produce 400-700 caches each but a lot of the ones which have run in the last couple of days are returning the maximum 1000 caches. The last time this happened the lackeys were playing around with changes to the log dates. Is something like this happening again? Quote Link to comment
+HHL Posted November 18, 2017 Share Posted November 18, 2017 "Updated in the last 7 days" also includes caches with any kind of logs added in the last 7 days, Which makes that parameter pretty much useless. Hans Quote Link to comment
+MartyBartfast Posted November 18, 2017 Share Posted November 18, 2017 Yep I just noticed this too. Quote Link to comment
+van der Decken Posted November 18, 2017 Share Posted November 18, 2017 The last time this happened HQ was doing behind the scenes work that resulted in caches that hadn't been visited, logged or visibly altered in years showing up in PQs that used the "Updated in the last 7 days" filter. Wouldn't surprise me if that was happening again, and if it is, those PQs will likely all max out until a week after they're done. Quote Link to comment
Keystone Posted November 18, 2017 Share Posted November 18, 2017 Yes, there is a different round of "behind the scenes" work underway that could affect whether a cache would be included in a pocket query, even if there is no visibly apparent update. Quote Link to comment
+Crew 153 Posted November 19, 2017 Author Share Posted November 19, 2017 Thanks Keystone That was what I suspected was causing it. Is there any indication how long this will continue or was it just a once off? Quote Link to comment
Keystone Posted November 20, 2017 Share Posted November 20, 2017 The behavior you observed will likely occur at different rates in different parts of the world. Eventually, in a particular part of the world, the changes will be finished. It could take days, weeks or months, with varying start and end times. Quote Link to comment
