+rlscott Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 Hi! I'm about a month into Geocaching and am in love. It couldn't fit me better. However, in trying to learn about the game - I'm confused about favorites. I AM a Premium member. In order to be able to mark a cache as a favorite, do I need 10 favorite points first? I read the Help document on favorites but still don't really understand how it works. Is there a good resource to explain it? Thanks!! Quote Link to comment
+rlscott Posted March 13, 2018 Author Share Posted March 13, 2018 Thank you, but this is the information that I already read. It didn't answer my question. Quote Link to comment

+cerberus1 Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 (edited) In the new Dashboard, your "Favorites" total is under "Lists" to the left. If using the "old" profile Dashboard, "Favorite points remaining" is under the stat bar on the right. You should have received one FP just for becoming a PM. All your finds count towards FPs your first time (of becoming PM), so unless you used one already, I'd think you have three to start. You gain one FP each time you find ten caches afterwards. That one Favorite Point is what you put on one of your favorite caches. Edited March 13, 2018 by cerberus1 Quote Link to comment
