+TennesseeGirl15 Posted March 21, 2018 Share Posted March 21, 2018 We get 15pts for any cache with 10 or more favorite points. So...... Does that mean a mystery cache with 36 favorite points would get me a total of 30 pts? TNGirl15 Quote Link to comment

Ironically, you've picked the one forum oh the site that doesn't actually discuss geocaching. But you're new (to the forums), so this one's free. The scoring system for Planetary Pursuit gives a maximum of 15 points for any given geocache. So since mystery caches by themselves already get 15, there are no extra points for favorite points. Have fun chasing the planets! Edited March 21, 2018 by hzoi Quote Link to comment

+joemanzh Posted March 23, 2018 Share Posted March 23, 2018 Hi all, Today I logged a tradi but there was no souvenir, did I something wrong? The last two days I always earned a souvenir when logging tradis. Mmh? The points are counted. Quote Link to comment

The last two days I always earned a souvenir when logging tradis. Mmh? The points are counted. You don't get the souvenirs for logging Traditionals; you get souvenirs for reaching specified point levels. On the Friend League page, you can click on the "Available souvenirs" button to see the required point totals (see below). The first two are at 5 and 10 points, so you would get a souvenir for the first two Traditionals you found (which are 5 points each), but then the intervals widen and it takes more points to get to the next souvenir. If all you find are Traditionals, you'd need two additional finds to get to the third souvenir (Mercury), then four more for Mars, etc. Edited March 23, 2018 by The A-Team Quote Link to comment

+Paurian Posted March 28, 2018 Share Posted March 28, 2018 I noticed today that when I drop off trackables, points aren’t getting awarded. Is there another glitch in the system like there was last Monday? Quote Link to comment
+Gill & Tony Posted March 28, 2018 Share Posted March 28, 2018 Has anyone else noticed that the souvenir for Saturn is the only one which doesn't contain the words "Planetary Pursuit" in the triangle above the planet (between the ribbons)? 1 Quote Link to comment
+Gill & Tony Posted March 28, 2018 Share Posted March 28, 2018 Following on from the "Pluto is no longer a planet" theme, the wording for the final souvenir is a bit grandiose Quote Congratulations, we're over the moon to award you with this souvenir! You've geocached around the galaxy and can now call yourself an Official Space Explorer. There is no doubt that this intergalactic journey might have had some turbulence but you powered through and we salute you! You’ve earned this souvenir by visiting all nine planets in the solar system and earning 500 points on the Friend League. Erm, we have only geocached around the solar system (maybe Proxima Centauri could be part of the next promotion) and intergalactic means between galaxies. Not complaining, just being pedantic.

+Xira Posted March 29, 2018 Share Posted March 29, 2018 I'm about 3 weeks behind in my logging. A few moments ago, I logged a cache for March 22, being the first cache I've logged since PP started. It was a trad with no favourite points and I dropped 2 trackables into it. How did I end up with 99 points? Quote Link to comment

Thank you. I didn't know that. Yesterday, I logged 5 mystery caches that I found on March 10. It wasn't until this morning, when I logged the first traditional I found on March 22, that the notifications for having earned 5 souvenirs flashed across my screen. When I look at where the points are coming from, it shows today's date for all caches, even though I logged some of them yesterday and all were dated with find dates prior to today. It's giving points for caches that I found before PP started (yes, I logged them afterwards but I did date them correctly). Even more strange, the points earned on those 5 mystery caches are 16, 18, 15, 19, 18. None has more than 4 favourite points. I thought it wasn't possible to earn more than 15 points per cache. The whole thing seems to be broken in several ways. Quote Link to comment

The extra 86 points are gone so I'm down to the 81 points I earned for caches found on March 22. Before that I'd had 167 points which got me the Saturn souvenir. I still have that. When I log my finds for last weekend, then it will legitimately be mine. Quote Link to comment

Yup - when I pull you up in my Friend League, I don't see that you have points for that one. Maybe try deleting the log and then logging your find again? Quote Link to comment
