+PISA-caching Posted November 9, 2018 Share Posted November 9, 2018 When I look at my Visit Milestones the icon for the 400th visit (category French Benchmarks) is twice the size of all the other icons. When I look at the waymark itself, the icon is also twice the usual size. No big problem, but easy to fix. Quote Link to comment
Bon Echo Posted November 9, 2018 Share Posted November 9, 2018 I think the problem there is that the category does not have it's own icon - the one shown is the icon for the Measurement Standards department. I think. Quote Link to comment
Bon Echo Posted November 9, 2018 Share Posted November 9, 2018 Somewhat related: while looking at my Visit Milestones I see that I have one listed for 1000th visit; strange because on my profile it shows Visits: 993 And if I go to "Waymarks I've Visited" it returns 991 - suggesting that two that I visited have since been archived. Milestones, don't get ahead of me! When I look at my Statistics it states: "You've visited 1004 waymarks (993 distinct) since your first visit on 3/8/2013." What does that mean "993 distinct"? Does this mean I visited some waymarks multiple times? I don't recall ever visiting any waymark more than once. But I have posted a few notes to waymarks I also visited. Maybe they are both counted? This calls for another little experiment :0) Quote Link to comment

Next I posted two visit logs to the same waymark and new I get "You've visited 1006 waymarks (994 distinct) since your first visit on 3/8/2013." So yes it looks like I have some double-visits that I don't seem to remember. Oh well Quote Link to comment
+PISA-caching Posted November 9, 2018 Author Share Posted November 9, 2018 I know that I have visited some waymarks more than once. for example this Festival waymark. And my visits stats says "1831 waymarks (1828 distinct)", so that has always been plausible for me. Quote Link to comment

I think. The Icon for the Measurement Standards department has a gray border, while the Icons in the French Benchmarks category have a red border. Quote Link to comment

I thought about that but if that was the case the numbers would be vastly different - if I had to guess, I'd say as many as 20% of my visits are to nearly duplicated waymarks (listed by the same player), maybe even more. I logged 11 visits alone on the CN tower and probably as many at Mount Rushmore, Niagara Falls, more. I guess I must really have posted 11 "additional visits". I did find one waymark that I visited twice. 11 seems high, but over 5 years, that only a couple per year. You think I'd remember, that's all. Quote Link to comment
