Benchmark find count

[+igator210]

I've never really paid attention, so I have no idea when this happened... My stats page says I've found 50 benchmarks, but if I go into the my benchmark section, I have 52 listed with smilies and 1 with a note. 

 

Is there any easy way to check the discrepancy? 

 

Any idea what would lead to the difference?

That's what yours says for me too, with "total records" of 53.

 

Mine says 12 found, but going to that section shows I have 11 found,  1 write note, and 2 DNF.  

  -    So you gained two, and I "lost" one somehow.   "Total records" does say 14 for me.

I look at stats when someone mentions/asks something, so never really noticed ... but do agree that's odd.

Too much work for me to check mine.  I have 858 finds and 1242 logs.

After going into the logs, I have 50 finds, 2 notes and 1 DNF. So the profile page is correct. 

I guess I never really gave the column "Last Log" much thought and always assumed the symbol applied to me, and not whatever happened after my log.

You have me curious so I looked in my stats. I know we found two benchmarks but they are not listed, only this... Benchmarks are not included in Total Found

Ah, nevermind. I remember now messaging the owner. Here's what he said.

This cache is part of an old 4 part series that had a bonus cache they was muggled. There is only 2 left. Sorry for the inconvenience. As for benchmarks you may not be able to even log them anymore.

UPDATE: It looks like this stat has been removed from the geocaching.com 'your statistics' page. I cannot seem to find it on project-gc either. Any thoughts where to find benchmark count in 2021?

I just now checked with my Android phone and find the benchmark count on the profile/geocache page just like usual.

I never paid much attention to the statistics page so wouldn't know if it changed.

I can still see my Benchmark count (and yours if I go to your profile).  Click on Profile, then the Geocaches tab - the number is still there.  If you click on Benchmarks, it gives a list of allyour logged benchmarks.

Right you are, CAVinoGal.
I thought I had a handful of benchmarks that weren't NGS bench mark disks - I don't see them on the profile page. I wonder what is going on there.
