legomaxerl 2 Posted April 4, 2020 I try to place a cache and there is a problem about distance to a mystery cache of wihich i dont see nothing while creating it. The map only shows traditionals. i also dont get the information where i can move my cache to? why dont the system shows everthing that is too close to the position? one of my friends also had the problem and speaking statistiks i think, that a lot of people must have head the same problem. why?????

Keystone 3458 Posted April 5, 2020 So you're asking for the final waypoints of mystery caches, multi-caches, letterbox hybrid caches, and Wherigo caches to show up in the planning map? If that was done, it would spoil the locations and cache design of up to 672,264 geocaches. Final waypoints for these cache types are hidden from view in the planning map. 4 Quote Share this post Link to post

In some cases a reviewer has given me a hint, for example, move the cache 10 meters to southwest. Sometimes the area is so saturated that there is no place for a cache. Have you asked a hint from your local reviewer? 1 Quote Share this post Link to post

Every geocacher in the world is in the same situation. Search the forum and you'll find hundreds of the same discussions about your exact same question. 1 1 Quote Share this post Link to post

You've solved or found two puzzle geocaches. You know how this works! 2 1 Quote Share this post Link to post
legomaxerl 2 Posted April 5, 2020 Hello and good evening here. Thanks for the tip with asking for a hint. i will try that I would like to solve the mystery to find it out myself but that is not possible as i am not premium. and it is a premium cache To the other arguments: i see the point, that the goal is to prevent cheating. ( i actually dont mind anybody cheating, if thats somebodys way of playing so what) I did not ask for the final coordinates. i just would like to find the system of the shown map to find a away around the issue. and there sure are. u know it is very annoying like for me and my friend we both picked a nice spot with the kids and it was a funny advanture. just so that i can tell the next day, that our new family thing impossible. instead of giving the exact coordinates the system could make a distance marker in the map u see when creating a cache which is not the reqired 160 but somewhat around 200 with a inner radius of 40 in which the exact coordinates can be anywhere and the name of the cache is not shown. that would be my idear. but there sure are others.

+niraD 3309 Posted April 5, 2020 See the Help Center article Check for minimum distance. In particular, pay attention to the section towards the bottom, "Ask a reviewer to check coordinates". This system works for identifying an acceptable cache location before you invest anything in the construction of an elaborate cache. Quote Share this post Link to post
