I was able to log my own Lab-Cache

[+Saenger]

I created my first Lab-Cache two days ago, and on my way to play another one in the vicinity I tried to play my own one. Surprisingly I was allowed to play it, log the waypoints and even got the 350 points for the new summit souvenirs.

Is this the intended way to work, or is it a bug? I mean, the counting of each waypoint of one Lab-Cache, i.e. one Multi, is as well considered to be not a bug but a feature, so this may as well be intended.

That is not a bug. Yes you can complete your own adventure labs.

I regard logging your own stuff as a bug.

Perhaps it's intentional, but I fail to see any logic behind this.

These were the choices you gave me.

It is the intended way to work for adventure labs. It is not a bug.

Then why did you log your own adventure lab?

Just in case you did not realize this you can delete your logs for the adventure labs. And if you did a five location adventure lab you should have gotten 1750 points for that.

Because it was my first one and I played a wee bit around. I deleted my logs afterwards, they were discounted from my souvenir points, but are still in the Lab-Cache-Stats.

I'm not sure if this was consciously intended functionality by the developers or, to quote HQ's own words, one of the seemingly many "rough edges and loose ends" that haven't been addressed.

I don't remember seeing that anywhere.  Please explain.  Thanks.  

I feel that it was in error, especially when all the "other" options to log your own cache was discontinued some time ago. Thank goodness...

It seems (to me) to be more about someone decided to just deal with it now, since so many apparently already did.
