+Flarmonster Posted May 19, 2022 Share Posted May 19, 2022 I feel like the answer to this may be easy and obvious, but I can't find it. I was one D/T away from a second fizzy grid completion and suddenly one of my 5/4 finds disappeared. How would this have happened? Did someone change the D/T of a cace I found? Was it archived? How could I discover which cache it was? Thanks for any help! Quote Link to comment
+The Leprechauns Posted May 19, 2022 Share Posted May 19, 2022 By far the most common reason for this is when a Cache Owner changes the D/T rating for one of their caches. I can relate to your frustration, as this happened to me no fewer than three times as I was trying to complete my first Fizzy Grid. I'm now on my 7th loop so I don't worry about it/notice the problem anymore. The best way to figure out what happened is to use the Project-GC tool for DT History changes. This is available only to paying members of Project-GC. I used this tool with your username and you will see the answer in the screenshot below. The cache owner for "THE HUNT FOR THE GOLDEN SKULL" changed the rating for their cache from 5.0/4.0 to 5.0/4.5. 2 1 Quote Link to comment
+fuzziebear3 Posted May 19, 2022 Share Posted May 19, 2022 Yes, it is likely someone changed one of the D/T on one you had found. Archiving wouldn't do it. As for finding which one, that I dont have a good method for. Quote Link to comment
+Flarmonster Posted May 19, 2022 Author Share Posted May 19, 2022 Leprechauns, Thank you SO much for doing that work for me! While its a little frustrating, I can understand why he would change that rating. And at least I know why now Have a great day! Quote Link to comment

This is a new, beta tool... I was hoping something like this might come along at some point. Do you know when this was released? Quote Link to comment

The project-GC wiki page for it was created in November 2020, so on or before 16 November 2020. 1 Quote Link to comment
+The Leprechauns Posted May 19, 2022 Share Posted May 19, 2022 According to the Project-GC news page, there was a quiet release of the D/T History tool at the end of 2018. Quote Link to comment
