+kalman Posted May 17, 2003 Share Posted May 17, 2003 (edited) New locationless caches are currently not accepted for posting but do you have new topics in your mind for new locationless caches ? I am about to design following unless they are already published. Architecture of Alvar Aalto Giant's kettle (hiidenkirnu in Finnish) kalman Edited December 2, 2003 by Tahu Nuva Quote Link to comment
+Captain Morgan Posted August 15, 2003 Share Posted August 15, 2003 They sound great as a locationless caches! Here's some more suggestions: Lynx statue (the globe is full of stone bears, lions etc. but lynxes are rare.) Place where has been a real treasure, like money hidden centuries ago etc. Quote Link to comment

+Kettu Posted August 15, 2003 Share Posted August 15, 2003 I'm planning a Finland-specific locationless cache with "the poor old men", that is vaivaisukko. You know, those old wooden statues with a money-hole, which still stand in the vicinity of many churches. But that's not the whole point in it: I feel a small thorn in my heart for not being so terribly generous with charity lately, so I'm planning to then give at least 5 euros to charity for each 10 found vaivaisukkos. But even if the old wooden men were skimming money also for missionaries and church, I will rather cast my coins only on some secular needs. Quote Link to comment

+Divine Posted December 3, 2003 Share Posted December 3, 2003 Would stuffed Lynx be qualified also? I happen to know one Stuffed? Nope. I guess the qualifying policy will depend on who 'places' the lynx locationless. Quote Link to comment
+Captain Morgan Posted December 3, 2003 Share Posted December 3, 2003 Would stuffed Lynx be qualified also? I happen to know one Stuffed? Nope. I guess the qualifying policy will depend on who 'places' the lynx locationless. Nope again. Stuffed are too common to be locationless.... Quote Link to comment
+Divine Posted December 3, 2003 Share Posted December 3, 2003 Nope again. Stuffed are too common to be locationless.... Guess that's up to the approver. Quote Link to comment
+Captain Morgan Posted December 3, 2003 Share Posted December 3, 2003 Nope again. Stuffed are too common to be locationless.... Guess that's up to the approver. Perhaps, but about a year ago i tried to make couple of locationless caches and they were all unapproved because the objects were too common. If you are thinking what is rare and what is not, searching from Google will usually help a lot. Quote Link to comment
+Geovius Posted August 16, 2005 Share Posted August 16, 2005 It seems that locationless caches are now back with a name Waymarking. More information: Waymarking FAQ Quote Link to comment
+Captain Morgan Posted August 16, 2005 Share Posted August 16, 2005 It seems that locationless caches are now back with a name Waymarking.More information: Waymarking FAQ That's right. We should now just translate the word to finnish. And the first finnish waymarks have already been published: Plevna McDonalds Koskikeskus Tampere Coyote bar & Grill and Captain Morgan Couple of more is still under review... Quote Link to comment
hidehairy Posted August 16, 2005 Share Posted August 16, 2005 It seems that locationless caches are now back with a name Waymarking.More information: Waymarking FAQ Ainoastaan Premium membereille... Mutta ihan hyvä, locat... äh waymarkit ovat mainio lisä kätköilyn rinnalle. Waymarkin voinee kääntää vaikka -paikan merkitseminen -> paikkamerkki TAI -pisteen merkitsemnen -> merkkipiste Hmm... ihan vaan ideoina. Locationlessit olivat ihan mielenkiintoinen gps-peli, jolla ei sinänsä itse kätköilyn kanssa ollut sen enempää tekemistä. Toivottavasti waymarkit ovat samantyylisiä. Saa nähdä synnyttääkö kukaan waymarkien suhteen ideologista keskustelua siitä pitäisikö esim. mahdollisesti perustettavan yhdistyksen ottaa suojiinsa sellainen toiminta koska se ei ole kätköilyä (arvaus kun en pääse lukemaan tuota faqia). Oletettavasti sitä ei kyseenalaisteta, koska se on GC:n suojissa. Jätänkin kirjoittamatta aikomani aasinsillan koska kaikki jo arvaavat mitä aioin jatkaa... Quote Link to comment

Toivottavasti waymarkit ovat samantyylisiä. Minusta näyttää että WM:t ovat hyvin kaukana varsinaisesta kätköilystä vaikka vanhat LL:t sinne tuupataankin (jos omistaja tahtoo). Eihän noissa mäkkärien listaamisessa edes tarvita geepeeässää. Toivoisin että tilastonikkarit eivät laske näitä oikeiden kätköjen kanssa yhteen. Quote Link to comment
+Captain Morgan Posted August 17, 2005 Share Posted August 17, 2005 Waymarkit avataan kaikille kätköilijöille syksyn aikana, kunhan ensin tuo locationless-konvertointi saadaan läpi. Ja tulevaisuudessa myös webbikamerat, virtuaalit ja benchmarkit siirtyvät sinne. Geocaching.com'iin jäävät siis vain "oikeat" rasialliset geokätköt. Oikealla linjalla ovat ainakin minun mielestäni. Ja waymarkeissa pyritään pois pisteiden keruusta, saa nähdä onnistuuko. Jokatapauksessa waymarkkeihin saa logata myös vanhoja käyntejä vaikka viime vuosituhannelta ja waymarkin luoja saa logata oman waymarkkinsa vierailluksi. Quote Link to comment

+PekkaR Posted September 17, 2005 Share Posted September 17, 2005 Mahtaisiko onnistua kirjautumalla Waymarking-sivulle ja sieltä vasemman reunan valikosta Foorumeihin? Kirjautumisen jälkeen ryhmät näkyvät myös kaikkien foorumeiden etusivun alalaidassa. Onkohan teidän jäsenyys vielä aktivoitumaton kun nimimerkin edessä ei näy punaista plussaa? Näkyykö foorumeiden etusivulla kolmas jäsenille tarkoitettu ryhmä Off topic? Se on viimeinen General Geocaching Discussions -ryhmässä. Quote Link to comment
+Fundamental Posted September 17, 2005 Share Posted September 17, 2005 Ilmeisesti ollaan sitten aktivoitumattomia? Mites sitä oikein voi aktivoitua? Quote Link to comment
