+geoBirder Posted August 21 Share Posted August 21 Curious if anyone has any thoughts on what next month’s challenge might be. Is it truly luck of the draw (spin), or is HQ following a pattern? Thanks! Quote Link to comment
+Max and 99 Posted August 21 Share Posted August 21 (edited) I'm hoping for the Friend League. It is absolutely not by luck of the draw! Edited August 21 by Max and 99 Quote Link to comment

Just going geocaching with friends? Or like that “Friend to Find (FTF challenge) that was out a few years ago? Edited August 21 by geoBirder Typo Quote Link to comment

If you get enough points you get the souvenir. 1 Quote Link to comment

+CheekyBrit Posted August 21 Share Posted August 21 My guess is they film spinning the wheel enough times each month to get a new challenge they haven't had yet, so a small degree of random that excludes duplicates. 1 1 Quote Link to comment
+Bonnie_ft_Clyde Posted August 22 Share Posted August 22 If the pattern was chosen beforehand, I don't think there would have been the two streak challenges in a row. 1 2 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment
+fizzymagic Posted August 23 Share Posted August 23 I am worried about a challenge involving multis, so I have been purposely finding fewer multis this summer. Probably not what the challenges were intended to do, but since I generally hate multis, any that I have final coordinates for are potentially precious. 1 Quote Link to comment
+thebruce0 Posted August 23 Share Posted August 23 I wanted to try to fill my calendar grids for letterbox and multi finds, but there are so few left near home that I've skipping so many the last few months. If there's a wheel challenge requiring either of those it'll give me more incentive to go farther for it on any day I already need one 1 Quote Link to comment
+fuzziebear3 Posted August 24 Share Posted August 24 These challenges do exactly what HQ says challenge caches are not allowed to do, which is to negatively influence my caching. I end up getting 'just what I need', and saving all the rest because I feel I will need them for the next part of the challenges. 4 Quote Link to comment

I also save all my nearby ECs for the yearly souvenir. 1 2 Quote Link to comment
