Edit AL Bonus words

[+GoofyShan]

I completed my first AL (games) that included Bonus Info. I expected to have an additional area to enter the Bonus characters after submitting the word to show I completed that portion. However, it appears that I needed to add the bonus characters to the actual answer itself. Is there a way to go back and edit my answer when everything is complete?

 

EX - entered GameName

EX - Should have been GameName6A

 

If you tell me I need to delete the portions of the AL, do I have to play the games all over again to be able to enter the answer?

Thanks so much!! I just got back into caching recently.

If the ad lab's complete, you got all the answers correct — there's only 1 correct answer for each stage.

 

The ad lab is likely referring to a bonus cache.

The bonus typically, in my experience, refers to information needed for a bonus geocache after you complete the adventure lab. 

 

When you go back and read the journals, what do they say? What information do they give you?

 

Which adventure lab are you referring?

I'm guessing that you completed "Let's Play A Game: Adventure Lab #1" by CacheSleuth.

 

The bonus geocache in question is https://www.geocaching.com/geocache/GCA7XA4_lets-play-a-game-adventure-lab-bonus-1. At the bottom of the description is a link. Click this link, and then "Adventure Bonus #1". After a moment, you will be greeted with a page with five inputs. This is the page where you are to enter, for instance, "GameName6A". Then, you'll receive the coordinates to the location of GCA7XA4.

 

It's worth noting that this is a very unique Adventure Lab. Many Adventure Labs do not have bonus caches attached. Those that do often just give you blanks to fill (ie. "N 12 34.ABC", and the completion messages for the stages will say things like "A=5", "B=6", "C=7", etc.)
