Egg Hunt Treasure - types not appearing

[+The Snowdog]

Sought and found a Letterbox Hybrid early yesterday but that egg has not yet shown as completed. Is this a known issue? Should I just be patient and wait? Thanks!

Your recent letterbox hybrid find was rated 1.5/1.5.  To earn the egg, you need a letterbox hybrid cache that's rated at least two stars for difficulty.  You can click on any treasure to learn about the requirements to earn it.

Aha, read the fine print. Thanks!

Why don’t these two virtuals show up on the map as a qualified for

getting the virtual egg treasure?

I'm not sure what you mean. If you didn't get the egg treasure? Did you complete the celebrating 25 years treasures?

Hi!

Does anyone have an idea why I did not get the Letterbox Egg for this cache?

Difficulty 4,5 should be enough.

 

I already have the traditional Egg and the mystery Egg.

 

Thanks!

No idea. Maybe HQ can help.

If you deleted your original find and then posted another "Found It" log, a treasure will not be awarded.

 

If that's not what happened, perhaps contact Groundspeak (scroll down to "Contact Us" link).

I found a multicache (GC62JH3 with a D=3) to specifically aquire the multicache egg but instead, I was awarded an event momento treasure which disappointed me.  I'm thinking I got the event momento instead of the egg because this cache also had 7 fav pts and event momentos are awarded for caches with a minimum of 3 fav pts.  The trouble for me is that my husband found this cache too but he got the egg.  So, my question is...are these treasures randomly awarded if the cache meets requirments for multiple treasures?  I'd call this a bug because I can't plan/direct to aquire the treasures I specifically need.

Yes indeed they are! For the last treasure collections, I had to plan strategically to make sure that the hardest geocaches would count for where I wanted them to.

Thanks so much for confirming and I will adhere to that advice and plan ahead.

It seems like the treasures should be awarded based on the oldest outstanding one rather than randomly awarded.  Went after the Letterbox Hybrid 2.0+ specifically to complete the Easter Egg since these are far and few between.  My geospouse received the egg, while I was awarded a planet. Now we need to seek out the next closest Letterbox Hybrid and hope that it does not randomly give me another planet.  Sounds like a bug that needs to be fixed.

I don't see that as a bug, but I do wish they would make a statement about how the treasure is awarded in that case.  The software has no idea which treasure you wanted, they only know which one it meets the requirement for.
