+parkrrrr Posted March 10, 2003 Share Posted March 10, 2003 I couldn't vote, because there's no option for "ClayJar." Quote Link to comment
+Mopar Posted March 10, 2003 Share Posted March 10, 2003 I'll do it! I'll do it! Ok, I just now started one at gcchat.clayjar.com Don't mind the clayjar part, thats just my sock puppet account.

+Marky Posted March 10, 2003 Share Posted March 10, 2003 I was going to start a gcchat but it looks like Mopar has stole my idea! --Marky "All of us get lost in the darkness, dreamers learn to steer with a backlit GPSr" Quote Link to comment
+The Leprechauns Posted March 10, 2003 Share Posted March 10, 2003 Hey! I've got a better idea... what if we all agree that we will meet once a week in this "chatroom" Mopar speaks of... at a given time... and call it the "official weekly geocaching chat?" This would be in addition to the informal chat at other times. I bet you that we could gather at least 30 geocachers together. How about Mondays at 8:30 p.m. Central Time? x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x I was formerly employed by the Department of Redundancy Department, but I don't work there anymore.

Very good idea, but since its my chatroom, I say we go with Tuesdays, say 02:30 UTC. Tae-Kwon-Leap is not a path to a door, but a road leading forever towards the horizon. Quote Link to comment
+Mr. Snazz Posted March 10, 2003 Share Posted March 10, 2003 ...can we please stop calling freenode channels "Chat rooms"? According to websters: noun, 1986: any real-time on-line interactive discussion group in which you are promptly asked your Age, Sex, and Location. I mean, I could see calling the "clayjar chat" a chatroom if it were hosted in efnet or (shudder) DALnet, but... Quote Link to comment

You don't get asked that in #geocache? Maybe it's you. Have you tried switching deodorants? Quote Link to comment

Sorry, I was afraid I might be accused of being "elitist" and using confusing acronyms to stomp down the newbies if I called it IRC or Internet Relay Chat. Don't forget the Secret Rules of Geocaching. Rule #1, everything must be dumbed down to the lowest common denominator. Rule #2, everything must be made simple and easy enough for every single person to find it every time. Tae-Kwon-Leap is not a path to a door, but a road leading forever towards the horizon.

I tried to, but when I looked up "lowest common denominator" in my math books, there was no such thing. I think it's a conspiracy between geocaching.com and Addison-Wesley. Quote Link to comment

+Thallas Posted March 10, 2003 Share Posted March 10, 2003 The Michigan Geocaching Org. (MiGO) already has a chat, and its on the same server as the one Mopar set up. Join channel #MiGO There is usually someone idling there, if not chatting. Michigan Geocaching Org Quote Link to comment

+flask Posted March 11, 2003 Share Posted March 11, 2003 mr. snazz isn't the only one who has one... it doesn't matter if you get to camp at one or at six. dinner is still at six. Quote Link to comment
+ClayJar Posted March 11, 2003 Share Posted March 11, 2003 Is it just me, or do you guys go all zany whenever I'm not watching? (They're actually quite polite in the chat... most of the time. ) Anyway, as you can probably glean from the above posts, there is indeed an official geocaching chat. It's been going on weekly for 60 weeks now (not missed a single one), and there are almost always a few people there (definitely in the evenings).
