Rumor Mill

What sort of geocaching rumors have you heard? Jeremy selling the site? NFS banning caches? CoAdmin going to navicache?

 

Post them here so that Seattle can debunk them.

I heard that there was soon going to be a new type of cache, called a "Biocache". It involves implanting a tiny GPSr+transmitter unit into a person/frog/hamster. This unit continually tracks the location of the biocache and transmits the coords to GC.com using cell phone technology. The cache page is updated every few seconds, showing the biocache's current location. To log the cache, you must find the person/frog/hamster and buy them a beverage of their choice, at which point they will provide a password enabling you to log a find.

 

The only thing holding this up is the question of whether the cache hider must be the biocache, or will hiders be allowed to implant biocache units into unsuspecting geomuggles, thus attracting a larger population to our activities.

Well there's the old rumor that Criminal is actually Jeremy!

 

;)

What? Over here I'm accused of being Travis' brother. You're all my brothers, OK?

 

I hear Woodsters has never really been outdoors! He's nothing but a pulsating brain living in a vial of greenish liquid!

  • The Geocaching.com website emits a whistle that only dogs can hear.
  • The govenment is lacing ammo cans with LSD to make them more addictive.
  • That Mikey kid from the Life cereal commercial was killed when he mistook a pipe bomb for a geocache.
  • Gladware is a viable substitute for Rubbermaid containers
  • The government has a huge geocache hidden in the Nevada desert
  • If you pull up the geocaching website on your laptop, then dip your laptop in a tub of lukewarm water, the screen will mysteriously turn black.
  • If you read Hydee's signature line backwards it says "Jeremy is dead."

I heard... that 9key just saved a whole bunch of money on his car insurance by switching to Geico...

 

A 15 minute call could save you... nevermind

I heard ju66l3r was starting his own geocaching site. ;)

"Rumors of my site's existance or non-existance are highly exaggerated!" To borrow from Twain.

 

In honesty, I'll debunk this one. My thread is not even a divining rod for whether I could float a new site equal to GC.com. I don't have the time, even when I'm not doing research for my PhD (all 3 hours of the day....that I spend here anyways).

 

I want to see and display the feasibility of such a thing as another site so that those who would suggest I , and others in disagreement with GS on potential applications and directions for GC.com, go somewhere else realize that there is little other place to go because of the lock on the data here....

 

Rumor has it that opencaching.com has pretty much folded too, for similar reason....

I hear they are considering closing the forums because of all the crap.

I heard that only Premium Members will have access to the forums...... ;)

I heard that the forums will charge like text messages on cell phones--if you don't pay the $3 per month, it is $.10 per post.....

I've heard that J5 has a dozen or more "sock puppet" accounts, just so he can have someone to argue with and win.

Not true. Why would I need sock puppet acounts to win arguments when I've got you? ;)

Ooooo, a fun thread that hasn't been locked yet.

 

I heard that Criminal and Goofus keep Gallant , as a "Gimp," in a locked box, in Criminal's basement.

 

They tried to make a cache out of the box, but it was archived by TPTB after JoeFrog stuffed it full of dead monkeys.

 

Sn :huh:;) gans IBTL!

I have it on good authority that anyone posting to this thread will have their warn-meter maxed out, and will be locked out of the forums for 90 days. This is why I am posing as Desert_Warrior instead of myself to post to this thread.

I heard that there are no approvers or moderators -- they all are computer programs developed by NASA, now being run by the National Park Service in a covert effort to get us all to put caches on their land so they can take away our GPS units and ruin our fun ;)

It won't get locked it has "Geocaching Undertones"

 

Rumor has it that groundpeak is looling for new, tougher admins. I hacked into Jeremy's email and found this:

 

To: Hydee

RE: New Admin Project

 

I want rustlers, cut throats, murderers, bounty hunters, desperados, mugs, pugs, thugs, nitwits, halfwits, dimwits, vipers, snipers, con men, Indian agents, Mexican bandits, muggers, buggerers, bushwhackers, hornswogglers, horse thieves, bull dykes, train robbers, bank robbers, a**-kickers, s***-kickers and Methodists.

That's correct Stunod! You win a new... uh... you don't win jack but thats for playing.

 

Rumor has it that Stunod is not really a stupid it's just the word Donuts spelled backwards.

<snip> and Methodists.

 

(movie trivia, who can name that quote?)

Rumor has it that I'm a Methodist.

 

But I still tell people, I used to be a Methodist, but now I'm a Christian. That doesn't go over well with the pastor, don't know why......
