Ghost Train [closed]
I'm a little confused about the cache <i>Ghost Train</i><br>
<br>
It appears to have a valid <a href="http://www.geocaching.com/seek/cache_de ... 157052">GC </a>and <a href="http://geocaching.com.au/cache/ga0091">GA</a> waypoint code, where should it be logged if I found it? GC.com gc.com.au or both?<br>

Hi,
The problem could also be due to fact that there is a difference between the two caches with capitalisation.......When importing my logs manually (yes i know you don't need to ) It comes up with 4 "ghost train" or variations.....
Your GA cache has a capital "G", capital "T" whereas the GC cache is Capital "G", small "t".....remember names are case sensitive. I was interested in this topic as i was the last person to log Ghost Train by Stanwell at Charters Towers, Queensland There now seems to be 2 caches with the original one at http://geocaching.com.au/cache/gckk55
My suggestion would be that if you want to register at both sites, do it at GC first to make sure the cache name is not already taken
Edit::
Eric, See if you can change the GA name to "Ghost train" to line up with your GC registration.... that should fix the problem. Otherwise some tweaking by i! & Co. will be needed.

its in two places on gca<br>
http://geocaching.com.au/cache/GCMMHX is a mirror of the GC one the two linked to above are the GC one and a stand alone GCA one. FYI Acts2 if you want it on both sites just make it on GC then GCA will copy it. if you make it on GCA then on GC then GCA copies that you end up with three listings.
<br><br>
I suggest this could all be solved by scraping the GCA one that is not a copy of the GC one. If this is all to confounding let i! know.

Not really fixed....not your problem now though....there are 3 "ghost trains" equivalents on GCA.
Correct me if i'm wrong, you should be "Ghost train" as there is already a "Ghost Train".......note capitals....This may be an issue when importing logs down the track manually or when searching.
Is your GCA log a direct import from GC automatically or did you edit it manually? I would have thought it would have imported with "Ghost train" as the name.
Does it really matter in the end
Will it affect searching etc
Will GSAK etc have problem
Is the sky really blue?
How come my underwear has pink frilly lace on it
