Moveable Cache Race

[blossom*]

EVERYONE should move them, especially mine There are 5 prizes for the hiders and another 5 prizes for those who move them. So come up to Sydney and move mine anytime

Is there a way to see - when the game starts - what cache is where? I mean, a current listing of MCR caches per state? Or will I have to go to each individual listing?
(If that makes sense)

I have made a public query of moveable caches published between 1-12-09 and 2-12-09 this hopefully will produce a GPX file of only the caches in the game (if published on time)

Or all active moveable caches in Australia

Hope this helps

Hey, that's clever I'm all that I didn't think of it.

On the Caching Games site, there is a map or list view of all the caches....

We're off to a great start - a DNF

There is now, because I stole your query and linked to it
cachinggames.com is owned and run by me.
Thanks for the great idea.

I'm sure this must have been covered somewhere in this (long) thread, but I haven't been following it so forgive me if I'm asking the obvious when I ask whether anyone (not involved in the actual game) can move these caches, or are they intended just for competitors?

Anyone is able to find and move these caches, even if you don't have a cache in the race.

Absolutely. Please move them along. Most of them are now in my computer room to be rehidden tomorrow sometime. Depending on how far you want to ride, you 'may' be able to get them, or maybe not. They might end up in Ballarat to get some mileage and let some of the regions have a few fun finds.

My cache didn't stay long.. Yay?!
Thanks pwags

... and I'm re-hiding it this morning.

Come on Vics - let's keep them all moving around as quickly (and as far) as possible to stay ahead of the other states!

I've got 6 now (alas I'm not allowed to find and move my own, but it was so very tempting). Will grab a picture and rehide tomorrow.

C@W - don't feel you have to stick to "collecting" the Vic caches to distribute far and wide. Why not visit Sydney and pick up my cache for a visit somewhere

OK, I thought about grabbing C&C's on the way in this morning, but wasn't sure whether I might be stuffing up the game if I did. Maybe I'll grab it on the way home (if no-one else gets it) and drop it off somewhere tomorrow morning.

PS Unfortunately, Sydney's out of the question Blossom, so don't ask

and while you are out and about C@W why dont you take a quick detour down to Tassie and help mine along too .... after all you did start all this!

Not too late if I can get it online today? Haven't started to put it together yet but how hard could it be?
Won't be too hard to find a a spot either. Has to be 161 m from a GC or GCA cache I guess.

Today, tomorrow, whatever. You my be disadvantaged due to starting later, but go for it.Just mark the hidden date as 1/12/2009 and you're good to go.
The 161m rule does NOT apply. Hide wherever you want.

Okay it's in! Not far from home as you'd guess. At least the northern suburbs now has one so if anyone wants to drop by it's on the way north heading out of Sydney.

Nearly got GA1700!

Will these caches end up like trackables? You pick up one cache and drop it off where you find the next one? They're already in good hiding spots hopefully. Although it's more fun to look for new spots.
