4 years ago during the same game, I found a cache (well I had a cache handed to me) that met one of the requirements that will be the same as this year. The further south you go, the more you are going to hate me. A certain Tasmanian (now) will know what I'm talking about.
Bwahahahahahaha.
Even though I am now souther than most, I actually don't hate you! Tee hee.

Any more hints?
Geocaches you claim for the game must be found or hidden during the game period. ie. You cannot claim requirements where you found the geocache prior to the game commencement or after the game conclusion.
Each requirement must be claimed against a geocache previously unfound by you. ie. You cannot revisit a geocache you have already found to claim a requirement, unless the requirement specifically states an exception.
Each requirement must be claimed against a different geocache. ie. You cannot claim more than one requirement per geocache.

Another hint?
Do you live in Zytheran land? You are probably going to hate me as well. Especially if your closest unfound cache is one of his. Pray to the caching gods that someone in the next week hides one closer to your home location.

That event on July 1st is sooooooo close to been my closest!!! Beaten by that multi that finishes in Canberra, the one that finishes in Melbourne and the one that you need a kayak for...
But on the other hand if 'home' is back on yorkes then the nearest in a traditional... (nano on a cannon I think)
There wouldn't happen to be a requirement to find 10+ cache types in one day on day 1 would there...

Well I like this hint. I might have to convince someone to hide a nice simple cache very close to my "home".

Not different types, no. I wonder what period they would need to be achieved over? Hmmm

Well maybe. But if you don't live very close to some of the less common cache types, 2 days might be a big ask. And anyway, I don't like the sound of this idea
At all

Ooh - I better leave the one near me for a while longer in that case!
It might be the only one I get... Sports and me don't mix - except GCing of course...

Oh, dear, how evil should I be? There might be a get out of jail free card on this one.

How big is a handball?
Jelly or mud; your choice.
How long do the real games run for and do you have enough petrol in your car?
Love all.

For requirement 30 there is probably one one geocacher who will know how to meet the requirement immediately. The rest of you will probably need to find out who that is and offer a non-trivial bribe. It may be worth getting onto the fact finding sooner rather than later.
Oh good, that helps.
I'll get right on to the fact finding tonight. Which facts do you reckon I ought to look into first?
There is a member in the game who you can probably ask to help with working this one out. I mean geofamily members should know, shouldn't they?
