Extending dZ to NZ
Posted: 28 June 16 9:17 am
There is a suggestion that we extend the dZ game to NZ to cater for our cousins across the ditch or expat Aussies who still want to play at GCA.
NZ has very, very few Geocaching Australia geocaches. Probably because we're called Geocaching AUSTRALIA and not Geocaching Oceania
http://geocaching.com.au/caches/available/gca/nz/ni/
http://geocaching.com.au/caches/available/gca/nz/si/
Mainly TP's with a few virtuals and the rare traditional.
Is it worth the effort (to hide, find, extend the game) across the ditch? Apparently we would need to rename "State Control" to something as NZ does not politically separate NI from SI. i.e. NZ is not a federated country like Australia. Small point, but we need to think about social acceptability.
With the very few caches there listed at this site, could we bulk list TP's to get a head start? They are not yet popular in NZ, but as in Aus, they might be if they were listed. i.e. http://geocaching.com.au/stats/graphs/g ... trigpoints a steady find rate since they were introduced in 2009 en masse.
Any thoughts? Concerns? Issues? Questions? Worthy? Not Worthy? Stupid? Cool?
