New feature - Neighbours [closed]

Mind Socket · Post by **Mind Socket** » 26 May 06 12:27 pm

Ever wanted to <strike>stalk</strike> meet somebody new, but couldn't be bothered going all the way across town? Now you can find out who your neighbours are, right here on GCA!
<p>
Anywhere you see a cacher sidebar, there is an extra link, next to mates.
<p>
<a href="http://geocaching.com.au/search/?nn=Mind+Socket">Check it out!</a>
<p>For info about how this works, have a peek at the <a href="http://wiki.geocaching.com.au/wiki/Neighbours">wiki</a>.

I should have mentioned, there's a 25km limit, so finding out you have no neighbours might not be fun.

could be worse, it could say that you dont have any friends or something

I think the mates page will do that (if you're a "known cacher")

Interesting....it seems to think I live in Molesworth

and my nearest neighbour is Derringer (7km away) in Cathkin

Except I live in Benalla (75km from Molesworth), and Derringer lives in Seymour (38km from Cathkin)

at least your clost to where you live, the system some how had me in a completly different state.

I checked my home co-ords and they werent even close to what they should be, so i reckon i must have had a couple of drinks last time i updated themm, and 3's turned into 8's, etc

I've just adjusted my home coordinates too...they were miles out...I don't think it's the alcohol

We have no mates and no neighbours

You may have neighbours but they haven't added in their co-ords.
Keep on caching, you'll collect some mates sooner or later.

Event caches are perfect for getting mates.
