Re: Longest without a find

Thanks C@W. I suspect I'm actually looking for the "Top Caches by Days Unloved", but Firefox doesn't seem to want to show the graph for me. Safari tells me that the image cannot be displayed because: "Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 16777216 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 552 bytes) in /var/...

Longest without a find

Hi all
Does anyone know how to get the GCA Queries feature to pump out a list of caches in descending order of the amount of days since the cache was last found? I'm sure I have seen this somewhere before, but I can't remember where!

A: Yes, when they bash their heads into things, it needs to be wide enough to accommodate the brain as it shifts from the head to the stomach.

Q: Do you prefer the Australian M series passport or the new N series passport?

Re: The Best/Easyest way to get Stats onto your Profile page

I seem to remember I had a map on my page of the countries and states that I had cached in, but it seems to have vanished... perhaps I was just dreaming. I'd be curious to find out as well (especially seeing GSAK doesn't run on Macs)

Re: Where I have Been, Where I am Going

Well today I am pleased to report that I went caching for the first time this year... and what an experience! First, I made an attempt on a cache just out of town, and ran into the cache owners (Team Blackie) who had just replaced the container! I was so amazed to come across another team in the fie...

Where I have Been, Where I am Going

Hey folks! As a couple of you have noticed, I have been very much AWOL this year... I haven't found a single cache and my appearances on the forums have been incredibly rare. I just wanted to give you an update on where I have been and where I am going to! This year I was lucky enough to have the op...

Re: Where to get film canisters?

They smell nicer, too :)

Unfortunately Eclipse containers are notoriously poor caches... they're not waterproof, and they're hard to get paper out of because of the little rim that runs around the inside.

I must admit that I have had a little bit of experience using eco-friendly pens (although I used a Pilot). I wrote three exams with them a few weeks ago, and noticed on the barrel it had written "Contains 100% Liquid Ink" For a roller ball pen, I thought, the fact that the ink is 100% liquid is a ra...

I also note the owners only have 19 finds. Makes me wonder how on earth NBN got in touch with them... or did they go to NBN?

I have to say I kinda agree with Webguy... not exactly subtle hunting!

Bit of a shame the cache was shown in full view... although no reported muggling as yet...
