Re: The Moving Cache Race for 2010/2011

It has to be published ON 1-Dec-2010. So when you hide it use a date of 1-Dec-2010 and on your publish log use 1-Dec-2010. Then signup at http://www.cachinggames.com, enter your gnomish details and you're away. <OT> Shouldn't you be packing? How many gnomes can fit in 8 suitcases? :gnome :gnome :gn...

While Professor Facit had his disguise ready to go, he was unfortunately unable to escape in time today (he's too busy solving the mysteries of the Big Bang) Lucky for him, how would the receptionist handled another Dr G.

Re: The Moving Cache Race for 2010/2011

...make sure you look like a professor. How quickly can you grow a beard without a moustache? Can you sew some elbow patches on your jacket? I assume she thinks it's a box of books or exam papers! \:D/ :twisted: \:D/ Hmmm not sure about the beard and moustache.... here's a recent photo of me at wor...

Re: Cheap custom stamps - $4 shipped

My revised design arrived and I am pretty impressed for $4. Surprisingly, rather than bits being cut off I got an extra blob! I used an existing image which I arranged so only the elements I wanted appeared on the stamp but another part was in the shaded area on the design and was included on the st...

Re: The Moving Cache Race for 2010/2011

Just to be a bit picky but only three of the four colours are on the Gnome. Should the boots be orange now the GPSr is Yellow andthe bag is gone?

Re: Cheap custom stamps - $4 shipped

Received notification today that my order has been canceled :(, but impressively (for a very very cheap stamp) they canceled it because upon review they were concerned that my design would not work well as a stamp due to use of fine lettering. They have credited my artscow account with a full amount...

Re: Watching this new cache...

Take a look at google earth - is it on Private Property? I know this location well, it is private property AFAIK but is probably accessible 24x7 due to access into Kooyong Tennis club (behind gates and a fence). It is effectively on school grounds so is not necessarily a great location for finders....
