Sign me up too! (I'll be there to support my industrious clan though).

Also, is there a map with the colour shown to indicate which colour has control of areas? When you view the caches on a map there's a little box that appears in the top left. Select Show dragonZones and wait for the overlay to load (can take a while sometimes). Ergh, what am I doing here helping yo...

Cool, just over halfway to the 100. This may have to be my christmas holiday challenge.

How about putting the log and writing implement in a large plastic bag that when replaced into the container has enough volume that it won't get shoved in too far and the bag gives you something to grab onto to yank it out again.

And it's obvious the leading clans have kept their competitors lower to get the most points. Dont forget Strategy folks. I'm betting that competitor numbers are low initially because a) they've been waiting for the weekend to go out and cache, b) they're coming to grips with the game requirements o...

One of this week's scavenges is: Hide and publish a Locationless geocache, which is why it seems like there's more coming through than normal.

I wanted to make a couple of suggestions with regards to the menu options in the Cacher page and tidy up some of the options between my profile and my account. Is change in this area open for discussion? My first suggestion would be to unbury the draft/unpublished caches list. I will put forward a m...

You'd better not open the locationless can of worms then

Ok, ta.

I have a blank NSW Dashboard atm. I know it shouldn't be but can't work out what's happening with it. Any clues?

Apparently it is not a typo.

Avoid adding the image directly into the log so it displays. This is a very large bandwidth hog. Especially on a mobile device. I would hate to get to a cache page of a locationless cache and have to download 100x1MB files just to see the cache page. By all means link, or use the thumbnail, but con...
