Re: Should Archived Caches Count in dragonZone?
Am I correct in thinking allocated points to a cache are viable only for a predicted time and age off/out. If so then an archived cache is no problem as once the time limit is reached there would be no points left on it meaning no clan owns it or all clans have joint ownership at zero points each Wo...

Re: So where/how do you draw the line re safety?
I think it is knowing about one's own limitations and being sensible. For example if out in the bush letting someone know where you expect to be, if the terrain is an issue travel with a friend(s) so help can be sought if needed. I am a stroke survivor and take a wonderful drug called warfarin (affe...

Re: Cache found longest distance from coords
I had a FTF that was 228mtrs from where it was listed. Found due to cache description and hint. Initial position on the map was in private property.

Re: Report GCA Site issues here
What happened to the 'update' link next to the awarded section when looking at your dragon zone trophies?
It is not only me as I have been talking with another (celtical) who also confirmed they are missing it and it is known they have awards to collect
