Re: Cache difficulty/terrain ratings
The problem is that the whole system is inconsistent. In this thread is a discussion whether a certain cache should be a 5/5: http://forum.geocaching.com.au/viewtopic.php?f=11&t=15851&start=15 The following items aren't considered "special equipment" and therefore don't lead to a Terrain 5 rating: -...

Re: A motto to follow when placing caches
I for one have given out many favourite points to caches that in themselves are ordinary, below ordinary and even quite crap! But I had a great time at them, and therefore deemed them favourite worthy. Well I don't do that. If the cache itself isn't above and beyond it doesn't get a point or a star...

Although I agree to that it looks that at the moment 63% of the cachers who voted don't.Sky Dog wrote:He is trying to make what was going to be a "good" cache into an "outstanding" cache.
Isn't that what we should all aspire to?

Re: 8 x Eneloop batteries $19.99
I wear walking shoes out in less than 12 months so placed an order. WOW :shock: I think I am the other extrem. I bought my mountain boots in 1998. I had to refurbish them twice but that's it (It's 90 EUR but given that it is a 500 EUR pair and afterwards you got brand-new-worn-in-boots it's a good ...

Re: A motto to follow when placing caches
If GC had gold, silver & bronze stars then favouriting would have more meaning. You can always use GCVote http://gcvote.com/index_en.php [...] This scenario is known as a causality dilemma.

Re: Voting at GC Forum -- Counting Challenges as Finds
awesome - now that they've disconnected it I'm going back to my normal avatar Doesn't change that the implementation for challenges is still very bad but now I don't care anymore.

Re: ethos for replacing logbooks, containers?

Re: Now I know where philipp gets his ideas from.
Well I make up the ideas myself - this is the very first hardcore cache in Germany ... guess who placed it. http://coord.info/GCJE3Y It's more like I got copied in the past 8 years (which I don't mind at all). For the crawling part this one is more like it: http://coord.info/GCW8A0 (placed it in 200...

Re: ethos for replacing logbooks, containers?
I consider replacing a cache before contacting the owner to be very rude. How should I know it's really gone? Replacing missing or broken parts (logbook or the container) is acceptable as long there is still a part left which can be identified as the cache.
