Geocaching Australia

Is it just me, or have there been big problems with their website the last few days ? I haven't tried to capture or deploy, but the site and forums have been on and off the air with varios serious database-looking erors.

Do you possibly have a link for all of us to watch?

You could try iView

Why not make the pieces Bingo-themed, even if only vaguely ? You could have ducks, legs, fat ladies,and so on. I am sure most of the ingenious folks hereabouts could beg, borrow or steal..heck, even make or buy if necessary, something that could somehow be connected with a bingo call.

Hmm...I wonder if "Oh, I need to go up and replace a broken plastic box with an ammo can" would be sufficient excuse for the boss (and the REAL boss SWMBO)..

Looks like there are even caching events in Bendigo and Ballarat that day..plenty of opportunity there to meet up with fellow cachers

The 18th is International Geocaching day too

I think Munzees are great, and believe they are the natural successor to all nano and most urban micro-caches. I agree finding a dozen around a shopping centre car park is a bit pointless, but there are plenty of caches like that too, and the points element on Munzees adds to the interest which isn...

I've deployed 7 so far and haven't really had any issues at all (other than me not knowing how to drive the website), some have even been off-line deployments which did their thing once we got back into phone coverage. As with caching, I have found it is worth firing up the Munzee app on the phone a...

Well, it seems someone has poked a bit of wire up the pipe and jiggled it about a little, a few messages are slowly trickling out now.

The status page lists the service as "impaired". I guess that's an accurate description, as I am getting a few messages, but nowhere near what I expect..I was thinking yesterday seemed a bit quiet around the watchlist

Bad Bad Bad! Imagine if it became common and known - caches would never be safe from muggles! I agree. I always take any money I find in a cache for the same reason. Either leave a swap or leave nothing but your signature I think You could leave a trackable too. :) But yeah, current legal Australia...

Over here in Ireland we have "Challenge" Caches... I like them, and am well on my way on most of them... Some Ideas perhaps? The Irish Top 10 Challenge --> By State Doable? The Irish County Challenge --> By State? The North-West Challenge --> Ummm... this would be tough back home haha The Fizzy Cha...

They do sometimes have a happy ending... One of mine, the RedHat Cache Surfer ( http://coord.info/TB2RF00 ) turned up in South Africa nearly 9 months after being picked up. It had been somewhat abused, but an emergency care-pack sent from home has got it back on track ! =D> =D> \:D/ \:D/ On the othe...
