There are only 4 of them (2 Reps and 2 Senators)! The rest are blow-ins!

Re: Report GCA Site issues here

What about using a separate file for each state?

Re: Report GCA Site issues here

Hi GCA admins, this is related to the picture I can generate: http://geocaching.com.au/cacher/danozz/plots/0010_finds.png?r=vic Are you able to zoom in a bit closer to Victoria? Or do you like it to be so far zoomed out. That's the best we can do with the original quality of file. If we zoom in mor...

Re: Report GCA Site issues here

Is it just me or has the font changed on the GCA home page? Looks a lot clearer/sharper. Or did I get new glasses??? If you followed us on Google+ you'd know :lol: (we do have a Facebook page that only gets updated semi annually, and doesn't really get site announcements placed on it :lol:). We've ...

Re: GeosportZ 2012 - Questions and Clarifications

A few memorable moments from our experience: [*] Making Mr Wibble swim in Westlakes on a frosty morning (5 degrees at the time), and nearly getting run over by some rowers who seemed to come out of nowhere [*]Being seen unloading a kayak from the car on the side of Main North Road, which must have ...

Re: Well this is getting trickier...

When I posted the original topic, I had 36 unfound non-moveable caches inside 30km Since then, I've found 124 inside 30km, and I still have 31 to go - it's like playing Whack-A-Mole! When you posted the original topic, I had 590 unfound caches inside 30km. Since then, I've found 239 inside 30km, bu...

Re: How many found in between home and your nearest unfound.

My nearest unfound is a mere 1.5km away (the rate of in-fill around here in the last 6 months is hard to believe). My number of finds in that radius (including archived etc) is 27. My nearest unfound is still 1.5km away. My numbers of finds in that radius is now 34. :shock: Note: these counts exclu...

Maybe not, but you've got the skills, maybe there is a local cacher with an iPhone you could collaborate with to develop an iOS version?

Re: BIT Caches (aka QR Code Caches)

We are open to any suggestions for different GPS based activities we can turn in to some kind of cache type. But QR codes arent a GPS based activity, its a smartphone based activity, isnt it? My Oregon isnt a cheap, low-end GPS, nor is it that old, but it cant scan barcodes. I agree with the last c...

Re: Ghosts of caches past on Nuvi maps

I have been getting my caches onto the Nuvi by exporting a GPX file from GSAK, then loading that using the Garmin POI loader. What appears to have been happening (and I stand to be corrected on this) is that the loader copies the file to the devices GPX folder and renames it POI.gpx. Each time a new...

Re: GeosportZ 2012 - Questions and Clarifications

If there are half a dozen teams who achieve the 350 total via all 30 events, the places are going to be on a countback. I expect everyone will have to log the marathon on the last day (is that right for the "date" we show on this one when we enter it to geosportz??) so the next highest score will b...

Re: GeosportZ 2012 - Questions and Clarifications

For 2707, would coordinates like S?? 27.??? E??? 07.??? be acceptable? The published co-ordinates contain 27 and 07 in order anywhere in the co-ordinate set to claim this requirement. So, yes, this one works. Oooh, I forgot about the coordinates option for this requirement. I was hanging out for a ...

Re: Ghosts of caches past on Nuvi maps

I had to go through and delete them from the internal memory manually. If I remember correctly, it is possible to select all then deselect whichever favourites/waypoints you want to keep - on my 1390T it's under Tools - My Data - Delete Favourite(s). It seems that unlike the handhelds which only ev...
