Freddo wrote: 2. I wondered if there might be an opportunity to see who are the least honest cachers in the country. That would be the cachers with the lowest DNF to Find ratio. Probably only worth doing for cachers with say more than 100 finds.
Of course they could be very good at finding caches :roll:

Re: Request to Archive a Cache

I am arguably (definitely?) one of the visitors who precipitated the archiving of the original cache (due to the manner in which we approached the cache).

Re: A great log from a fun little Adelaide cache

That's hilarious. Nice log.

More seriously, it goes to show that some information on the container (and the GC code) can help prevent caches from being muggled.

Re: iPhone Apps

I thought I'd post another positive experience about the Geosphere app. I uploaded a 14 mB GSAK file via Box.net without any problems. We found 25 caches yesterday in areas with patchy (and no) phone reception. The Geosphere app handled beautifully and wasn't the slowest link in the get-out-of-the-c...

What -- in his chest? (My favourite response to that statement :lol:)

For some reason, when I read the cache page, I thought about crepes. Mmmm ... crepes.

Re: *** New Site Testing - We need your help ***

It would seem that sometimes the "View New Posts" link works and at other times it does not. Quite often when I select this link I get a no result found, but If I got to the Board Index I find multipule orange dots indicating new posts that I have not read. This morning for example, I had a couple ...

Re: iPhone Apps

The off-topic part is asking for advice or recommendations from existing iPhone users on other apps that they have found amusing/useful/good value. Not necessarily caching related. 8) The non-installed apps that I use most often are: NetNewsWire - free - RSS reader. Syncs with NewsGator to stay cur...
