Post by Biggles Bear » 03 October 04 6:06 pm

Just out of curiosity how are the stats displayed on the Geocaching.com.au page collected?

They dip a stick with honey on it into the webpage and collect them :P

You sure they use honey? Those dots are green.

Maybe it's guacamole?

if the stats are incorrect then please let us know which one are off so we can try to fix them
we can update your stats with a GSAK gpx file of your finds if you wish

Stats can be confusing, :?

We have found 611, my page shows only 259!!! :o

Likewise - Hit List shows 50 caches nearby not found by us.
Of the 50 on the list only 15 are actually not found yet. :?

There seem to be no finds recorded for us prior to 2002.
Is this a system limitation???

Cheers

yes, we only have rough info. if you want all your finds loaded you can use the import wizard on the "my" page or you can email us a gsak gpx of your finds and we'll import them for you
