Your GMAIL account is rejecting the email. We're sending it, they're rejecting it. I don't know whether this is something we can address but I'll let CraigRat know.

Thanks for checking. I did get the daily email and notification of this post, so thought you must have tweaked something.

Seems back to normal as receiving moves' emails. Thanks

I'm on gmail as well, and noticed after whitewebbs post that I seem to have missed a couple of days. But back to normal this morning.

So maybe a generic gmail issue.

I'm finding the site is very slow at the moment and am wondering if others are having the same trouble
Is there anything I can do to improve my performance on the site at my end of the process?
Cheers OldSaint

It has been slow for the last couple of days for us. Talking to several cachers earlier today and they all have the same problem. Only happening with the GCA site.

Agree Cheers

All back to normal speed this morning - Thanks

That's good About to try it
Thanks GCA
Cheers OldSaint

Great, the faeries must be pedalling faster, back to normal. Thanks

Hi all,

I'm unable to log in, I put in my username and password and then it returns to the landing page but I'm not logged in. Also, when I use the GA Cacher Android app it gets an error "cannot downlload cache data".

Does anyone else have the same issue?

*** EDIT ***
That was weird. After logging in here and posting, I went and tried again and I logged in! Bizarre

Haha. I couldn't get into the forum to ask or see what was up for those few days. Had to keep refreshing most of the day/s to get the dZ to work for my points. Haha.

Glad it's back to normal. Thank you.

I believe there is an issue when publishing new caches. The terrain rate and difficulty rate reverts to 1/1 and takes a few edits to get it to accept the d/t you want. It also happens when you edit an old cache, the d/t reverts to 1/1.

Thanks for the report. This should now be fixed.

I published one about 4.30pm on Sunday and and the D/T were set where I wanted them 2/3.5 (using the slider) but I received an error message in both fields 'Difficulty should be in the range 1-5'. The only way I could save it was to change the D/T to 1/1, then come back and correct it. No big drama now I know how to work around it, but I have seen a lot of caches published (unknowingly??) as 1/1 recently.

Looks like the ghost caches have moved from Stonnington to Hobsons Bay. Twelve Minotaur controlled caches showing up again here https://geocaching.com.au/zone/view/2110, but only one here https://geocaching.com.au/zone/caches/2110/gca?

Spooky!
