Well Rounded cachers

Post by Derringer » 28 October 08 9:26 pm

With the competition due to start soon, am wondering if any "Well rounded cachers" exist at present

Here is my profile - I don't even rate a 3/3

Anybody else like to show their profile?

You certainly do rate a 3/3, in fact you rate a 4/4. i.e. You have every combination of difficulty up to 3/3 and 4/4. To be a 5/5 will be a huge challenge.

I'm a 3/3 but no more. I'm 7 caches away from a possible 4/4. Given that the caches have to be found during the game period and it's taken me 4 years to get to this position, I doubt that the next 3 months will be much different.

Still have 1 cache to reach 3/3, 8 to reach 4/4, and far too many to reach 5/5. Hope to have a couple of the blanks filled in by this time next week though :twisted:

I thought it would be fun to look at our graph and was surprised to see that we are nearly a 3/3 only missing 2.

Was wondering why some graphs are different in the set out :?:
Looking forward to the game.

The coloured graph I produced was a result of a GSAK macro

Thanks for pointing out where these tables came from....i knew they must be some form of macro, just not what it was called. :roll: :D

Now if someone could point me towards the macro/webpage showing the list of caches that fulfil the empty boxes. 8)

note am I stating the obvious here:
with GSAK you can just open your filter with the selected terran/diff and therefor is shows all your eligible caches. (loaded via PQ)
you could probably write a macro to show all your remaining candidates but might be easier just doing a few searches at a time.

You can do all of this on GCA queries too and they will include GA caches as well as GC

Rules to Well Rounded Cacher
Is this a race? What happens if more than one cacher finishes. Will the winner be determined like in Geosportz? The higher the rating on the earlier date ...wins?????
i noticed that the person who finished first in 3/3 has been overtaken by someone who just finished!!!!

There is no ladder ranking as such.

It's a challenge against yourself. i.e. You get to be a Well Rounded Cacher (or if you're like me, you don't get the time to go caching) or not.

Everyone who achieves the ranking of "Well Rounded Cacher" will receive a "token" prize, so there is no need to be first or fastest or anything other than the challenge against yourself.

The names that appear on the ladder are random when you get the same score.

BTW- just out of curiosity, to cachers in other states...... has anyone actually found a cache in all 81 categories in their state? Because in NSW some don't exist????
