I'm yet to get a FTF. I guess I just don't try hard enough. :)

At GCA you mark your find as a FTF and that's what is used to o the counting.

http://geocaching.com.au/cacher/statist ... te63/finds
You have 1 FTF marked.

To mark a cache FTF, go to the cache page:
EXAMPLE ONLY:
http://geocaching.com.au/cache/gcy10j
Over on the right hand side, click First to Find

OR

In your log when you make it at GC, include *FTF* (with the *) in your log. As part of the daily feed a FTF will be logged against your count.

OR

If you have HUNDREDS to mark at once:

http://wiki.geocaching.com.au/wiki/Impo ... to_Find.29

Enjoy.

Use the bulk imported in the last link.
You should be able to export a list from GSAK if you mark your caches as FTF in GSAK that is.

With all this talk of FTF's I would like to mention a little gripe I have in relation to logs for FTF's. Surely, the finder can make an effort to write something which is a little more than a generic cut and paste? Brag about the FTF, tell us about the journey made, share the passion that drives you to beat everyone else.

Some of the FTF logs are getting as predictable as whose name will be in that FTF spot when a cache is published!
