Ah! I think I see the light. My posts were not going through because of the reply traffic
. Well I was there at the required time, My entry read something like ...

It's positive in so many ways, the new places, the views, the hunt, the exercise (especially the hill caches) meeting other cachers, the puzzles are great too. What more could you ask.

Coords S35 24.600 E149 06.566 (I leave it up to fate to decide whether to delete my find or not :)

I'm sure I've already posted, but now I can't find it =o(

My most positive experience was my first 1, taking 2 lunch breaks to work out the puzzle and find the cache. It was awesome!

Also finding amazing places in my 'backyard' places I'd never consider visiting.

Mostpositive thing about caching is contacting and being contacted by cachers from all points of the earth :) :) My daughter loves to get the logs of her TB's in England, America and the Chech Republic. She said she loves meeting all the other kids at events. :lol: :lol: :lol:

Our most positive caching experience would be completing a couple of big series caches in SA. The Onkaparinga series which had it all, and the Mount Lofty Peak series which had an evil twist at the end.
Oh, and running into maccamob in the main street of Kadina on Friday night.
Hope this post goes through.

Wow that was super intense, Thanks everyone for your great posts, I have not managed to read them all yet as they were coming in too fast. Good try GhostGums but your first post was off topic so the FTF goes to Camstal well done I be in contact over the next day or so once we have done the draw for the other coins. Well I think the record is truly broken at 123 users on line, I hope all went well with the servers :lol: :lol:

How did the server cope?
Did it get hammered or did it cope well with the load?

It didn't flinch.

We did hit the max_connections limit on the web server, but it didn't affect performance.

I hope you guys got some good data out of it, It blew me away with the numbers, I was not expecting that bigger turn out.
