So now it's been archived to maintain its winning DNF/Found ratio eh? :mrgreen:

OK, I have archived "COME IN SUCKER".
I have explained my reasons in the log (mainly environmental)

.....but do not fear, "LIT'L SUCKER" by iTreasureHunt2 will knock the socks off all the other suckers.

Just because you have found "COME IN SUCKER" and/or "THE EASTERN SUCKER" does not mean you will be able to find LIT'L SUCKER.
I am very confident even Yurt will not be able to find it.
In time LIT'L SUCKER will need to be verified by an adjudicator because nobody will find it.
I might have to increase iTreasureHunt2's pocket money so he can afford to offer a FTF prize of "Coffee and Cake for two" at the cafe across the river from LIT'L SUCKER. From a distance you can sip coffee and watch other cachers going endlessly up and down the steps.

Happy caching.

And it looks like I finally have to go back to Murdoch Uni this week, was hoping I could have found it (as I can't find the Sydney equivalent!). Bad timing once again.

Finally it (LIT'L SUCKER) has truly been found!

http://coord.info/GC2FP43

I saw the logs this morning and looking at the number of finds by the finders I assumed it would be yet another decoy cache. However tonight the CO has acknowledged this is the real deal at last some two years after being placed. Not that many DNFs though considering, many, many must not have been logged.
Well done to the finders.


After the fall of Bifrost that leaves the two impossible AussieCacher hides in Sydney unfound still. These two are 'only' up to 10 months though without a find! Don't know if there are others still unfound in urban areas in Australia like these.

Bifrost has a did not find/found ratio of 55/1, Lit'l Sucker is 42/1. Of cause The Pergola, and The Echelon Project are at 43/0, 34/0 respectively. Others?

You are assuming that every DNF has been recorded [-X

I don't have ESP, only what is written on the log page. One might assume that unlogged dnfs are similar on most caches.

Looks like the final chapter for L'IL SUCKER has been written.
==================
Log Date: 8/15/2013
This cache is archived for the following reasons with the first being the most important.

The guidelines clearly state "geocache placements do not damage, deface or destroy public or private property". This is in hiding the cache and, more importantly for this cache, searching for the cache.

The structure that this cache is in or near is being, little by little, slowly made unsafe for the general public to use. Cachers have removed and loosened bolts holding the steps to the structure and have made a number unsafe. Also beside the structure the stones that were placed to stop erosion on the embankment are being moved and not placed back which may actually cause the erosion that they were put in place to stop.

Secondly the nature of the hide is undertermined and the CO and his father are unwilling to allow me to determine if this cache abides by the guidelines even after advising them that not to allow me to see the cache placement will force me to assume that it does not comply.

Finally this cache is going to be locked to stop it being used as a forum. If you wish to comment on the archive of this cache use the appropriate forums.

Yes I saw that log. Never had a chance to look for that one but it didn't sound like fun to me.
