I must admit i've never quite got around to listening to this before but I found time this morning! Good work - very enjoyable!

I found the concept of the caching tree quite interesting - I wonder how it will go...

Thanks Spindoc Bob!

GCA has had a Genealogy tree for AGES :lol:

On a cacher page under 'Details' click on Genealogy and you get their tree if they have filled in their details in their settings.

Heres a good example: http://geocaching.com.au/cacher/Cached/genealogy
[EDIT:]
It is basically IMPOSSIBLE to do a full tree/branch scenario as most players enter the game on unconnected paths and may only actually introduce one or two people to the game. You couldn't build a full chart of relationships as they dont exist.

I've done a detailed map of cacher relationships as a trial (who cachers have 'met' based no finding the same caches on the same day) and it gives a better idea of relationships between cacher groups than how a 'Family Tree' can. A Family tree is only good for Heirachical relationships over multiple generations

Heres one:

This is all the people who have 'met' me more than once, and all the people THEY have met (more than once) :lol:


Good ep as always Darren, Geotalk is one of the podcasts I really look foprward to!

Great Show Spindoc! (Except for that one doofus who first misquote the number of days for his own finds then didnt double-check the GCA stats for the fastest 0-1000 ;) haha
