Fundamental Caching Laws of Nature

[TeamAstro]

We all have certain rules of thumb in life. Caching is no different. I've called these "Fundamental Caching Laws of Nature", but they could be equally your everyday rules of thumb of caching.

Here are mine:

1. Don’t get too upset if you can’t find the cache if you are under pressure and in a rush. (still log a no find though – if I know I am in so much of a rush, I may refrain from looking even if it’s a drive by). Rushing never assists and normally results in a Bloke’s Look.

2. The Astro rating on a cache always increases by at least 1 (in D and T) at night.

3. Hint details required are inversely proportional to your search time. (ie it's nice to have more hints if you have less time)

Simple rules but I think they are “Fundamental Caching Laws Of NatureÂâ€

1. Don't cache if you are in a hurry to be somewhere else
2. Don't ever commit yourself to a finishing time to your regular caching partners partner....
3. Don't go caching with Aloysius7....he's cursed

[Papa Bear_Left]

The phrase "should be easy to find" or similar in the cache description means that we're only going to find it after a long or repeated search, if at all.

"It won't be possible to complete this in one trip", however, makes a smiley all but guaranteed within the hour!

Swampgecko's rules of Caching - Rule #36 If there are two ways into a cache, Swampgecko will take the hard way.

Rule 39 The piece of information Needed to finish a multi is on the table at home. And you have no phone service with in a 2 klm walk.

The cache is normaly found in the last place you look.

The pot is always blacker on the outside,
Leaves are better on the second infusion,
Brown sugar allows the taste of teas to strengthen more,
Milk must always go in at he very last,
Bags should always be unbleached,
Tapered cups rip you off,
Wax paper cups are better than unwaxed cups.

Did I do good master?

The cache is normaly found in the last place you look.

If it was in the first place you look it will still be the last place you look, unless you are a moron and keep looking after you find it.

[TeamAstro]

Wild animals lessen your chance of a find.

Like a donkey. Heee Horrr.

clear skies, Astro.

#666 When you most need a hint, you'll decode the hint and find it says something like "May add a hint sometime"...

Eric's corollary: The tree that the cache is in will be invisible at night.

#5 The tree limb that you hide the cache in, on top of a mountain, to teach people to "notice out of the ordinary" or not natural things, get burnt beyond crisp in the first bushfires in decades....
Didn't find any remains, not even the lead from the pencil!
