Online Logging a few days after the find

The Red Devils · Post by **The Red Devils** » 02 August 07 10:28 pm

Hi,

If you are away from home for a few days, or even weeks caching, and dont have access to the internet to do your logging what is the correct way to complete all your logs on returning home?

I see that you can change the date when logging your visit, and i realise therfore that you can put the actual find date against any log online. Can anyone tell me if your log "slots" into order if say, there have been several further find/logs since your actual visit. Or should we put "todays" date even if it was actually found say..a few days/weeks earlier.

Sorry if it sounds like a stupid question..still quite new to this and still learning..

Log it for the date of your find as the system will then place the finds in the right order (except for finds on the same day)

Hi Red Devils

Yes, log your visit with the actual date you found the cache - as far as I am aware, your log will be slotted into the correct place - ie in date order.

They will "slot" into date order. I have hundreds of finds that I havent had time to log, and when I get around to it every now and again, they go back to the date I log the find as..

*Bring on the non logging wowsers, I got the piggy flame suit on* Yeehaa..

yep.. the point.

When youv'e been on hols and have to go back to work the next day, the prospect of logging sometimes does not do it for you.....

..now where did I put my Canberra notes...... hehe

We sometimes play with the local Pirates mind

and don't log an FTF straight away. He then sneeks out thinking he has got another FTF but

NOT TO BE. I know that this will ruffle the GEOPOLICE's

feathers but so be it. It is good fun

- you should try it.

We have one going at the moment. We found the cache on Monday and he has since logged a DNF because he couldn't work out the tricky maths problem that our 6 and 9 year olds solved

. We still got him out there looking though.

It makes it rather difficult to log when you find a cache the day before it is published..<br>...had been placed and the owner had not got home to activate the listing Neptune Log Entry
