Creative talent is good! So when's she defecting to Phoenix?

Would be a bit unfair to abandon the ship at this point I think..... she's going to be annoyed enough with me when she finds out we're heading out for a run tomorrow while she's at school.

Just wrested Manly from the Blues ...at least until Tyreless starts picking up my moveables!

Hmmm, delayed logging brings a whole new twist to the game. Ninja wolf may be annoyed but she's managed to borrow several zones from Phoenix. Are you sure she wants to continue grazing with the herd, rather than flying with the Phoenix's? I can't see a wolf and a cow being comfortable cache mates and just think how much more interesting family caching trips would be if you were in two clans...

As long as it remains fun and positive to read what the other clans are up to....

I'll confess. I read your posts. Then again, you read ours (you verdant-tinted swine). The blue response will come at a time of our choosing.

PS. Big ups to C@W for creating all this.

Well as long as she signed those logs within the dragonzone game time it's all good.... as for your second suggestion, when is Friesianess planning to change teams then?

Not a chance, she's way sneakier than me. Fortunately, I have the driving licence!

I've been considering the strategic possibilities of post dated logging and whilst there's considerable potential, I think we'll stick to logging on or about the date of find. It's not a high moral ground issue or anything like that, others can do as they choose with no comment from me. It's more a case of what the game becomes if played that way. It would be fairly easy to get busy and clock up a heap of finds, but not log them. One could then sit back and deploy those finds as and when they are needed. This would turn a caching game into a computer game, with the main activity happening in front of the screen. This happens to some extent anyway, with the seven days to allocate points, but once the seven days are up, you have to go and find/hide something.
Our involvement in the game is going to be spasmodic, as available time is limited (hence the defection from Griffin, we didn't want to be the sole defenders) and it's quite nice that a flurry of activity is followed by a maximum of seven days machinations and then we either walk away for a while, or get out and do some more caching.

Melbourne is greener today. Ah, the satisfaction of a job well done!

Enjoy it while it lasts.

We will! The duration will depend whether there are any Victorian Phoenix's willing to mount a defence....

Tyreless has just cleaned out my movables from the North shore... now the waiting game is to see where they end up!

Melbourne is obviously a desirable place to be, now it's turned green. Moveables are flocking there. I wonder if they'll stay when it all goes blue again?

Congratulations . Job well done! Obviously the Victorian Phoenix's are stuck at the ash stage but hopefully they'll recover their plumage sometime soon and take Melbourne back to a more pleasing colour .
