We haven't changed any of our queries but when I ran the Tas moveables TBF I got a list of all moveable caches in Tasmania not just the ones we hadn't found. The Caches we haven't found is ticked. Also when I tried the Locationless TBF query nothing appeared - there should be a page and a half. Again nothing seems to have changed when I checked the query set up page.
What is the query number or name and I'll check it out.

Actually I have found a bug in the map and query. It should be working for you now. If not, please let me know.

That's fixed the problem for me. My queries also started way out in the never never, despite having home coordinates set. I always thought that that was just the way it was.

Another question on queries.

I noticed that if I just select 'I have found' with nothing else I get a count of 0 but if I just enter 'Chwiliwr' in 'found by' and nothing else I get a count of 659.

Is this a bug in the query stuff or am I missing something? (Test1 8472 and Test2 8473)

There is something weird with http://geocaching.com.au/cache/ga3042 which may be an owner problem. Listed as a Trad with coords placed with the Published log, but at the same time it is marked locationless/locationless/locationless. Which may be why it has been unfound for 6 years. I suspect I should log an NA if the CO doesn't respond to my note. Or can a faerie update the coords and listing type?

Google search gave me this:
GA3042 - Bogong Copper Mine (Stinking Creek Mine) by ian ...
geocaching.com.au/cache/ga3042
Jan 12, 2011 - It is best to pak at Rock Flat camping ground (S35 24.013 E148 25.944) then walk North, back towards ... When you see the hay shed follow the fence line to the river (S35 23.607 E148 25.519). ... S35° 24.189' E148° 24.287' ...

Most likely an oversight in the listing not showing the actual coords.

It's been disabled. If after 90 days nothing happens, the faeries will archive it.

When entering a new log with a hint and experiencing invalid coordinates, the hint doesn't get automatically filled in again.

Yes, unless it's a moveable cache. You cannot update the hints on a moveable cache by editing the cache, you MUST do it by log only. If you can tell me which cache you are having problems with I can look into it. Your question is very general and I can't really solve a specific issue without specific details, thanks.

Yes it was a movable cache, thanks.
perhaps a message to this effect would be useful

At http://geocaching.com.au/stats/range/ it says that the range of NSW from 18-May-2000 to 27-Sep-2005 contains 500 caches.

According to the query I made for that (http://geocaching.com.au/my/query/count/8499) there are 527 in it.


Also, is it possible to have the range with GCA numbers only?
