well..can’t get to gc to check your id so it’ll have to wait a bit yet…

It’s in the cedar tree.

Dude,

Just be patient.

I’ve had caches not get found for over a week. There’s one of mine (GC1YZGG) that was not found for three weeks after placement, I think and still has that one find on it since placement and that was in the fall.

In the winter, geocaching activity is way down, even for winter friendly caches. So what if no one finds it right away. Eventually they will.

Disabled listing. Glad the 2 days spent creating a cache didnt go to waste. 🙁

I’ll go out there tomorrow and remove the cache container.

Why would you archive a listing because a hint was posted to forums unassociated with your cache page?

Do you believe that a high percentage of your intended caching “audience” for that cache even read these forums? Don’t think so.

While it is considered bad form to post hints to caches anywhere online it’s not the end of the world.

If you think this is bad, wait until new (or even veteran) cachers post hints directly to your caches. As a cache owner you will need to be prepared for this situation and how to handle it politely. I guarantee you it will happen.

I would not worry about a post on these forums at all. Like I said, most won’t even know this forum thread exists…

There is a rule about cache permanence. If you publish a cache, you intend to keep it going. Rather than archive it why not just leave it active and see what the first few logs look like??
