    I need some help here. I am reading this board and I just cant figure out all the abbreviations that are used. I figured out TFTC= Terrific Find Terrific Cache and TNLN= Took Nothing Left Nothing. But I have seen others out there that I just can’t figure out. Now of course I don’t have a list of the ones I can’t figure out so if you all would help me by just listing the abbreviations that you all use, and what they mean I would appreciate it.

    I do a variation on this: T4TC!

    I seem to remember acronyms being listed somewhere on some webpage, but I can’t find it right now. So let’s see…

    FTF = first to find
    DNF = did not find
    CITO = cache in trash out
    TB = travel bug (of course)

    I’m sure there are others I’m forgetting…

    OK, here are some links:

    Geolex

    Geo-neologisms

    and of course, the GC.com glossary.

    Now I have one… I’ve noticed JLTC in logs lately. I can think of possible translations, but I’m wondering what the correct one is.

    Thanks, Ootek

    JLTC … beats me … maybe Junk Left, Took Cache … maybe it’s how mugglers log in?!?!?

    Gonna’ have to guess Just Love This Cache. On a side note, I wish there was a clever abbreviation for “I would never have seen this without geocaching”.

    How about WOW!!

    I think we put that in a lot of logs already.
