Oh yeah!
But I did win a bet for a pizza 😆 as for how many pages this topic would get into………serial posters indeed ❗
This topic has even infiltrated the sanctuary of the OFF TOPIC forums…. as I am serenely watching 8) the walleyes swim in the Wolf River………
I would think people would be able to do something more constructive with their time like ➡ adding the new WGA logo to their cache pages. 😆 ………………………… and so it goes.

Well, I think we should
take a caching tour of ALR caches
while discussing the merits of the new WGA logo selection and
hopefully avoiding any bomb scaresOn the Left Side of the Road...04/07/2009 at 5:06 pm #1905173So how about a Liars cache?
Is requiring an embellished log for example still acceptable or is that considered an ALR?

My initial post that started this thread spelled out the acronym ALR… I guess I could have explained what they were better for the masses. My bad..
What’s an acronym?????

Yes, if it is REQUIRED. Optional is fine.

04/08/2009 at 1:14 am #1905177I just submitted 2 new “ALS” (Additional Logging Suggestion) caches for review. Much more fun than ALR. ALR is sooo 2008. ALS is the ALR for 2009. 🙂

No no! ALR = Additional Logging REQUEST. It’s like computers -cheeto-. We just rebrand the acronym.
On the Left Side of the Road...04/08/2009 at 1:40 am #1905179Can’t wait to see “Retro Cachers Wanted-ALR”! 😯
Be careful with the ALS think. That is the medical abbreviation for Lou Gehrig’s Disease, a terminal illness with no cure. 🙁
04/08/2009 at 2:04 am #1905180thinking about a cache that the finders are to post only
TFTC
on their log and deleting anything else by saying I don’t care how much fun you had, how long you searched, that you didn’t like the cache, if you left anything, took anything, whatever. (and no punctuation, emoticons, etc)
How can I word this so it doesn’t appear as an ALR? 😀

Heh, heh. Did one like that somewhere, I think Western Minnesota. Also did one that was Star Trek themed. Found logs could only say “Scotty, beam me up!” DNFs could only say “Captain, I cannot change the laws of physics”.
04/08/2009 at 2:12 am #1905182that’s too funny…

How about “This is an optional request, and to help you comply with this request, I will be so kind as to delete your log if it does not comply, generously providing you the opportunity to relog.”
Sieg Heil Groundspeak!

King Boreas has several ALRs where a specific log is required, including one for just TFTC. there are others such as “E.C. was here” and other arbitrary wordings of loggings.
