On page 10 of the groundspeak forum thread regarding challenges I came across an interesting counter-argument to those who don’t want these “counting” towards their find counts.
The prior virtuals, events, mega events, CITO events, webcams, GPS adventure exhibits, (and I would add Earth Caches) are also not geocaches (i.e. not containers hidden at coordinates to be found with a GPS and a log signed). Why should they count and these new ‘challenges’ should not?
Just an interesting perspective thrown in the mix.
They’re obviously not ideally developed but there’s some potential to testing out the “peer review model” behind these.
They really should be “owned” and have attributes, additional waypoints, hints, etc like a “real cache page”.
