At first glance, this seems poor. It will be interesting to see how this concept evolves. It appears that the challenges will not be counted as “finds”.

Do Challenges increase my Geocaching.com find count?

Yes. Challenge completions and geocache finds are combined in your total stats count. However, you can hover over anyone’s count to see how many caches and challenges the user has found and completed.

Is for the one in Wausau.

If I got it right, you can challenge almost anything (fellow cachers can flag the challenge and too many flags = deletion of challenge) and completed challenges counts as a find but making a challenge does not count as a hide.

Following the signals from space.

That How I took it. “GO punch your boss in the nose” would be a challange and I fell VG would be all over it!

This makes me sad. Numbers are truly more pointless then ever.

So… what’s the proof that you actually did the task requested?

Do challenges have FTF honors?

Maybe I’m the only one confused, but how do these challenges relate to geocaching?

Great Question. I was thinking at the minimum a challenge should at least require a person to go to a location.
