      I’m looking at a cache that has not been found since April 22. That should make it eligible for the Nov-Dec LCG, right? So what if I log it as a find today, Nov. 1, before the new list comes out? Will that bump it from the list? I’m going after it right after work, which is in 7 minutes.

      All opinions, comments, and useless drivel I post are mine alone and do not reflect the opinions of the WGA BOD.

        It should be OK, since you have 7 days to file the LCG submission for verification. As long as it shows up on the list, which should be out any second, hopefuly! 😉

        My experience from back on the day that I used to be a bit more active in the game is that Team Deejay filters his queries by caches that have not been found by the day the cycle starts so you will be fine.

        Ditto the comments. It’ll be fine if it’s on the list. Keep in mind that there are over 500 eligible caches each month and the list gets limited to 500. I’ve tried “sandbagging” in the past only to discover that many of the puzzle solves I had don’t make the list. It’s not an exact science so just bear with it whether it’s on the list or not. In any event you get another smiley.
