Sometimes I want to know if a cache exists in Wisconsin that has a certain name or certain words in that name. I know how to get Wisconsin caches, and I know how to get caches with certain words in their names. Both give way too many returns.
Is there a way that I can search for caches in Wisconsin only with a certain word in the name? (kind of like “and” instead of “or”)
Example: caches in Wisconsin only with the word “woods” in the cache name
Example: caches in Wisconsin only with the name “Park and Grab”(Disclaimer: The examples are not ones I’m really looking for.)
11/29/2011 at 2:59 am #1954736I am doubtful that GC.com search engine can do much at all other than give you all the caches that have a particular word in the title. Searching for other players doesn’t give you any returns unless you get the name exactly as it is, including upper/lower case and punctuation… what kind of search is that??? if I knew the user name exactly, I wouldn’t be searching, would I?
Sorry for ranting and getting slightly off topic…

11/29/2011 at 3:32 am #1954737if you have a database of all the caches in wisconsin, you could easily find this using GSAK, the only cacher that I know that has that kind of database would be Team Black Cat.
11/29/2011 at 4:01 am #1954738I have a GSAK database of all the caches in wisconsin if your looking for something specal. I get 181 with “woods” in the cache name and and 6 with “Park and Grab”
11/29/2011 at 4:07 am #1954739Wow! Just think of how many of those there are world-wide!!!
I don’t have GSAK. Every so often I get a whim, or I’m thinking of what to name my cache, and this capability would be nice. Just didn’t know if I was missing something somewhere.

GSAK is so much fun. You just need a real computer.11/30/2011 at 2:45 am #1954741@Team Black-Cat wrote:

I traded it in for a Mac.
