I find this new “rule” particularly annoying. The goal is to have fun. The Cache Bash over the last couple of years has had a couple of “side” events that were a lot of fun and a better alternative than going to a bar or a bowling alley. My idea of geocaching is to be outside. Furthermore, the lack of a CITO or other events on the same day ruins, or at least makes the chance for a multi icon day challenges, more difficult.
How far away do “side” or alternative events need to be away (in distance) from the Mega or Giga event? If I want to host a birthday party event for my daughter on the same day in West Bend – will that be considered a conflict?
In any case, I just want to say I appreciate Deejay and Bec for doing what they do voluntarily and doing a good job at being fair.
