FWIW, I think the 7 day rule should stay and should be enforced.
I am working on getting access to the geocaching.com live API. When that is finalized, I could then work on incorporating verification that the cache has been logged, check dates, etc. at the time the report is made.$.02 from the hippie:
1. The LCG is a way I can give back a little by checking up on some of these caches and in some instances even replacing them.
2. The timeframe to log them is good to have, maybe could even be shortened, to make bookkeeping by the volunteers easier and to motivate me to get my logs written within at least a week 😉
3. It’s for fun! As for subtle and not subtle jabs, I don’t consider myself or the other ‘players’ losers just because we don’t rack up thousands of points. Some of the best caching adventures I’ve been on solo or with a group were due to the LCG.
Looking forward to seeing everyone at the LCG event, peace!
WOW! That’s a lot of references from a 5 month period!
Labrat’s quotes were from December 29th. The BODs, LCG Event attendees, and LCG players have all communicated since that time and monthly prizes were reinstated. It will be the responsibility of the prize donor to make sure the monthly winner receives their prize.
If you really want proof of when a cache was logged, you would need to PERSONALLY check the physical log for accuracy.
Any volunteers?

I’ll send you the source code. Should be an easy fix…
I was just wondering. OK, apparently it’s not an easy fix…
Rats… had several paragraphs here to post but my connection dropped and I lost it.
Let me paraphrase – log your stuff in a timely manner or they may be deleted. tired of it.
If there is a legitimate reason for late logging, include it in the submission and these will be taken on a case by case basis.Disclaimer : Always answering to a higher power.

10. Lonely cache find/attempt/adoption reports must be submitted by the 3rd day of the next month. Any reports submitted for the previous month after the 3rd day will not be approved. Prompt logging of reports is encouraged so that the administrators can keep the scoreboard updated as much as possible. Heavy logging of reports at the months end may delay the results for the month.
:lol2: Perfect, Love it!!
Thanks to Hitman4 for sparking this topic and bringing it back to life again 😛 .
This should make it easier for admin to administrate now too.
Thanks!!!
Just to clarify in case anyone is curious. The old rule stated:
10. Lonely cache reports must be submitted within 7 days of the find/attempt/adoption to eligible to score points. Reports submitted after this time period may be approved but will count for no (0) points.
Every time I try to submit a report of a find on the LCG I don’t get anywhere. I click the tab on the page and…nothing. I am using either an iphone4s or iPad. I have a couple in Standing Cedars I wanted to file last month but the we page doesn’t want to let me.
The best sig is no sig.
