And on top of that, they ask you questions and think that you know which cache they are asking about.
I read minds but long distance esp is too expensive.

Congrats on the big 6Kilo cache find marc
This post is kinda like “who is that masked man?”
I had the pleasure of meeting the Jim half of the team at my CITO event in Appleton this past spring.
They have put out not just a high number of caches but good quality caches as well.
You must be pretty dirty by now… that’s a long time to go without a shower.

08/11/2008 at 4:34 pm in reply to: Reviewer question (?) Needs maintenance vs. Needs archive #1894306I’ve never logged either. And I probably never would on a DNF or multiple DNF situation. Does it really need Maintenance or to be Archived if no one can find it? Only the owner knows. Maybe they check on it and it’s fine and choose not to log their check. You never know an owners intentions. I usually don’t even email the owner in these cases. It’s their cache and if they want stacks of dnf’s so be it. So many cachers use the “needs maintenance” log when in fact it probably doesnt even need maintenance. I see this a lot.
Now if the container is busted and the log is soaked, then a “needs maintenance” would be warranted… or it’s infested with ants or earwigs, etc. Yeah they should probably do some cleanup/maintenance. I don’t even log a need maintenance if the log is wet. I just note that in my find log. If they choose to continue to ignore their logs it’s NMP (Not My Problem).
I look at “needs archive” to be used in cases where perhaps you are approached because you are searching on private property so you log your find/dnf noting that it’s on private property and you send the owner a note and there is no response and the owner hasn’t logged in for awhile. Then perhaps, a needs archive would alert the reviewers to a potential maintenance item. That’s how I see “needs Archive” being used. However, trying to contact the owner should be first in the process not later.

We went to the Milwaukee zoo instead. Had a great time.
Was it on a roadside cache on Hwy 88?
What a very Lucky cache find! (8’s a lucky number I hear)
It was fun to log caches yesterday wasn’t it? Just wrote 888 for the date…
Congrats!
Congrats ❗
er, should we retract this one?
it’s kinda like those news headlines in the “weekly news” tabloids at the grocery store.
“Bat boy lives!”
Apparently, the log was a tall tale….
That whole cache has become some what of a mystical entity in and of itself.
I am sure zoe is closing in on a milestone anyway but logging it as a bogus find takes the cake!! Congrats! 😛

but I do sit here now and want more statistical info
then submit a followup poll to get your statistical info! 😀
I have seen that if you throw a poll out here, folks will answer. This board is like a magnet for opinions and polls make it possible for people to vent, er’ give there opinions. People will always post “responses” above and beyond the given poll question simplicity.
on the subject of this poll – When I archive, I archive. except for that one…

When I was brand new to the hobby, I started planting caches right away. Many of them are still up and running and over 1 year later I am still participating. My first placement was a puzzle. (please keep your comments on puzzles for another thread 🙂 I think in doing so, area cachers were like “who is this cheeto?”
nearing 2000…. you are laughing and crazy. take it easy old man. 😀
that’s crazy man… makes me think of those star wars things only it’s much cooler than that.
why would he want to visit Oconomowoc?
maybe they saw the goal on the coins page which says to visit wooded caches in Wisconsin and not being familiar with the state, looked up cool sounding city/town names and picked the one they could not pronounce when reading? 😀
I don’t think your alone with the construction… there’s all sorts of new “temporary one way roads” all over appleton right now….
i think they made the whole thing up but it’s still funny when people tell a story regarding trackables.
