    After 3-4 DNF’s, you might want to log a note that you know that it is still there.

    The other way I’ve seen in hints, is a three part hint labled as such:

    Nudge
    Hint
    Spoiler

    then separate them a bit, and the searcher can decode only the one(s) that is/are necessary.

    When I try to print the article, I only get the first 2 of the 3 columns to print. What settings do I need to change to print the whole page?

    in reply to: Candidate Question IV #1761788

    Camouflage….(or clamouflage for those of you that hunted our cache at Hartman Creek) We, as geocachers, should do our best to blend in with the environment. We should practice and encourage all new-comers to practice Cache-in/Trash-out. When we search for a goecache, we should not make new trails, cause damage to hillsides or fragile plants…….strive to leave every area in better condition than we found it.

    Being a member of the Wisconsin Geocaching Association for almost 4 years, I feel the changes to our Association have mirrored those to geocaching.com. Our Association began as a group of friends who enjoyed the new geocaching pastime and wanted to share their excitement with others. We now have over 600 and probably closer to 1000 members.
    I see geocaching and the WGA continuing to increase in numbers and scope. As we grow as an Association, we will need to meet many new challenge, some expected and some not so obvious. We will need a good Board that will be able to work with it’s membership to advance in a positive direction.
    Members will come and go, as in most groups, but the corps of our group will be those dedicated to the outdoors and hiking, who appreciate the environment, and enjoy the thrill and mysteries presented with each new find. It will take dedicated leaders to continue representing geocachers, educating and negotiating with land managers, and still having energy to put on the wonderful quality events for which the WGA is known.
    I think there will be new variations of geocaching and as our State becomes more saturated with geocaches, locations may have to become limited-termed, to give new comers a chance to place a quality geocache. I foresee more events per year in different regions of our State to keep events from becoming too large or unmanageable and damaging to the environment.
    It will be an exciting and challenging 5 years.

    in reply to: Candidate Question #1761800

    It is impossible to compare myself with all the candidates running in this election, as there are some that I have not had the pleasure of getting to know yet. (I do feel that those running do present good choices for the Board). I feel the Board should be a mix of new and experienced, young and old, 1-2/day cachers and 20/day cachers.
    I’ll be the first to admit that I can use this computer, but am not proficient with most programs or programming. I feel my abilities lie in experience and the ability to look at geocaching realistically and apply my experience to the problems that we face.
    In addition to doing all types of maintenance at a large apartment complex, I am a Supervisor on our local Town Board, and a Commissioner on two Ambulance commissions and a Sanitary District commission. My wife and I are mid-fifties hikers and campers in our spare time, and look forward to the new trails and parks, mysteries and adventures that await at our next geocache hunt.

    Please accept with no obligation, implied or implicit my best wishes for
    an environmentally conscious, socially responsible, low stress,
    non-addictive, gender neutral celebration of the winter solstice
    holiday, practiced within the most enjoyable traditions of the religious
    persuasion or secular practices of your choice, with respect for the
    religious/secular persuasions and/or traditions of others, or their
    choice not to practice religious or secular traditions at all;”

    Additionally,

    A fiscally successful, personally fulfilling, and medically
    uncomplicated recognition of the onset of the generally accepted
    calendar year, but not without due respect for the calendars of choice
    of other cultures whose contributions to society have helped make
    America great, (not to imply that America is necessarily greater than
    any other country or is the only “AMERICA” in the western hemisphere),
    and without regard to the race, creed, color, age, physical ability,
    religious faith, choice of computer platform, or sexual preference of
    the wisher.”

    (Disclaimer: By accepting this greeting, you are accepting these terms.
    This greeting is subject to clarification or withdrawal. It is freely
    transferable with no alteration to the original greeting. It implies no
    promise by the wisher to actually implement any of the wishes for
    her/himself or others, and is void where prohibited by law, and is
    revocable at the sole discretion of the wisher. This wish is warranted
    to perform as expected within the usual application of good tidings for
    a period of one year, or until the issuance of a subsequent holiday
    greeting, whichever comes first, and warranty is limited to replacement
    of this wish or issuance of a new wish at the sole discretion of the
    wisher who assumes no responsibility for any unintended emotional stress
    these greetings may bring to those not caught up in the holiday spirit.)

    I found this and am sure Kbraband will approve.
