I happen to really enjoy puzzle caches. I like multi caches even more. That said, there are some issues which are not obvious when you don’t see what is happening on the inside. I have seen many new hiders (and even a few experienced hiders) struggle with placing new caches in crowded areas. Certain parks (Telulah Park in Appleton is probably the worst case) do not appear to be saturated, even though they are completely full. This causes new hiders to attempt to place caches in these locations, which obviously get kicked back to them with the instruction to either “find the cache/solve the puzzle or contact the owner to get the coordinates”. As reviewers, we are not allowed to give out the hidden coordinates to other cachers. We try to direct them to a less saturated areas, but it doesn’t always work. I have seen many people who try multiple times to place a cache, eventually giving up and walking away from the game. Who knows how many of these people would have become active players, given the chance to get started with their first hide?
This post got a lot longer than I intended. The main point I wanted to make is that if one of these new people writes you to ask for the coordinates of your puzzle or multi cache, please consider giving it to them. I have done this myself several times with my own mystery caches, even though they are easy field puzzles. Helping these guys get started is good for the longterm health of the game.
Haven’t seen a new hide in Appleton from me in a long time.
You were one of the folks I was thinking of when i originally posted this thread. You have got some nice work.
Hmmm, I guess nobody does Flicker.

I love global warming! Hmmm…no warming in the past 11 years…earliest measurable snow…we best change that nomenclature to “climate change” before anyone notices!
All this snow coming, I hope the Polar Bears are Happy

Cool thread… I’m enjoying reading the stories. 😀
When I first started (and even now, occasionally), people thought I was PharmTeam’s daughter (nope, no relation).
When I first saw your name that’s what I thought.
Most everyone already knows…I’m Lostby7 because I lost a bike race by 7 seconds and I like the tag because it reminds me to try a little harder.
As an aside I know I could have won that race if I hadn’t been run off the road on a down hill by a passing car….but then who would I be? I think I would have chosen some variation of “TheGate” as that was my online gaming name for many years.
Or would it be? Wonby7?
I like to tap dance on Dodge trucks.
Congrats Shane, break that evil cycle that tells you that you NEED to go find a cache.
Hello my name is jim and I only found 65 caches this year>
