The assides that have popped up here have been very refreshing… No Randy, I don’t think you have an unethical bone in your body. Stop feeling guilty.

Unfortunately, this thread gives just enough information to figure out who it is about. The recent finds and stats are heavily incriminating, and point to a select few cachers. I regret that I made the effort because the result is very disappointing. Their absence from this thread is doubling my confidence in my conclusions.

This is a very interesting subject. To start off, There is one find logged under T&tb that was found by Trudy solo and three more found by the beast solo. For all others, we have walked the walk together. We have seen several teams log independently when they cache independently, and log as a team when they cache as a team. We have had some adventures with a couple of “Super Teams”, Team Synergy and Team Badger, but every member of each team walked the walk.

I am disheartened by a recent rumor of a Super Team that has taken the other course. They take to the trails independently and sign each others names on the log books. They will quickly score some big numbers. I believe that it will not be long before their “victory” will become rather empty and they will drop out of the game. Their mark will be a scar.

The marks left by cachers such as Active2gether or Pharmteam will be much more worthy of emulating.

We have been leaving our T&tb card [some are magnetic]. Like hotdogs_off_trail, our supply is getting low.

If the cache has been archived, I don’t think there is anything stopping you from Putting a new cache in place of the old one. Your only loss would be the previous posts and the time required to make a new cache.

This gives those who have already found the cache, an opportunity to find it again.

Keep on caching,

Painted Ammobox?

Ah but what is in the color?
An ammobox in any other color
is yet an ammobox.
an ammobox is an ammobox is an ammobox.

paraphrased from a very early geocacher…

Daylight savings time…
I remember the days when the DST law was enacted. We had only one clock in our house. Today we have digital clocks built into the microwave oven, the kitchen range, the coffee maker, the thermostats (2), the TV sets (3), The VCR/DVDs (2), The desk top computer, the lap top computer, the cars (2), the Stero, alarm clocks (3), travel alarms (2), a pocket watch, wrist watches (4) Clocks on the wall (2), GPSr (4) and a partridge in a pear tree. Some of these reset in April and October automatically, others don’t. I can’t keep track of which. I found that it’s best to let the event pass without concern…afterall it is Sunday. Then look for the clocks that have updated to get the correct time. I know the wall clocks and watches will need manual resetting.

The whole business seems to have gotten so confusing. All we are trying to do is get an extra hour of daylight during the summer. Why do we try to fool ourselves into thinking the time is something other than what it is?

Very well done Ken. Big Kudos.

The first thing I thought was: Did the cache owner have permission to place this cache? This goes a long way to prevent this type of problem.

KUDOS, my friend. It is great to see your achievement posted here.

Not bad for a couple of flatlanders. Kudos Mike & Sue.

Big kudos! The race to 1000 is starting to get interesting. Keep on caching.

We wish you were all there, but we know that is tough to arrange. It is great to be able to share these milestones with friends.. Cashing out hit 1000 and Linus4cache hit 800. Great weather, the Packers waxed the Cowboys, and Genius Loci lined up a great day of caching in Glencoe. Life is good. Thanks for all your encouragement, it gives this activity a bit of a family feel.

[Ray]

We were holding off until it became official. I guess it’s official now.
This is another capper on a really great day. Thank’s Pat & Bob for sharing Your achievement with us. It was really a privelige to be there when you hit this big one. Kudos with a side of accolades and a big standing ovation on top.

[Ray]

We’re right behind you John!
Big Kudos fron T&tb.
