Here's how it works: Find a cache, once a week. The idea is to get a cache CLOSE TO a bunch of "Favorited" caches as possible. The points you get for that cache is the number of Favorite Points combined from the 20 closest caches. Just hit the "ALL NEARBY CACHES" button the cache page you find and total the FAV Points listed. One Point (or coin chance) for each weekly winner. Remember - Close only counts in Horseshoes and Hand Grenades (and this CONTEST)!
THE EASY RULES:
- This contest runs until Saturday, Midnight, April 1.
- This contest runs weekly, Saturday Midnight to Saturday Midnight.
- Find just one cache and list it in a reply to this thread.
- Only caches listed on www.geocaching.com (that you have not previously found) count as your weekly entry find for this contest.
- On the cache page for your entry find, hit the "ALL NEARBY CACHES" link that shows the twenty closest caches. Count up the Favorites of all the caches (max 50 per cache) on that page and type the total along with your cache entry in your weekly reply to this thread. All favorite points you see listed count (even the one you found - it should be at the top of the list).
- You may change your entry in any county as many times as you want PRIOR to Saturday at Midnight.
- Your entry must be within GCGC Territory (see the map in our logo at the top of the page)
Remember:
Max number of points awarded per individual cache shall be capped at 50!
EXAMPLE:
* Say you find "The K Spot"
* Log your cache as found as usual.
* Go back to the cache page and hit the "...ALL NEARBY CACHES" link on the cache page under the description, before the logs.
* That will take you to this page: www.geocaching.com/seek/nearest.aspx?lat=35.161683&lng=-80.739017
* Total up all the FAVORITE POINTS, remembering that you can only count a max of 50 points per cache.
* The total point for your entry would be 94 points (50 octopus+2 kangaroo+11 wherigo+1 loophole + 7 drain + 1 al's car lot + 7 indiana jones + 1 teachers + 1 break + 10 raided + 2 raider +1 satchel)
