Opencaching

Achei piada a este Geocacher usar como avatar no site do Geocaching.com, o Opie, a mascote do Opencaching

É o avatar de um concorrente e as "caches" de Outro...

E a ti? Quem te explica o que é o Geocaching?

Depois de todas as explicações que foram dadas no tópico que referiste assumi que estavas a dizer isso como piada e respondi com outra que exemplificava o que lá foi falado.
Pelos vistos não estavas...sobrestimei a tua capacidade de compreensão...

E a ti? Quem te explica o que é o Geocaching?

Explicam-me os utilizadores activos deste fórum, do outro ali ao lado, a informação toda que há por aí pela net, as experiências ao vivo com outros geocachers...mas sobretudo, aprendo cache a cache, desde que não esteja com palas nos olhos a achar que já sei tudo ou com dogmas em relação ao que é este jogo. Do alto dos meus (nossos) menos de 150 founds consigo perceber que já aprendi muitas coisas importantes e que ainda tenho bastantes a aprender. Felizmente o que não faltam são oportunidades para isso e algum discernimento para perceber onde ir buscar bons e maus exemplos.

Em relação a este tópico aprendi que o que faz o jogo não é um site ou uma empresa e que havendo alternativa a generalidade da comunidade prefere um modelo que seja regulado e que evolua de forma sustentável.

MEDOOOOOOO

We’d like to welcome a new geocaching force to the OpenCaching team. Many know him has Anthony Stealth. On geocaching websites, he is known as StealthRT. But you can simply call him Stealth.
Stealth is a geocacher to the core. He has thousands of geocaching finds spanning North America and Europe. As proven by his hundreds of placed caches, he’s skilled at hiding them, too. He’s very active in the geocaching community, having hosted close to 30 geocaching events in the last 2 years alone.
While Stealth refuses to admit to collecting geocaching coins and trackables, when he brought just a portion of his “non-collection” into Opencaching headquarters, he managed to lug up multiple tubs packed to the brim with coins. As he explained the name and origin of each coin, everyone became convinced that Stealth was simply in denial. He even recently stayed up until midnight for the release of a limited edition trackable geocaching book. And when the book was released, did he purchase only one? No. He purchased 5 of them.
By contrast, Stealth readily admits to being caught up in pathtags. Stealth refers to the exchange of pathtags as the new geocaching handshake.
“At first I resisted pathtags, but I recently folded,” he said. “I couldn’t help it. It is amazing how much creativity cachers are expressing through pathtags. The best thing, though, is that additional special connection you make with another cacher when you give them a pathtag or receive a pathtag from them.”
We are excited to have Stealth’s background and experience to help lead OpenCaching. If you have not had the chance to meet Stealth in person, keep a look out for him at upcoming geocaching events. You can also welcome him to the OpenCaching team by dropping him a line at Geocaching@OpenCaching.com.

E vão estar presentes num evento da Groundspeak.

"Find us at Geocoinfest, October 5-7 in Englewood, Colorado"

Esses anúncios do Opencaching são a evidência de quem não tem mesmo mais nada para dizer

Realmente ele há com cada coisa. O mais engraçado é mesmo irem a um evento da Groundspeak! hahaha

Score A Montana From OpenCaching.com



For many geocachers, this time of year is the slow season for events and caching adventures.

The crew at OpenCaching wanted to give you some extra motivation to get outside and keep your skills sharp--so they decided to give away a Montana 650t.

All you'll have to do is send an email to geocaching@opencaching.com with your OX code from one submitted and approved cache, to be entered to win.

The contest begins on 1/30/13 and end 2/28/13 so you'll have plenty of time to get in the game.

Also, don't forget that you still have the opportunity to earn the "Awesome Hider" Pathtag.
