I believe there’s a date wrong on your page…
“2011 Race Details
The 2011 Race has not started yet. Registration opened on October 9th, 2011.”
Don’t you mean October 9th, 2010?
Thanks Cheryl. I fixed it.
Do you have a GC # yet on the TB event so we can drop in our trackables?
Don’t worry about dropping your trackable. Before the race begins we will take care of that for you. I believe the event is still being set up.
Five racers from Canada are on their way as of today! Here’s to hoping they make it in time. Would be a real shame if four of them went missing in the mail…
I mailed my TB before Christmas, I hope it arrived safely and ready for deployment tomorrow.
Will we get notice when the TB’s are dropped and the Race begins ?
Yes Darin, you’ll receive a typical owner e-mail when the item is grabbed from you and then dropped into the event.
Does the kick-off race event today count as 20 points for attending an event? 😀
Also, does the original photo we put in the description count for 5 points? 🙂
I’m excited to see the race start today!! 🙂
I mailed mine, Rocking Around The World, on December 14th, but it looks like it hasn’t got to CachingCop as it hasn’t been grabbed or placed into the starting event!
Will the points be posted somewhere from time to time to see where we stand in the Race ?
Let’s take care of a couple of questions for you.
@Cache Chick
Yes, the original event counts for points. No, the photo you took for the description does not count. The plan is to use them to create a page on here, and having the photo aids that.
@Darin
If you take a look at the 2010 Race Page, you’ll see a “Race Rankings” link. This is where you can see a list of all of the items, their score, and their position in the standings. This will be done again this year.
@Slightly Tall Pall
Has CachingCop e-mailed you? We had been discussing this the very day you posted this comment. Seems a mailing problem prevented your item and another person’s item from arriving. I assumed since I hadn’t heard from you that this was taken care of (I was on the road all day). Please contact me if you are still awaiting word on your TB as we had been discussing a solution.
My Travel Bug TB20Z6D “Rudolph” was moved to two caches by unknown cachers and not logged properly but mentioned the cache Numbers in their TB Log.
Do I get points for these two since the cachers didn’t log it in or out of either cache ?
I’m just Happy it turned up after being missing for 45 days and no points in February.
Darin
Once again my TB has been taken and not logged. WTH .. Do I restart a new TB ? or just quit the whole game ?
@Darin – don’t worry, they probably just forgot and will either log it later or the next person who finds it in another cache will log it … that’s what happened for me. I lost some miles, but at least I know it’s safe and sound and back in the game!
