The Challenge is that you must have at least 500 finds and at least 15% of your finds must be on cache types other than 'traditional'.
NOTE: Your cache finds DO NOT have to be in ChocolateTown, or even, Pennsylvania.
RULES:
1. All finds count and must be listed on this website. Caches listed on other websites are not allowed.
2. "Challenges" completed are not used in any way for this ChocolateTown (geocache) Challenge.
3. Generally accepted rules, guidelines and conditions for logging a cache find apply. You must physically visit, locate, sign the log and log your find online for all the caches you claim for this challenge. You also need to meet all other requirements listed on the cache page, if there are any.
4. You can't claim finds on caches you own.
5. This cache can count towards the requirements.
6. If your find count is larger than the number of unique caches you have found the excess will be considered as 'traditionals' and your percentages adjusted accordingly. This will be done by taking the difference between total & unique finds, then adding it to the 'traditional' total before figuring out the percentages.
VERIFICATION: To verify your finds you can do one of two things:
1. Make sure the 'Statistics' tab is available for public viewing on your GC.com profile page.
or
2. Use a GSAK stats macro and either post the results on your profile page or email the resulting output file to me.
Verification can be done up to 7 days before or 7 days after logging your find. For pre logging verification you can either post a note on the cache page requesting it or send me an email doing so. Post logging verification that is not done within the 7 day period may lead to log deletion.
To complete this Challenge cache, do the following:
1. Follow the verification requirements stated above to make sure you are eligible to log the cache or make plans to be eligible within seven days.
2. Find, sign and log the cache, which IS at the posted coordinates. The cache by itself would most likely be rated 2/2.
3. Please follow the above requirements and rules to keep things fun, and fair, for everyone. Failure to follow them will result in your log being deleted.
4. Write down the information on the log sheet as it will be necessary to find ChocolateTown Challenge: Rub-A-Dub-Dub (FINAL-ly).
GOOD LUCK and you must have fun!!
Just in case you're wondering (and to show one example of the eligibility calculation).... As of publication date CO has:
Traditionals: 4034
Plus: + 6 non-unique finds Rule #6
Total: 4040 Total Traditional Finds (per rules)
Finds: 4803
Less: - 2 cache finds that I own (events) Rule #3
Total: 4801 Total Eligible Finds
Percentage: 100% - (4040 / 4801) = 15.85%
Alright cachers, have at it and let's push that CO to the bottom of the list!!
Congratulations to Sammydogs: First to Find!
Congratulations to 9 Levels O'pain: Second to Find!
