I thought I'd start this thread so that we all have a place to announce our new caches without always starting a new thread. So, here goes.

FINALY! Two new Riddler caches in the queue. Riddler: Have a coke and a Smile and Riddler’s Mailbox, the one that's taken me so long. I hope you enjoy them. Neither are Mystery caches this time. I had finally come up with a puzzle for one when Debbie said to me " Why make it a puzzle? Why not do a couple of traditional caches so that more cachers will try them out" What a great idea I though, and a whole lot less work too.

Good idea! (On both counts!) :)

[rogheff]

Great idea for a thread Jay! I have 2 new Earthcaches in for approval (sorry, not local - both are over by Madison), my newest troll just came out, The Spawn Series finale is in approval stage, I've got a couple of caches awaiting assembly - thought I'd do another night cache (an easy one). Got another Troll (I'm actually adopting this one - they're so cute when they're young)

Then there's my big 100th cache hide. It's a seed cache with a twist or two. It's all ready to go, just waiting on the...well...100th to come up.

I'm looking for inspiration for a new series. My wife works in a doctor's office ad has access to lots of pill bottles - might use that somehow. I've got a couple of Spinning a Yarn caches prepping too.

Hey, can you tell that I really like putting caches together?

Pill Bottles??? Since when do you like pill bottles?

[rogheff]

Now Jeff, do you honestly think that Rogheff would place a pill bottle in a crotch of a tree and call it a day? I think not!

My comment is to state that I have lots of pill bottles. I just need to come up with a little idea on how to use them.

Oooooh...inspiration: The Pill Bottle Series!

Works for me..as long as it isn't constantly taking aspirin out of the pill bottles for headaches caused by frequent DNF's ;)

I planted another today. This one is called ".81". It's in South Van Patton Woods near Metalurgy 101.

[tyedyeskyguy]

Soooo, .81 got published just 4 hours after it was set in the queue. Riddler's been waiting since Tuesday. Mayybe I should put all my caches in IL. NOT!

I think that ElectricMouse does nothing but sit in front of his computer all day and approve caches... ;)

Hang in there, Jay. I'm sure that either Jeff or Brian will have them listed soon. Thanks for placing them.

[tyedyeskyguy]

I have no doubt either. :cactus: :D

[CinemaBoxers]

We have a new cache pending - Placed 12/29. Called "Pick A Part" Off of 173/41 on the Van Patten trail. Enjoy!

[tyedyeskyguy]

They are both published. Enjoy.

"Jabba's Prized Possession" is now on display for all to see.

[CinemaBoxers]

Wow.. I was going to post our new one here.. but Electric Mouse pounced on it!
Its live already!
Gotta love it!

[Cheesehead Dave]

By the way... the Senior Searchers have called you all out...

[CinemaBoxers]

Wow.. I missed this one. But then, its a bit further than we usually trek out on a day to day basis.

Looked at the puzzle briefly, but my brain is dead today.

Im guessing its not so much a puzzle, as something out of place slightly?

/me raises the difficulty a star... :shifty:

[CinemaBoxers]

The more I look into it, the more lost Im getting...
Im seeing repeated coords, and dont know whether to ignore them, or pay MORE attention! LMAO

All right..I'm slacking. I solved it.....just looking for the time to go for that one plus a couple other nearby caches. I'm hoping to nab a Riddler one either Monday or Tuesday as well.

good going Jeff...

[tyedyeskyguy]

I just solved Rogers new puzzle, and now it's time to take another look at yours Dave. So far I'm stumped but I haven't given it much thought. We were gone all day at the Field Museum in Chicago, and my brain is just too tired for another puzzle today. I'll be giving it another look tomorow.

[tyedyeskyguy]

Dave, your new puzzle inspired me. No, I haven't solved it yet, but the layout... well you'll see. Oh I can't wait! Gotta fill up an ammo box tonight. Mwahahaha! :shifty:

If GC.com ever comes back up, I can submit my new cache called "Goodbye 2006, 400/40".

[tyedyeskyguy]

Goodbye 2006 400/40 is published.

[CinemaBoxers]

Yeah.. I looked closely at that one. But those of us on dialup are not friendly with google earth for any extended periods of time! LOL

Methinks this one will have to wait till we go to lunch at Panera with the Laptop.

[rogheff]

Cache numbers 97, 98 and 99 are in the quqeuquecuecueeue.

The big 100th will follow shortly-teehee

[bluesquirtles]

:innocent: We have a Squirtle Challenge waiting to be approved, hopefully by tonight! Mega_monkey (Christopher) has his 1st one in waiting also. Hoping to have many more soon....... :innocent:

[rogheff]

Yeah, I have a Squirtle Challenge awaiting approval too. Pill Bottle hide has been published and a new Troll. Actually, it's an old troll. Well, it's new to me. Well, it's not new to me, cause I've seen it for a while. Well I adopted it, so it's new - so figure that out. Relogging is allowed cause it's a whole new container and hide.

[tyedyeskyguy]

Which troll Roger? I didn't get the notice.

If it's an existing cache that was renamed like the Southport one was, you wouldn't get a notification for a new cache.

It would show up in a query as a "new" cache if the date were changed to the new hide date. Then it would get the "NEW!!!" arrow next to it for a week.

[rogheff]

It's been renamed "The Orginal Troll (well sorta)" #GCQ8CE. I did change the date to yesterday. Most folks here have not found it. I know Dave did and several others. But it's a different container in a different spot under the same bridge - so go refind it.

I thought when I adopted it that it would come up as brand new - guess not.

[CacherClan]

FWIW

I got notice of the cache yesterday

[CinemaBoxers]

We got notice as well... maybe later today!

[tyedyeskyguy]

I think it was out of my range. I do live way on the north side of kenosha. That cache is over 21 miles from my home. It seems anything over 15 miles or so, I don't get notified of. Think it's that way for everyone, or a matter of how your preferences are set.

[bluesquirtles]

Re-set your preference miles .... :D
