Yup, definitely! Maybe some sort of award for how many DNFs a person has avenged? Or an official stat? I feel like that would be a strong motivator for some. There must a challenge cache out somewhere for that?

I drove down there from north of the border for the weekend. Spent some time exploring Seattle, finding a bunch of really creative gadget caches, and generally hanging out with some good geo-friends. I was quite impressed by how far some people travelled in order to attend. I think it's still one of my fondest memories of 2022!
I will pretty much always log a DNF if I feel like I gave it a concerted effort -- only reason not to log might be if there was muggles at GZ, or I was in too much of a rush to actually search. I do have some friends who don't log them -- I don't entirely understand their reasoning, I think having a blue dot on their map just annoys them. But I feel the same way, I'd rather have a record of what's been attempted vs. not. I'm impressed that HQ took such pains to look into people's behaviour, though! That was an interesting "study" to read
Wow, that's a really unique idea! I'd probably be very challenged to produce anything legible for myself, but I like it!
Yeah, I was pretty surprised myself... this was near a camping ground too, so a pretty frequented place. I suppose it might have just been re-hidden badly by a recent finder
Not sure what you're using to browse Lemmy, but I believe the Connect app offers this functionality
Just remember to also pronounce it Gag-lee-ar-dee Way (just kidding, definitely don't!)
I was definitely into caching for a long time before I bought Geocaching Premium. Unfortunately I don't have an iPhone, but most of my iOs-using friends prefer Cachly. I believe that's not entirely free though -- $5 one-time payment, which is still better than a subscription... I've been using c:geo for ages, but I'm not sure that's available for iOs
I have a Smart Tag (Samsung version of the Air Tag) that goes in my luggage when I travel. I quite like it -- fairly easy set up with an app, small, battery has lasted me over a year to date. Cost $40
City crematorium - you kill 'em, we grill 'em
Wow, gorgeous! Would love to explore that part of the world someday
