This cache is to challenge cachers to go after finds of non-micro cache sizes. This cache IS at the listed coordinates, but in order to log a find, you must meet the requirements explained below.
As I have cached over the last three and half years, I have found that I (and my sons) often enjoy the non-micro caches more than the micro (and nano) ones. So, I have set a goal of mine that at least 50% of my finds be of the non-micro sizes and that each of the six non-micro sizes (large, not chosen, other, regular/medium, small, and virtual) represent at least 1% of my finds.
The requirement for this challenge arises out of my goal to search for more non-micro caches but is much simpler, involving number of non-micro cache finds and no percentages:
You must find at least 1000 total caches among LARGE, NOT CHOSEN, OTHER, REGULAR/MEDIUM, SMALL, and VIRTUAL sizes.
Note 1: You may check your numbers of each cache size by looking under the "Statistics" tab on your geocaching.com profile.
Note 2: You must meet the requirements of the challenge at the time of logging your find.
Note 3: It is not necessary for you to post how you meet the requirements of the challenge as I will be able to check your profile statistics when you log your find. But you may wish to post your statistics in your log to give others an idea of how you have met the challenge.
Note 4: Comments in your log about your enjoyment of non-micro caches are always welcome!
As an example of meeting the requirements, here is how I would meet the requirements of this challenge as of its posting (if I chose to log my own challenge cache):
Folboter JAF has 2498 total non-micro finds:
1011 are SMALL
846 are REGULAR/MEDIUM
353 are NOT CHOSEN
123 are OTHER
107 are VIRTUAL
58 are LARGE
Please do not log this cache as a find if you do not meet the challenge. If you do, I will unfortunately be forced to unceremoniously and summarily eradicate your log (and I don’t want to have to do that)!
A note about the cache hide: as with most of my unknown-type caches, the puzzle (or in this case the challenge) is the difficult part; the hide should be easy to find (i.e., the difficulty of the cache represents your toils while completing the requirements; the actual cache hide is a 1/1.5).
I hope that this challenge encourages you to seek out the non-micro cache sizes! Have fun!
