Questions and Answers:
1. Do previous finds count? - Yes
2. What if the Top 5 in the Faroes change before I finish finding them? - You only need to find the Top 5 that you opted in for as posted in your note.
3. If the Top 5 changed and I like that list better can I start all over? - Sure, just delete your first note listing, post a new opt in list and continue with your Top 5 challenge.
4. What if there is a tie for say 3th place? - Just count 5 favorites down from the #1. That's your qualifying Top 5.
5. What if there is a tie for 5th place? - Pick the one you want.
6. Can I substitute favorites from other countries? - No this challenge is for caches in the Faroe islands only.
7. Is there a time limit? - No, you can take as many days, weeks, months or years as you want to finish.
8. If the Faroe Top 5 challenge cache ever makes it to the Top 5 favorites in Faroes will it count? - No, skip it and go find the next one.
9. I am the cache owner of a Top 5 listed cache can I count it as a qualifier? - No, if you are the cache owner to one or a few on the top list dropping your self and choose instead out the top 5 on the list that you are not the owner of (ie proceed at No. 3, etc.).
10. I adopted a cache that is in the Top 5, can I count it? - Well if you have actually been there where it is hidden and/or completed that caches finding requirements yourself then sure why not.
11. What if one of my opt in Top 5 get archived before I find the final? - Two answers for that one. If you already found the archived cache you opted in for then it still counts. If you had not found the archived cache yet then you need to make an adjustment to your list.
