Found this interesting little statistic on the Project Geocaching Website.
Caching Karma
"Caching Karma equals the number of logs you have received on your caches from other cachers divided by the number of caches you have logged. A karma above 1.00 is normally preferred. The idea is that you should give back to the community at the same time as you use it. In other words, hide caches, not only log others.
For example, geocacher X has created 2 geocaches. One of them has received 10 log entries and the other one 4. A total of 14 logs received. He/she has logged 25 caches as found, that others have created. This will give him/her the karma: 14/25 = 0.56."
Upon looking at my own logs, I note bennet as the CO amongst the highest numbers of caches I have found. Per Project Geocaching, his total Karma is currently 5.07, and in Ohio alone it's a whopping 9.88.
I wanted to create a challenge cache requiring a minimum level of CO Karma to log, but it doesn't appear to be allowed. So this was the next best thing. Thanks to all the CO's for "giving back" and making it possible for cachers to satisfy our obsessions.
This cache is a fairly easy, almost a park n grab and is available 24/7.
Congratulations to ghs for FTF!
Congratulations to Dresselmania for your 5000th find!
