Incorrect number of founds?

[+de Blitskikkers]

Hi,

 

According my geocache profile I have found 248 mystery caches. However when I run a pocket query on my finds and I filter on mystery caches I see only 247 caches.

I believe the pocket query is more accurate but don't understand how the profile can show a 'wrong' count and how I can resolve this.

 

Hope someone can help with this.

 

Thanks,

Duplicate 'Found it' log on one of the finds?

(Stats show number of Found logs, not the number of caches found)

Let's be clear, here....

 

A Pocket Query of "Caches that I have Found"?

-or-

A MY FINDS query?

 

These are different.

 

A Pocket Query, as opposed to a My Finds query, does not return archived caches.

Hi Gitchee-Gummee,

 

There is a my finds section on http://geocaching.com/pocket just below the active queries. This one shows archived caches as well and doesn't have the default max of 500 results.

 

Thanks,

Raymond

The crappy part about that is that all your milestones will now be shifted. I had a great #500 milestone I was very proud of. I was saving it for that number. When I went back to remove the duplicate logs (five of them) my #500 was a nano on a Wendy's dumpster. Sigh.

 

As a side note, since my milestones were thus fubar'd, I went back and changed the "found it" logs on the 4 or 5 cemeteries I had found then adopted to just notes so it would show a star and not a smiley.

You are a PM, you can edit your milestone to the right one.

Also why change to notes? You found it then adopted it. It'll still show up in both places, just on the map it shows as a smiley for you.

Fixed it for you.

I prefer to see the star over the smiley. If Groundspeak ever fixes it to show the star on adopted caches then i can always go back and change the note to found it.
