    [quote=firefighterjake;44684]Maybe I'm reading things wrong here . . . and I still think it's odd that there was a DNF log on this cache, but no other found logs or DNFs (at least when I checked out this cacher's found/hidden cache page at gc.com the other day), but other than not finding the Orca cache and then hiding his own cache I don't see any real issues and agree with Brdad.


    FFJ,

    Upsalquich was playing with Hiram and Bailey came along and pulled Medawisla's hair, so Hiram kicked Bailey, and they all got sent to the Principals Office!!!

    Not sure if this was directed at me personally or just a general opinion . . . in either case I don't take it personally. However, we did just this . . . but there were some mitigating circumstances (i.e. another cacher present had found the cache before and knew where it was -- the main reason we did what we did -- we would not have done this if none of us had not found this cache previously, e-mails were sent to the cache owner afterwards to make sure it was OK to replace the missing cache and the cachers who logged this as a find also understood that the cache owner could disqualify their find if he so choose.)
    No, it was not directed at you. In fact, when I made the post I had no idea you were a chea... err, liked to bend the rules. Ok, just joking Well, except for the part where I didn't know what you had done.

    Anyway, I consider your situation slightly different because the cache's non-existence was verified by a previous finder, and replaced by him, not you. In that situation, I probably would have turned my back while it was re-hid and then gone to find it afterward.

    I consider this different than if you had gone there alone, not found the cache, and replaced the cache where you assumed it was supposed to be and then logged it as a find. This has been done before.

    That's my opinion anyway...

    So you still respect me . . . well tolerate me here at least.

    I wasn't sure if the comment was directed to me as I mentioned . . . but honestly I wasn't taking anything personally anyways even if it had been . . . and like you said, if the other cacher had not found this cache previously and knew exactly where it was it would have remained as a DNF . . . I have never and will never replace a cache where I think it should be and log it as a find . . . of course if I did I would probably have close to 2,000 finds now instead of a lot of sad faces.

    and I highly doubt that ours is missing since upsalquitch found it last week, and it's not in a very "high muggle" area...
    So I've got this cache on my watchlist and I noticed that the folks who DNFed this find and then stated they were going to hide another cache in the area have now found this cache on the very same date that they DNFed it . . . and the DNF entry is now gone.

    Anyone have any idea of what is going on? Did they find it or not? Was the other cache approved? I am so very, very confused . . . well more confused than normal.

    One way to know for sure - what's on the log?
