If you have read the FAQ about FTFs (which you seem to have), please add an example of a log that you think should be counted as FTF that Project-GC has not detected. In that way someone may be able to help you to see why.

thank you for your message . my problem is not that the site has missed my FTF , the list shows 55 ftf   30 to 55 are correct but 1to 29 are NOT FTFs
here is a sample of 1to29  . GCMBPT, GC1R6A9 and GC1KJQA
if you have time have a look at my logs for them and see if you can spot what I have done wrong
Ok, if I understood that you had too many registered FTFs my answer would have been different.

Go to Settings by clicking your username in top right. Then find something called FTF Bookmark list, and remove the list you have there. The mentioned gccodes are included in that list.
Hi
I have removed the bookmark lists I had there and added a FTF list of the caches that are FTF only , hope this will sort it out . thanks for you help anyway . . the only way I could delete my old lists was to stop them from being public , I will have to make them public again though as they were proof of challenges I have done .

Everything of importance for that is listed in detail very well in the FAQ, go here:

Thanks for trying to help but I have tried checking all my logs and to get it corrected and even sent an email and got a reply saying it was been addressed but nothing has happened .

In each of my finding, where I first found it, before log I write {FTF} and it works 100%.

 

For example:

{FTF} @ 17:00

...
TFTC!

This is my log for GCMBPT butterflies , I did not FTF this cache but it on my ftf list along with numbers 1 to 29 .
Decided to have a go at this one as I live near to Roundhay Park Butterfly House ,and also I was struggling with A WALK IN THE PARK cache and needed to find a cache becoming a cache junky LOL
took me two hours to solve the jigsaw and had to use google earth to find the area from the co-ordinates as i still do not have a satnav.
took my 2 year old grandson for a walk in the area and had given up intending to return when i had a satnav when, Eureka flash of inspiration and bingo my second find , Opened the box to find log and some items my grandson spotted a plastic dog and wanted it so i let him have it but did not have anything to leave in place ,sorry , ,as the log is geting very tatty and i forgot a pen I must get myself organised i intend to return soon and
put something in the box and add more log paper in polly bag.
10/5/11 Finaly got round to re-visit, felt guilty that I had taken something out and not put something in so this time went prepared left metal puzzle,and rememberd to take a pen this time to sign log. this time twiged what the final number in the clue ment
as you can see no () {} []  or FTF  in my log .
What did you edit in your GCMBPT log the 12th november 2014 ?
I think I removed a set of brackets on  a comment , not FTF . to see if that would do the trick .
OK, because the cache has not been found since 31 august, and PGC is not notified of existing logs modifications, so you need to wait a new log to hope an update :) But that does not explain anything if you had only brackets, not FTF inside brackets.
thanks for the info about updates , I will keep checking m list to see if it is altered. I now realise that as I do not subscribe my updates my take longer than paying members
