Way back when having multiple logs on a cache were legal, 2005 and 2010, I attended two events that had a bonus cache associated with the event. The CO said to go ahead and log the event twice if I found the bonus cache, which I did. Project GC does not count those two multiple logs. Is there a way to get it to do so?  Geocaching.com does count them in my total finds. Project-GC count is off by two.

Event from 2005  GCQA9K

Event from 2010 GC2D77G

Thanks

Unfortunately, no: Project-GC cannot count duplicate finds on single geocaches.

Note that the header on your Profile Statistics does indeed recognize your duplicate finds, referring to your find count sans duplicates as the "number of distinct geocaches" logged:

That's what I thought. I was hoping to keep the Geocaching.com total count and the Project-GC total count the same.
An easy way to get the counts to match is to delete the duplicate logs. I realize that you might not like this option, but it's the one that's available.
