Why doesn't GCG95Z appear in MapHiddenMonth when I filter for geocaches hidden in 2003?

Question

Hi,

I'm using the MapHiddenMonth tool from time to time but today I found what could be a bug or maybe there is something I didn't understand.

For example, if I look for geocaches I didn't find in Switzerland and that was hidden in 2003, the result omits GCG95Z "Basel 1" that was hidden in june 2003.

What could be the reason of this? Moreover, I'm concerned that maybe other geocaches won't show in this tool when I use other filters (false negative, somehow).

Regards.

The tool you're using is showing months you haven't found already. As you've logged June 2003 any cache hidden in that month will not show up in the tool. If you just want all the caches hidden in 2003 you should use Map Compare instead, as that can be used to show all caches.

Thank you! I was so focused on the map that I forgot I could have found a another June 2003 geocache before! That was silly from me. Thank you again.
