FTFs for a given cache

Question

Is there a way I can get a list of who's claimed an FTF for a given cache (assuming they claim it in a way that is recognised by PGC)?

I believe you can find it from the logs (containing the special tags) and from the bookmark lists. But having this in reasonable aggregated way inside of project-gc would be nice.

To my knonledge, the recognised signs are [FTF] or {FTF}. Searched as a string

It is not an answer and not correct. FTF's are recognized by tags {*FTF*} {FTF} [FTF] or linked bookmark list: http://project-gc.com/Profile/FTFList

I agree, my answer was incomplete. Thanks. But why you don't put your as an answer then to close the conversation?

Yes, I could do a manual search, but it would make things simpler if there was an automated way. To put this in context, I'm considering a cache like the now archived cache "FTF Take your Pick! #15" (http://coord.info/GC46J07), which has many "FTFs"

Answer 1

For one cache it's quite easy, though it make require a long time.

Just open the cache page go to end of page (this may require a lot of page down, or ctrl-page down) until you see first log from a reviewer and then search the string FTF. It cound count like that how many FTF have been present for a special cache accepting many FTF (CITO even or initiation cache at an even)

You jump then in the page for each people having put this code in log. You may be more critical using repeteadly only for strings accepted by PGC as valid flag like [FTF] or (FTF) or {FTF}

To automate that, i don't see yet valid the option 'string search in log' in the new extended search of PGC
If you store the page you could also apply a specific kind of filter  with a 'grep' behavior (linux tech people)

It's not quite that simple (if that even *is* simple), since someone may also have marked the cache as one of their FTFs using a bookmark list instead.

Answer 2

Basically, to try to answer your question, as I understand it there isn't a way to do this. As you would be presumably having to manually search for a given cache anyway (I'm not sure how else you would pull up the details for the specific cache), it would be almost as easy just to do a manual search on geocaching.com and look who got the FTF.

Even if there were a way to do it, that would only work if they'd logged in a way which is recognised by PGC, as you've said. If they hadn't, you'd still have to go look at it manually anyway.
