https://project-gc.com/qa/?qa=tag/not-found Powered by Question2Answer https://project-gc.com/qa/?qa=15988/what-think-about-algorithm-hide-that-maintenance-geocaching The 'secret' algorithms for spotting the caches that need a maintenance at geocaching.com are according to me completely wrong. As hider, what do you think about it? How do you spot the cache that need the most a visit?<br /> <br /> And I could say that statistically as I have more than 500 placed cache of which about 30 are selected by me for future maintenance. (with help of project-gc query 'need maintenance')<br /> <br /> So simple for me is 3 or more 'not found', by different geocacher (yes some put two time the same message), on a different dates (yes, the same date is a complete team that doesn't search well) and by geocachers having experience (say more than 300 found and/or more than 20 placed caches). &nbsp;<br /> <br /> Another is to see which cache not so often visited that have a delay of twice the mean delay between visit.<br /> <br /> A 'wet paper' message is not for me having many caches a priority, at contrary a broken box is certainly a message for which I put the cache on my list and then, regularly (or not according to wheather) i define circuits of maintenance with project-GC (or GSAK that I still use sometimes)<br /> <br /> Now that i see results from geocaching.com to spot hide that need maintenance,I understand better why there was a great &amp; stormy discussion when the virtual were distributed!<br /> <br /> As hider, what do you think about it?
