What is it?
Top MD Caching Points is a weighted top list of who has cached the most. The idea is that a more complex cache gives more points compared to a easier cache, this idea comes from MacDefender [1]. The points are calculated as Type factor * Difficulty * Terrain. For example a Wherigo™ Cache with a D/T of 3/5 gives 30 points (Type factor 2 * D3 * T5 = 2*3*5 = 30) and a Traditional Cache with a D/T of 2/3 gives 6 points (Type factor 1 * D2 * T3 = 1*2*3 = 6). The type factors can be seen in the table below.
| Typefactors | |
|---|---|
| Traditional cache | 1.0 |
| Multi-Cache | 2.0 |
| Leterbox Hybrid | 1.5 |
| Event Cache | 1.5 |
| EarthCache | 1.5 |
| Mystery Cache | 2.0 |
| Webcam Cache | 1.0 |
| Virtual Cache | 0.5 |
| Locationless (Reverse) Cache | 0.5 |
| Mega-Event Cache | 1.75 |
| Giga-Event Cache | 2.0 |
| Cache In Trash Out Event (CITO) | 1.5 |
| Wherigo™ Cache | 2.0 |
| GPS Adventures Maze Exhibit | 2.0 |
| Community Celebration Event | 2.0 |
| Project A.P.E. Cache | 4.0 |
