Gordon,
 
They count. I haven't done yours yet, but I did "American Flag" Members
Only Cache (MOC) down in Tucson, and it's counted correctly on
geocaching.com. 
 
What you may be referring to is the fact that azgeocaching.com can't
list the find under the team's individual list of logged caches on their
team stats page. I exchanged emails with Brian on this, and it's because
their crawler is not a member, so it can't see the MOCs either. Just
like they can't list out-of-state caches there, either. But both MOCs
and out-of-state caches get counted properly in azgeocaching.com, too.
So, if that's what the issue is, it's a minor inconvenience. Brian and
Jason are looking in to how to deal with it.

I've been told that "Members Only" caches do not count as a find.  Is
this true?  I made my "FREE" Ammo Can Cache (GC760A )a members only
cache, but have since changed it.  I have only had two visits to the
cache so far, and they just happen to be the 1st and 2nd highest cache
finders in Arizona!  Sorry about that guys :-(  
 
Team Coyote1022 just placed another cache today, just finished posting
it now and awaiting clearance from geocaching.com.  We wanted to get out
of the heat today and headed to Libby's 188 cache.  On the way back we
got West Fork Sycamore and was going to let Jibeho30 nab Snow on the
Highway, but found it fenced off with Keep Out signs posted.  We place
our new cache up near Bushnell Tanks.  To be more exact, 320 feet from
the stone water tank!  Just a short hike from your "Jeep" :-)
 
Hope someone out there can give me the scoop on Member's Only caches.
