Not for a record breaking day, not for any day. If you a are top ranked cacher and working toward reaching the #1 spot, I sure hope, Sprocket, that you yourself was at each and every cache you logged as a find. I know I was and I got to #1 very legitimately. I hope that the next team that takes me out of the #1 spot will play it as fairly as I did. I know the stats are a big screwed up right now, but Sprocket, you are quite possibly in the #1 spot right now. If not, you are very close and will do so any day now. I sure hope you are playing it as straight up as I am. I have seen your logs all over the place and we have met up at caches many times. So, I am confident you play the game fairly. But, why would you suggest in your post above that you think it is ok to split up your team to find caches!? Have you done this in the past!? Anyone can play this game any way they like... there really are no hard set rules. However, there is certain etiquette and rules that the top teams tend to maintain... in honor of good sportsmanship and respect for our fellow 'competitors' (as we most certainly are sometimes!). Splitting a team up to find caches in certainly NOT one of them. I know myself, I have been at EVERY single one of the 1,210 caches I have found and only I wrote my log in the logbook and then online. I have other teammates that go with me on occasion, but I am ALWAYS at every cache I find. I will not allow another teammate to take another GPS and split off to get other caches. If they want to do this.. they log those finds as another team. AZSaluki.... Jim is always at all of their caches they find. Kristen is at many of them, but Jim is at all of them. I believe that Wyle E has also stuck by this 'rule'. Just my personal opinion. But, anything less is cheating in my book. In this game.. I guess you are just cheating yourself if that is how you have been doing it. Of course, you would also be cheating your fellow cachers who have worked very hard and legitimately to get to the top as well.
