That would be great! Just pull the cache for the stats, but not allow the
cache page to be viewed upon clicking on the link on your site. I just want
to see the numbers stay aligned.
I thought I remember you or Brian saying something about the
azgeocaching.com site itself had to be a member to crawl the MO caches. I
stand corrected! If this was true: I would propose this... each and every
one of us sends $1 to Brian/Jason so their site itself could become a
member... that would be more than enough to cover the membership to
geocaching.com and the rest could be considered a donation for all the work
yall have done to keep those stats available to us. If your site is already
able to grab the MO caches, then let's all donate a buck anyways! Either
way.. perhaps we all should donate the $1 each year to pay for Brian and
Jason's geocaching.com membership anyways. I myself have always felt that
their efforts provide me with everything I need to geocache in Arizona.
Whadya think?
