[Az-Geocaching] A ranking list of...a different sort

[Tim Giron]

I have noticed that there is a bit of funged data in Dan Miller's stats.  HighwayHavoc's Florida cache is a prime example... It is a physical cache and there is no log entry for highwayhavoc on the geocaching.com detail page for the cache.  His data pull routines apparently don't re-validate all of the log entries when you use the "missing log" functionality, since they don't appear to clean up errant data when run.  The site is also slow as molasses.

All in all, the SnapTek guys do a much better job of keeping their data clean and the site snappy...

Have you logged any locationless caches?  Those can be listed as anywhere.

Jim, Team Scotti.
