know they were planning on separating out the locationless due to the number crunch. I assume they'll be rolling that out soon since numbers are almost used up. I'm sure a number of us would be willing to help update azgeocaching.com.
What is going to happen when the numbers are used up? The waypoint of the most recent cache placed is GCE5C6. At the current rate of new cache placements (which is obviously going to increase as geocaching continues to add new adherents, and the weather gets warmer at higher latitudes and elevations), we should reach the cache with waypoint GCFFFF before the end of April.
Then, what will Geocaching.com do to increase the number of waypoint numbers? Is it possible to add another digit, thereby making the next waypoint number GC10000?
