well, I'm glad it's not just me. HOWEVER- AQ IS taking the Thomas Point Beach (look at mine, there's proof).

What I ended up doing was the first few steps up to having to do the location and hitting SAVE. I did the location, got stuck in that stupid loop, backed out, went back to the stamp to edit, and then started out on the step AFTER location and continued until finished.

it's bumpy but it works. And seeings more of us are having that issue maybe bring it up to Green Tortuga? Here's my noob question: are there are admins or a board to send these issues to? (I'll probably look after hitting 'submit' but I'm tossing the question out there anyway) :)

well, now, see i saw yours, and said, "oh hey i have to do that." and then, well, i got stuck in that stupid, "your location matches more than one location. Please pick one" loop. and it wouldn't SAVE the bloody thing no matter what i did.

and i already accosted the Great Green One with a problem today so i'm not going to ask. . .

peace, tigs

Well, I'm glad it looks like I did them correctly. The whole time (aside from that wonderful loop) I was thinking "lord, I'm doing this TOTALLY WRONG". but hey, it's about a rubber stamp, not like it's War Games (LOL). I'll msg about the problem.

You can just list them for Brunswick, Maine...

They should be listed as either WOM boxes or traditional finds. And use the limited time icon unless you are actually planning on planting them somewhere in Brunswick afte rthe event : )

Hmm. I didn't have any problems using Thomas Point Beach when I listed a couple of my boxes.

I typed in exactly what you have above, and it suggested the same thing with a county. I clicked on it, clicked "Store", and was good to go.
