Luck isn't my forte. LOL I don't consider myself unlucky; I'm just saving it up for something big like the lottery. ;-)

This looks like a huge amount of fun! I'm signed up for the one in Ypsilanti, MI in May. Are you going to run or walk it, or a combo? I've been working on running, but can only do 1.25 miles without walking for a bit. This is WAAAY better than when...

I'd like to improve my clue-writing. All this talk about great boxes has made me wonder what others consider great. So, what do "blue diamond" clues look like, to you?

Omniglot is awesome. I always wanted to create something in rotor script, but it seemed like a lot of effort to create the animated gif file, so I settled with my Pain in the Brain box. Consider it rotor script for the lazy. LeBug

For those lazy as I, here is the direct link to rotor script: http://www.omniglot.com/writing/rotor.htm If somebody is interested, I do have the actual alphabet, which does show that I may one day be motivated to create a box based upon it. :-) LeBug

I've earned my NC Treasure Hiker 100 mile tag quite a while back, but I find that I still like counting miles. I've looked at Ryan's new site that he mentioned in his blog, and I really like it. You can count any miles anywhere. :) You can also e...

I emailed the distinguished cachers Meh, they're Numbers Cachers, the kind that have a list of 20 caches to find that day and spend the entire time racing around the city trying to get as many as possible in that time. That's why they get so bent when...

Yeah, I had my other hybrid listed with it in the title, but this one I was trying to be consistent with how I listed it on AQ. Oh well! I agree, numbers, numbers... :) They probably only looked for 10 minutes before they looked up the cache page!!...

ok, now that's a perfect example of not all boxes are for all boxers. that would give me a migraine to solve. ~tigs (guess what? i do have limits)

Haha...when people know their left from their right and list the tree type correctly, that certainly makes for a better clue. <wink>

make me think - sometimes a lot, sometimes a little. tell a story, teach me something. if you teach me something, tell me a story and it's a great place -5. if it's just a mediocre place but there's a surprise twist at the end, (look up the Middle of N...

By the way, I wanted to just mention how cool I think it is that Ryan designed a way to see the self-identified boxers by state. There are a lot more than I would have guessed for Georgia. Thank you! I definitely am going to snag one of those premium...

when you share yourself, others share with you. It's that simple. Hip Hip Hurray for tigger. This goes down as the statement of the year.

i second what RIClimber has said. . . now if i can just get to them, and stop emptying out Topsham and Bowdoinham, i can get them. . . ~tigs (maybe this summer. . .but then, there's Oz. . .)

You are in luck... with the recent warmer weather - we have almost no snow cover. But the ground has completely refrozen overnight. And lucky us - the wind is just lovely, NOT. I might suggest Royal Cousins, The Dash and Kissing Cousin - (all Giddy...

Fun little word play. I remember one that said to take the correct trail. Well, which one is the correct trail? If you don't know I guess you'll be left behind at the junction.

My plan is to run, but we'll see where I'm at by then. Haven't actually reach a goal, just set one I'm really excited about. :)

These are blue-diamond clues. And so are these. Oh, and let's not forget these! :^)

Some reviewers are better than others. My reviewer is a PITA to deal with. He insists on having final coordinates, so I put them as a secondary waypoint. The last one I posted, I even copy/pasted the the text from the guidelines page to the Reviewer...

I agree with LB about checking out the CCCP board. I also spent a lot of time last year working with some great clue writers. The boxes we did together all went BD: http://www.atlasquest.com/showinfo.html?gBoxId=198901 http://www.atlasquest.com/show...

So, what do "blue diamond" clues look like, to you? Well, aside form the obvious comments already stated here (accurate, fun, unique, creative, visual, complex) I think a blue diamond clue takes a person on an adventure from start to finish. LB, DD, E...

I'm familiar with some of the mysteries that you and Mama Wolf have posted here. Coming up with the clues (let alone the stamps, logbooks, and locations) for these types of boxes can be incredibly time-consuming. I have one mystery plant that I'm prett...

It is already on my list to go there. And we will be going to a couple when we go back east as well. I'm just looking to get in on another aspect of this fun hobby.

Just heard on the radio that the nc forest service is doing a controlled burn at Halliburton park in Wilmington. At least 3 of five boxes of mine will most likely be burned. I don't have time to save them. :-(. Maybe ill get lucky
