GC Explorist Gps - Short Logs

Postby Yazzman » Sun Jan 08, 2012 10:10 pm

I got a new Magellan GC Explorist Gps for Christmas and found out why we are seeing a lot of TFTC logs or just :) 's. Once you mark a cache found on it, it asks you if you want to put a comment. Then you save it. Return home and upload logs and finds to geocaching.com. It takes to long to type logs on the gps so thats why we are getting a lot of short logs.

I ran into a another cacher that does it and all his logs are that way(short).

Guess since we live in the fast paced get it done quick world: can't really expect much more from some people! Still' I enjoy sitting down and hand typing my logs while reflecting the days adventure and replaying the finds in my head. I do like to see more than TFTC on my logs but to each his own! Just keep finding them!

I always sit down after I get home and write my logs. I enjoy the logs about as much as I do finding the cache. As a hider I like to hear about the adventures others have out of the geo trail. But if they just write TFTC then that is okay. The . letter F from the I phones leave a little to be desire but again that is the fast paced get it done way. But in some case I know personally a that some I phone caches do not have a computer at home. Just keep caching and having fun.

TFTC irks me to no end, but oh well.

. only is a no go. that's just a placeholder.

especially when it's on an earthcache where they haven't sent the answers in yet.
