GeoRacing

August 29 looks like a good day to stay out of the Jackson area. The Bluff Boys have created another georace, which by definition, encourages individuals to violate traffic laws in order to be the first to find a bunch of caches. Speaking of which... the geocaching.com guidelines still have this phrase in it's description/definition of events:
"In addition, an event cache should not be set up for the sole purpose of drawing together cachers for an organized hunt of another cache or caches."
This text from the cache event page technically fulfills one definition of organized:
"Each stop will contain a cache (regular size or micro) with info for the next stop."
The fact that the teams are partially formed on the event log page fulfills another definition of organized.

Of course, I already know that the volunteer reviewers pick and choose what portions of the "guidelines" to enforce.

Update: 8/30/2009 - I see that Titansfan showed up to add another "5/5 where he didn't have to do anything but show up" to his list. Bravo.
