April Fools
Hopefully everyone had fun this April Fools day. Many of us reviewers did.
There was a group of us that formed a group that bounced around publishing caches in other areas. I only published a few in Utah. Last night right before midnight I posted "I Give UP" on facebook. Then avoided listing until today.
I got an email from england saying my account was hacked and I published a cache there (I did but I was not hacked). Another lady asked me about a bunch of hacked accounts. Some reviewers said they had been fired, others that they gave up. And others told people that due to a dispute with groundspeak that others were publishing in their area.
Not all reviewers were involved. Some did not have time time to plan and prepare for it. It was worked on for a number of months. How we would do it, how to keep errors from creeping in, and what we might say. I know two reviewers were asked if they were replacing me.
In all it was fun. I got two thank you notes for listing their cachers from Europe. I lived in France at a number of places in the 80's and It was exiting to be able to publish a cache a few miles from where I lived.
I know of other jokes as well. Some poor fellow had one of their caches published, retracted, and reviewers from around the world posted notes for and against the cache before it was finally left alone. Still other reviewers published obviosly fake caches, or outlandish caches to get a chuckle from others.
Hope you had fun. Hope you noticed the fun. In all I think there were 18 reviewers that published in Utah from around the world. Ogden, Weber, Salt Lake, Utah, and Central Utah all had a number of caches listed by different reviewers. Too bad things were slow int he St. George area. I wish the joke had carried on a bit better for them.
