First Featured Cacher Nomination
« on: May 27, 2008, 10:52:02 AM »
This poll will be open for 8 days. If you'd like to nominate someone other than one of these cachers to be the first NWOG featured cacher, make your nomination by replying.

The winner will be asked to answer the following questions (feel free to suggest additional questions.)

1. How did you get your geocaching alias?
2. What do you do when you're not geocaching?

3. When and how did you get started geocaching?
4. What do you like most about geocaching?
5. Do you have any geocaching pet-peeves?
6. What do you take with you when you go caching?

7. Have you introduced anyone to geocaching?
8. Which other geocacher has influenced/stands out to you the most?

9. What is the most interesting place geocaching has taken you?
10. What has been you most memorable geocaching find (or DNF?)
11. Which of your hides are you the most pleased with?

PS: Would anyone like to take "ownership" of the featured cacher area? You'd have to take nominations, instigate a poll every month or so, get the questions out and organize the responses to post on the main website. (I can help you get going with it if you need, but it should be fairly easy.)

Hi Darren
If you need someone to look after the feature cacher area, I'll try it out, let me know what I need to do.

If you're a man, you don't need to stop and ask directions. When you own a GPS, you're never lost; you just haven't arrived there yet.

Our vote is in as well, and the reason is consistency. 99.0034% of the time, Only 2 types of containers.
If you don't like the way I drive....Stay off the sidewalk.

Animals taste good.

Learn how to use a compass. Gps is fine until it does not work, and it sucks to have to eat your friends to live.

Well, here we have it. The NorWest Ontario geocacher that we want to interrogate first is RagBag!

Bob, I'll be getting that list of questions off to you in an email in the next couple of days. If anyone has other questions that they'd like to ask RagBag, post them here. Let me begin by adding to the list...

So, where do all those peanut butter jars come from? You must have toast at every meal!

Read Ragbag's answers to the featured cacher questionnaire on the main NWOG website. Thanks to everyone who voted, we'll do this again in a few weeks!
