The FOREIGN CURRENCY CACHE 3!! Sunnybank Hills, Queensland, Australia
By CommunistOnions on 21-Nov-20. Waypoint GC930HD

As discussed with the prior CO - best to let this one go and start again with a different approach. Thanks for all the finders.

Logging the geocaches I once owned as finds since I hid them.

The FOREIGN CURRENCY CACHE 3!! was transferred from CommunistOnions to user oz_bean_counter

Forgot to mention, but maintained before beardman found it. Replaced with sistema container but since cache has virtually no coin swaps or finders, decided not to replace it again as it is really draining my coin collection. Deleted that maintenance log after forum members said “stop posting too much logs”. Unless some miracle happens and a kind cacher agrees to replace this cache or help maintain it, it will have to be disabled.

Another problematic cache. Wet logs reported more than ELEVEN WEEKS ago with no action from the CO. Do your maintenance.

This geocacher reported that the container is damaged.

Chill. You are being hypocritical as in the forums, you said to stop posting maintenance and archival logs. Cannot maintain. Whoever wants to can message me. May I ask where you found details about this cache? Mind your own business and practice what you preach.

*IMPORTANT*
Constant maintenance issues, finders complaining about their logs, lack of coin trades and popularity, having to keep replenishing coins, looting by finders and the possible presence of a sabotaging group makes me consider archiving this cache. Unless some person decides to help or this cache becomes as popular as this cache near Brisbane (GC4055X) or even just the 6th cache is this series, this cache might have to meet its demise.

Need proof that cache is gone. Please take a photo of the surroundings.

As we all know, there is some issues going on with certain people that call themselves geocachers (or might be some local gang members) that are ruining the game for everyone. I will try to come to check and help fix this one soon. Such a shame. I will keep this one going I promise! If you want to help maintain any of my caches, feel free to message me. Looks like I was one of the people targeted.

Visited this cache today as I was driving paste. Cache is missing, looks like it has been Muggled. Very little debris left to camouflage cache. Looks like council has done a clean up of the park.

Replaced about a week ago. Removed the old container and replaced with a sturdier container. Cache was looted and sabotaged by some people who call themselves “geocachers” However, our community is standing strong. So discarded the yucky log and remaining swag and replaced with coins. There seems to be a local gang at night that leaves makeup products and cigarette products nearby so yeah. Looks like the recent storms got to it again. If you have a spare piece of paper, please place it in and cover the cache with plenty of camouflage to shield it from the elements, gang members and sabotagers.

Quick find. Container has some sticky stuff on the outside and everything inside is wet. Thanks for the cache

Thank you!

Out walking with Madison17273 and found this cache.

A nice quick find because the cache was out in the open. Lid had come off too, allowing the rain in. The log is in a sad state and needs replaced.

Good.

Out with lisylou and mnance101 today tftc

Quick find with bennyboppers and mnance101 today. Log was very soggy and wet, but still managed to sign. Tftc

Out caching with the Tough Mothers (Bennyboppers and Lisylou). The log book is saturated but got our name on it. TFTC!

Quick find top fill oon a calendar day.

Tftc all good here. No coins with me to swap.

Kids had great fun looking at the coins. Didn't exchange. Just looked at it and left it there it was wet though so couldn't write in

Still staying alive. If you like this cache please feel free to create your own coin cache.

Quick easy find

As far as I can tell, these caches have currency in them. The wording of a log just sounds weird. The log says that he or she did not leave any currency themselves. Hope this can explain.

Caching morning with IolantheK and Richmond Lad in the Calamvale and Sunnybank Hills area. Thank you to the COs for placing these caches for us to enjoy our geocaching.

Nice quick find.

Out and about today with joojoo57 and Richmond Lad. Our targets were caches we all needed to find in the Sunnybank and Calamvale areas.

A quick find here. TFTC, CommunistOnions.

Out and about caching today with joojoo57 and IolantheK. Found the cache after a quick search (no foreign currency left ). TFTC CommunistOnions

Did maintenance on the behalf of the cache owner. Replaced the leaking container with one of the same type, put a new logbook and put it into a snap lock bag and added coin related goodies. All good and ready to be found. For the people still watching this geocache please unwatch as there is nothing problematic to see here anymore.

Found on our daily exercise during lockdown. Please be aware of baby magpies in the area with protective parents.

A quick find was made here today while walking the geo pup. Tftc

Revisited cache today as part of my exercise during lockdown. Cache has had no visits logged (paper scrap is wet so this might be the reason) since mine on the 4/1/21. I have taken some photos of this cache to show the current state of the cache.

By the way judging by the photos and my past experience the log is barely wet. The playmoney is not waterproof but it is not supposed to be there anyway because CommunistOnions said please no toys. Not entirely supporting the cache owner but I think this is still a good cache.

TMZ59’s log is WRONG again. The logpaper is no problem and the rest of the contents are waterproof, causing no problem for the geocache. Yet again, TMZ59 hates things that people put effort into. Also, why is everybody watching this geocache, what is the fuss about?

Will replace geocache soon, any logs during this period will not be counted as the cache is disabled and the geocache is being subject to replacement. Please do not log as it is a waste of your time. Thank you for your cooperation.

This geocacher reported that this geocache should be archived. A community volunteer reviewer has been notified.

Already done the maintenance TODAY. Log is signable and the rest of the contents are a tiny bit wet but not to the extent that it affects the cache. Why do you keep messing with this cache? Respect other people’s caches please. Would you like it if you had a geocache and it was archived? Me neither, so why are you trying to get this geocache down when it has been maintained?

Done the repairing. For any reviewer who looks at this, the cache is fine. I think RandomExplorers is right, these caches are being trashed and abused. Many, many people have appreciated these geocaches so it will be disappointing for those who might never get a chance to find these geocaches because they might be archived in the future.

Found it earlier this day. It was like the owner described, a bit damp but functioning as normal. Sad to see people hating this. I hope that things like this will last a log time.

Disabling due to personal reasons. Please do not retract or archive this.

I understand that this log will be deleted by the CO, like the last five have been deleted, because she/he doesn't like being to told that the cache needs to be either replaced or repaired as its contents are wet. I have had friends whose logs have also been deleted by this CO, because they to have suggested the cache needs some maintenance. We only do this to help the CO look after hers/his cache.

The log was replaced, but the container and contents are still wet, so therefore the log will also get wet. I may not own my own caches but that is my choice and I have been caching for many years and I have a good understanding of what it takes to maintain a cache as many of my geocaching friends have hundreds of hidden caches and we often talk about it.

I hope that this will help the CO understand the importance of respecting the opinions of other cachers.

Can’t sign log as it is missing. Have left a maintenance request with CO.

Not sure what happened to my log from earlier, seems it must have been deleted, but cache container is all wet and needs to replaced. Also there is no log to sign. I should have taken a photo to show CO. Next time I will make sure I do. TFTC.

This geocacher reported that there is a problem with this cache.

I have already done the maintenance. Log is a piece of paper. Also it is not wet at all.

Already did the maintenance.

I've tried to message you, but you won't reply. I have emailed the reviewer regarding your behaviour.

Re logging with permission of cache owner for 1/1/21. Cache condition may have changed since.


Found, but contents in about 1cm of water. Drained out but log ruined so can't sign
Someone has put mostly play money in there and other kid swaps. Swapped aust 1c coin for Indian looking coin 1? ?

Replaced

Done

Ministro from the guidelines If a log contains obscene or threatening language, delete it immediately.” That means I do NOT have to contact groundspeak. Futhermore, by deleting irrelevant logs I am helping other geocachers by letting them know how the geocache is really like. And also, when I delete an irrelevant log I usually tell the logger to either relog or just accept it. More then often, they accept it. If the log has been locked or not a big of a deal I post these notes to let geocachers accurately know how the geocache is. Also, why do you keep specifically looking at my geocaches? They have no problems and function properly so you must be just randomly looking for problems with my geocaches. If my geocache works fine and follows the guidelines, you shouldn’t interfere.

With Kind Regards
-CommunistOnions

Don’t know why people keep looking for problems with these caches.

By the way, I have never had a concern with the reviewer about deleted logs before.

TFTC

For those with deleted logs. Your logs do not comply with the logging requirements of my geocache.

Thanks a lot divehelen for locking your irrelevant log. Please either delete your log or I will take further action.

The cache appears to be in need of owner intervention. I'm temporarily disabling it, to give the owner an opportunity to check on the cache, and take whatever action is necessary. Please respond to this situation in a timely manner (i.e., within 28 days) to prevent the cache from being archived for non-responsiveness.

If you require more time please be sure to **post a note** (not an email) explaining the situation and how much more time you require. For ongoing issues please ensure you visit the listing and post a new note every 28 days to keep everyone up to date, if you do not then you cache may be archived without further note from a reviewer. Caches archived due to lack of maintenance are no longer unarchived and you will need to submit a replacement as a new cache.

Can confirm that the container IS waterproof.

Back today and found again but completely waterlogged, tried to sign it but far too wet. The last signature on log was mine on the 5.12.20.
TFTC

This cache needs a new log as the container is not waterproof and I removed water from the cache.

Ignore the previous log as it is probably someone looking for attention. Checked on the cache it is not wet and it has plenty of coins inside. IGNORE THAT LOG. They even went as far to lock their log. DO NOT READ THE LOG.

Geocache was full of water- log to wet to sign not much foreign exchange- thanks

Nice park. But need maintenance. Logged with water

To anyone who sees this. This cache is still out there! There are tons of old and foreign coins inside so feel free to find this geocache!

Attended a work Christmas Party at the Pub around the corner and just had to find a few close caches. This was easy enough to find but I really don't like the ones close to people houses, lucky they didn't have a barking dog and I went in daylight. Log signed and replaced as found. TFTC 0

Exchanged an old Thai coin with the Singaporean coin. Please feel free to increase the number foreign currency in the geocache. All is good with the cache. Thanks George Montague for starting the first trade!

Found this one quickly as it was completely uncovered. Added to the log, and dropped a very low denomination Singapura coin. I recall a previous cache with this theme over in Toohey Forest which ended up with quite a large number of foreign coins, but it didn't last very long. Whether kids found it and took a liking I don't know. Hope this one survives. TFTC.

My partner and her friend had to attend a gathering at Sunnybank today and I decided to take them since I'm such a nice person, plus It'll give me the perfect excuse to grab some caches while they're preoccupied talking about their work crap that doesn't interest me one bit, so yeah. I'll stick to caching thank you very much.

I had a great day out despite the searing heat , I'm not a fan of it one bit, my body doesn't like it and the rest of me doesn't like it either. I only spent a few hours out and gave up shortly after, I couldn't take it anymore. In the end I crawled away with 12 finds and unfortunately 1 DNF.

Thank you to each and every CO for placing caches at these locations, some were quick and easy, while some others were a little tricky.

Parked near this one but the park was being used, so an attempt on the 1st in the series was made.

Came back about 15 minutes later and the park was empty. Walked up to GZ and made the find in about 15 seconds. Nice little park!

TFTC!

There was muggle sitting with his back against a tree, eating his lunch and reading a book. Luckily it was another tree and he was on the far side of the tree. I don't think he even knew I was in the area.

A quick find.

TFTC CommunistOnions

Nice one.
