Description
Pachycephalosaurus L10n - Dinosaur Racer
A member of the LuckyL10n dinosaur dynasty for the Spring Caching Carnival, a game where geocaching Dinosaur Racers will race around the world accumulating finds, moves and distance in order for their owner (LuckyL10n) to be crowned King or Queen of the Spring Caching Carnival.
The game requires a moving geocache to be hidden on Geocaching Australia on the 1st of September 2018 and then the owners can sit back and watch as their Dinosaur Racer travels Australia and the world. You can also help other Dinosaur Racers by finding and moving them along at Geocaching Australia.
Rules of the game
- The Dinosaur Racer must be a genuine, bone fide dinosaur. It may be store bought or hand crafted.
- Caches for the competition must be published on 1 September 2018 Australian Eastern Daylight Time (Geocaching Australia Time).
- Geocaching Australia has the facility to automatically publish your Dinosaur Racer on 1 September 2018. Check the wiki for how to achieve this.
- The game administrators decision is final.
- You may find and move your own Dinosaur Racer during the game period.
- Dinosaur Racers must be found and hidden by the same geocacher (i.e. no mailing the Dinosaur Racer to another geocacher to hide).
- There is no limit to the number of times a geocacher can find / move the Dinosaur Racer provided there are at least two other finds / moves in between.
- If the Dinosaur Racer has not moved within 7 days and you were not the last geocacher to find or move it then the "rule of two other finds / moves" does not apply and you are free to move the Dinosaur Racer again.
- If the Dinosaur Racer has not moved within 14 days, even if you were the last geocacher to find or move it then you are free to move the Dinosaur Racer again.
- If a geocacher moves your Dinosaur Racer overseas and it remains unfound overseas for 1 week or more, the Dinosaur Racer mover may move your Dinosaur Racer back to the country of origin without breaking the "2 moves" rule.
- There is no limit to the distance other geocachers can move the Dinosaur Racer.

Found in Perth, wonderful Western Australia.
Now in my safe hands; will be moved on soon.
What a pleasant surprise to have this little dinosaur amongst others delivered by friendly geocacher family from Blue Mountains NSW. Trust they will have quality time together whilst here on vacation.

For each qualifying geocache that you hide or find during the game period you will be offered the opportunity to click on a ground tile and reveal what lies beneath.
A moving cache, by nature, may have been moved since you last determined its location. It may have been picked up but not yet rehidden so it's considered 'in-transit'. There is no foolproof method of determining where a cache is simply by the log types that have been placed against the cache.

Headed up to attend the Meet the Moveables (NSW) event and this was one of the many many moveables in attendance. Great time was had by all....
Thanks for sharing this one....not sure if it came back with me. Once I go through the bags, I'll know.

Found this one at the Meet the Moveables (NSW Edition) event held at Tizzana Winery in Ebenezer. A fantastic turnout at the event run for the current 2018/19 Journey or Destination game being run on Geocaching Australia which saw a total of 75 moveables come together. Thanks for sharing.

What a great way to start the new year with a meet the movables event that saw 75 moveable caches and 10 geocacher caches in attendance. All was laid out so one could walk around the tables to sign each and every log before a swap occured to send them away again in a new direction.

This new game is about the choices you make in the experience of the journey or the destination.
For each qualifying geocache that you hide or find during the game period you will be offered the opportunity to click on a ground tile and reveal what lies beneath. There are a number of different ground tiles that will be revealed when you click on your playing field. It should be noted that there are no punishments for clicking a tile but there will not always be the reward you were hoping for as you reveal each tile
Meandering around and avoiding the path will accumulate points that will be used to place on you the ladder of wanderers. The more you stay off the path the higher the number of points you will accumulate and it will be your journey that will be the determining factor in whether you place into a prize winning position. You are free to select any ground tile to click on; they do not need to be next to each other.
Trying to find the path may mean you strike out on the dirt until you eventually come across the path and as a geocacher who can't say that this isn't a tried and true method. Once you find the path however will you try and follow the path as it changes direction around your playing field? Do you go North, South, East or West to try and find the next concrete tile along the path? If you head one way are you heading towards the start or towards the destination? When you do happen upon the destination tile then you will automatically be in a winning position.
At any point you are free to change from the journey to the destination and vice versa but you won't be able to regenerate your playing field. You are also free to keep playing as long as you have qualifying geocaches, accumulating more and more dirt tile points and placing you higher and higher on the ladder.

This one's name is too hard to pronounce so I got rid of it quickly here in Pachymatta Park.
Found this dino in the first place I looked ... but it was the fourth time I'd looked there. It didn't want to leave but it's come along anyway.

On a trip up the Dural Kellyville area met up with teamMerlin near a trig and we exchanged moveables this was one that I got. Signed the log. Both the cache and log are in good condition. Thanks for the moveable LuckyL10n

Dropped this one on a late afternoon trig run to the appropriately named Tunks Trig...but don't bother to come looking as it is now (just like the game Tonk) is in the hands of phlphotos for some new adventures.
Located a nice little nest of dinosaurs, picked up and will move on shortly

left in a nest to enjoy the spirit of the land
one of five dinosaurs that I saw appear on the map when sitting back having a cuppa after dinner. I thought close enough for a night raid on a quiet back road in the area. Easily found using torch light. Taken to move along in their journey. tftc

moved to Wilberforce for a good chance of a pick up by quite a few keen GA cachers.
Picked up and taken home for the kids to sign. Will move very soon.
