Domino 6/6 Port Pirie Regional Council, South Australia, Australia
By gooseandegg on 27-Nov-18. Waypoint GA13234

Hidden just inside the Southern section of the Mount Remarkable National Park. Awesome views over Port Pirie and Spencer Gulf from here.

28 finds for the price of one. Seems a bit off-kilter, but as we've hardly done any geocaching during the past eighteen months, we'll take the boost to our finds for the year.

Today we took Mrs J's mum out to The Bend motor sport park for the inaugural Bend Classic, and as this cache was on the way, we decided to take the short detour to collect it.

This cache is no longer at the listed coordinates, and will be placed somewhere new soon.

Thanks gooseandegg.

Will get it moving again soon

I always loved Dominio's I did not expect that little baggy of Black and White dots though when I opened up that lovely painted sistema.

I am assuming these little guys stay together, so ill work out a good spot to move it too before continuing its journey.

Always love getting some new movables here in South Australia, but with this one i think I will try to move it a bit further south so some more local GCA cachers get to log the collection.

TFTC and the game of dominos!

Oh - and go griffin

Down and gone

Saw these hit the gong and glad to see them make their way here.

A quick find with Just a cacher while catching up with Sol de lune today.

Thanks for the cache gooseandegg.

With other family things scheduled for the same weekend, I didn't manage to make the Mega down near the Gong where these moveables turned up. However they did all manage to make their way to the national capital where I've picked them up and now have them. A neat little bunch that obviously took a little while to set up. With a bit of luck I should have all them all logged in the next week or so, once the grandkids have played a game or two.

Thanks for this series Gooseandegg......just need to work out where to relocate them to now.

GCA 2,515. Saw an amazing number of moveables at the recent Gong Mega.

I'm sure I've never seen so many in the one place before. Good luck on your journey !

A quick trip today to the Launceston area to rehide some of the moveable caches we seem to have collected up. This area has become a bit of a transfer station for moveables travelling through the north of Tassie. Happy travels

A quick find in an area that has become something of a hot spot for moveable caches in recent times. What moveable cache wouldn't love this area, so many places to hide, not far off the main road and hardly anyone ever stops here. We'll move this one on asap. TFTC

Close to the fence. Look for the zip lock bag that rattles

Found in a bag on the table at the Moveables are here event at Riverside this evening. This one will come with us to continue its travels in the state.

Today attended geocaching australia event: The Moveable are Here!!, graciously hosted by Tassie Trekkers. Was fortunate to make it to the event as was not working and I only noted that it was going to be held on the previous evening - almost missed it. So many moveables in the one spot, roughly 150 in attendance. Nothing for it but to record a couple of notebook pages full of numbers. Its been a long time since I have had anything to do with dominoes, these days its all electronic beeping gadgets, most kids wouldn't know what a domino was, let alone have any clue as to how to play .. thanks..!!

This cache will be attending the GA13289 The Moveables are Here Event 3.12.18 at the Tail Race, Riverside. Please don't look for me yet as I am hitching a ride!

Dominos are great, but personally, I'd rather play Mah-jong - although there's 136 or 144 tiles in one set!
Hi G&E,
Thanks for this moveable that I spotted whilst tabled at the Snug event.
I left it in place for others to find and move on.

Out and about today with RLD4963 and the GeoGSP, I stopped in at the moveable event (GA13269). It was flat out spotting and logging moveable caches - have not seen so much action at a geocaching event before. Luckily there was a nearby GC event after this one, where we could recover with a cuppa and a biscuit. Good luck to everyone for the current GCA game, and thanks to everyone who has published geocaches in time for the event! Cheers. Thanks Gooseandegg.

Found at the Snug moveable meet along with many other moveables. What a busy time I will have logging all these moveables. I found four moveables at Evandale and bought these along for the ride. Other people bought many more though! Everyone had a great time. Today’s event will help everyone in their position on the ladder for the summer game. The game is described below

The latest Geocaching Australia game runs from 01-Dec-2018 00:00:00 to 31-Jan-2019 23:59:59 AEST


This new game is about the choices you make in the experience of the journey or the destination.

On your entry to the game you will be asked to create a playing field with a number of ground tiles. Your playing field is a grid 20 x 20 ground tiles making a total number of 400 possible steps you can take on your journey or destination. You choose whether you want to find and follow the path or whether you wanted to meander around. A playing field is unique to each player so there is no benefit in teaming up to beat the system through brute force.

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


Dirt. The ground beneath the ground tile is just plain old brown dirt.

Dirt with some points. The ground beneath the tile is brown dirt but it has some points associated with it.

Concrete. The ground beneath is part of the pathway that will lead you on your way to your destination but has no point value.

Start. A concrete ground tile that has a blue map marker.

Destination. A ground tile that has a green map marker.

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.

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. In general the following applies:

A moved log with new co-ordinates indicates that the cache is in the new location ready to be found.
A found log with new co-ordinates indicates that the cache is in the new location ready to be found.
A found log with no new co-ordinates may indicate one of two situations:
The cache has been found and left in place.
The best way to determine this is to read the found log and hopefully the cacher who found the cache has indicated whether it is still in place.
The cache has been found and the cacher has taken it away to re-hide it.
The best was to determine this is to read the found log and hopefully the cacher who found the cache has indicated whether they have taken it away.
In essence, you will need to read the last log to determine whether the cache is in place or whether the cache has been moved. Remember that even though the logs indicate the cache may be at a certain location, it may have been picked up and moved only moments before you arrived. That's part of the challenge of a moving cache; you're never quite sure whether it's a DNF because you can't spot it or it's been moved along.

Found at one of the two events I attended today.
A good turn out by the die-hards to find all these trackables and movables.
A great time had by everyone! I left it on the table.
Thanks!

Hi goose
Arrived at the event early and got these Sainted and signed at 1140 hours
Thanks for an interesting series of caches
Just sad I missed the game Dominoes
I'll have to up the ante next time

The latest Geocaching Australia game runs from 01-Dec-2018 00:00:00 to 31-Jan-2019 23:59:59 AEST


This new game is about the choices you make in the experience of the journey or the destination.

On your entry to the game you will be asked to create a playing field with a number of ground tiles. Your playing field is a grid 20 x 20 ground tiles making a total number of 400 possible steps you can take on your journey or destination. You choose whether you want to find and follow the path or whether you wanted to meander around. A playing field is unique to each player so there is no benefit in teaming up to beat the system through brute force.

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


Dirt. The ground beneath the ground tile is just plain old brown dirt.

Dirt with some points. The ground beneath the tile is brown dirt but it has some points associated with it.

Concrete. The ground beneath is part of the pathway that will lead you on your way to your destination but has no point value.

Start. A concrete ground tile that has a blue map marker.

Destination. A ground tile that has a green map marker.

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.

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. In general the following applies:

A moved log with new co-ordinates indicates that the cache is in the new location ready to be found.
A found log with new co-ordinates indicates that the cache is in the new location ready to be found.
A found log with no new co-ordinates may indicate one of two situations:
The cache has been found and left in place.
The best way to determine this is to read the found log and hopefully the cacher who found the cache has indicated whether it is still in place.
The cache has been found and the cacher has taken it away to re-hide it.
The best was to determine this is to read the found log and hopefully the cacher who found the cache has indicated whether they have taken it away.
In essence, you will need to read the last log to determine whether the cache is in place or whether the cache has been moved. Remember that even though the logs indicate the cache may be at a certain location, it may have been picked up and moved only moments before you arrived. That's part of the challenge of a moving cache; you're never quite sure whether it's a DNF because you can't spot it or it's been moved along.

This cache will be attending the GA13269 Snug Moveable Meet 2.12.18. Please don't look for me yet!

FTF @ 7.45 am. Thanks for the clever set of tiles that I removed from Neville's clutches. Will take to the event tomorrow. Nice to catch up with the CO for a chat, as I got sprung while I was retrieving SSR's "Short of a full deck" moveables series. I hoped you got a good photo of the oil rig. TFTM
