WE HAVE ARRIVED

Well, it has happened. velocache.net is now a fully operational battle station. Prepare yourselves.

Before I digress, which I am known to do, let me start off by giving some credit and handing out some thanks. This would not have happened without you all. You know who you are. Thank you. The new site would not be in existance without Buttars, if you run into him, give him a hug and buy him a beer. HUGE thank yous to the veterans out there who have kept this afloat in times of trouble and triumph...I have personal things to say to you that will have to wait until we have a face to face.

At the pokercache party on September 19 I would really like to take a bit of all of your time and preach a little about "the game". We'll see, I will probably just get drunk and cry a lot.

SO. Go to the site. Familiarize yourself. It is different than the one we play on now but can do all of the things we do now AND MUCH MUCH MORE. You will need to create an account. It is free and always will be for players. I realize some of you have already been in and have looked around but it is time for everyone to come on board. Texting from a phone to the site works. E-mailing too. There is a great forum feature that we can all cache ourselves in as well. This site is still in beta. It is not finished so now is the time to see if we can break it.

For now, play around. Posting "real" caches is not off limits but I think it might serve us better to get really comfortable with the new toy before we go "live". Post pictures of your cats and dogs. Go to the forum and talk about bikes. Have fun.

LOVE to you all. -A. Mortician

Um, actually your velo-elf will not be granted +4 awesomeness due to an oversight in the rules of play, ahem...

Before you head out to grab a cache, make sure you are familiar with the rules.  They have been lovingly typed out two different ways on the right hand side of this site. 
 Please bring your camera!  One of the coolest parts is checking out everyones unique take on the perspectives that have been thought out and provided.  
When you find a cache, please post a comment or e-mail as soon as possible so other riders are not fiddling with the waxed tips of their mustache bars, gnashing teeth and wondering if the loot is still available.  
Hide your cache well, and well away from any places that may perceive a relatively unmarked box as a threat of threateningness.  The bomb squad just blew up a pair of shoes in a box, for cryin' in the night, what if they found a box or bag full of stickers, Dutch literature, Dynamo labelers, bad wine, audio tapes, etc.  They would have a fan-fucking-tastic afternoon and then blow it up.  Then they might contact us all at the site.... (a little paranoid maybe).
The game is shaping up very well, and I hope all have had fun playing, I know we have.  We want it to continue for as long as it can.
Thanks, 
Velocache
