Looking back, this has been quite a year. It was just before Christmas, 2011 that I first started investigating whether to work on a DGP replacement. Well, with your support and help, Redfist and I pulled it off. I'm actually very happy with how the site is running now. There are always more things to do to improve it but the bulk of what we wanted to do is now functional.
So what's coming in 2013? I know I'd like to get out and find some lonelier caches than I was able to this year. I'd really like to make Arizona Ranger Team's Ranger Alpha work to keep his lead in the Arizona standings.
For LonelyCache, I want to get some sort of revenue stream going. Not much, just to cover any operating costs that arise. I'm in the process of setting up a LLC. Once that's done, then work can start on setting a store front up, etc. We really wanted to get all this done for Christmas but there was just too much to do to get it going. I also want to add a way to see who is rocking the standings. Right now it's easy to see how individual geocachers are doing, but there's no way to see who the top point gainers are. I'd also like to set up some sort of annual competition. Who were the top point gainers for the past year? Actually, I wouldn't mind snap shotting that for 2012 too. If so, we'll probably have to do that January 7 or so, so get your 2012 finds logged.
