The name of the game is discipline and strategy. You are seeking a combination of the most requirements claimed and the highest number of points without exceeding 1,000 points. You are not claiming the requirements first. It is not meant to be a race.



The games software will attempt to reject any claims that would put your score over the target points. It remains your accountability to ensure you do not exceed the target points.



The game tracking mechanism relies somewhat upon your honesty when logging your claims. The games administrators will undertake verification of each log. Players who continually log inaccurate information will be disqualified from the game.



The game administrators decision is final. The game administrators will delete logs that do not clearly state which requirement is being claimed and a justification for the claim. The game administrators will attempt to contact you in the event of any confusion, however the game administrators reserve the right to delete any logs that are deemed not to have met the requirement.



The games administrators reserve the right to provide clarifications to the rules at any point during the game.



If you have any queries about whether a geocache is suitable, contact the games administrators prior to logging the find. The games administrators will try to finds way to say yes to a requirement rather than say no. Lateral thinking is encouraged, but please, when in doubt contact a games administrator.



Welcome to GeosportZ 2016GeosportZ 2016 is all about geocaching based on the disciplines found in the modern Olympic Games. Try your hand at Equestrian, Marathon, Kayaking, Basketball, Sailing, Triathlon and many, many more disciplines. There are lots of different disciplines and related challenges to choose from during this game. Some will be easy. Some will be tough. Some may be impossible.This game challenges you to maximise the number of requirements you claim and to reach but not exceed a target of 1,000 points. The higher your points the higher your position on the ladder. The more claims you make the higher your position within the same points totals. Ladder positions will be calculated on points (high to low), then claims (high to low) and prizes will be awarded accordingly.There are prizes for finishing in certain places on the ladder, so even if you can't complete all requirements and you don't meet the points target, your strategy may mean you can still claim a prize by being weaselly like a weasel. Prize positions will be 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 10th and then every subsequent 10th position until the number of prizes has been exhausted. This could mean that some days position 90 is the highest winning position and other days where position 50 is the highest winning position. Prizes are dependent on the ladder positions being filled and your position on the ladder is based on your strategy.You do not need to register specifically for the game. When the game commences you will be able to lodge your claims. Your first claim will register you for the game and place you on the ladder. You will need an account at Geocaching Australia in order to play this game.
