Round 6 is on! I'd like to open this thread to discussions on what we want to happen during this round.

How long? Point system? Based on the feedback posted here I will create a vote in 2-3 days to decide how this round will go. Please post away!

Three months is a nice time frame. And I like the idea about random scores.

Three months is good. Score the same as the cache Difficulty?

I don't play, but...cache difficulty would only apply to the first time a cache is found. If you score laker points based on cache difficulty someone grabbing or dropping a laker at a cache they had previously found would get more points unfairly.

Thanks for the initial feedback. Hey lurkers - now's your chance! Keep it coming.

Spinowner touched on something I would like to see implemented but have no idea how it could be done: zero (or at least reduced) points for lakers you pick up from a cache previously visited.

Another interesting point scheme would be to start all lakers with "one" point and let the point values accrue as they sit in one spot.
The longer they sit ....the more desirable they become

The farther you move it, the more points you get.

Laker Brule is not in Singing hills trail. I was there a week ago.

So, is round six gonna run for three months, and I guess does that mean we are going to be done with this round in about 3 more days? Just checking. Later

After numerous attempts to get an answer to when Round 6 of the Laker game ends, I am assuming that this round will continue until the end of the year.
