or dead? Not sure who runs that service but it is not working as I found out from someone trying to log one of my moving cache / travelbug combos.
So not really a problem with OCNA but present a problem for OCNA

Oh boy, must have expired. I hope that's all it is. I once tracked the guy down, but he has very poor English. I'll see if I can find him again. Heck, maybe even **we** could do something if it's gone. But my experience with .mx is that "foreign" domain names are expensive!!

I found him, I linked to his Geocaching.com account in my own blog post on Coord.ch. Of course he may not answer....

No response, several days later. I also started a thread at opencaching.de, so we'll see if anyone knows who the guy is, and what can be done. They'll generally respond in English, although their forums aren't a hell of a lot more active than this.

Yeah, we'll get occasional SQL errors in the forums, I mostly get them when trying to quote a post. Thanks for the report though, I'll have a look. We are probably about 3 versions old on the forum software, assuming they update it every single year.
Good news though!! Someone at opencaching.de **has** talked to the coord.ch guy, and he says he will fix it in 4-6 weeks. Which is a llong time, but if he follows through, no big deal, I guess.

I should bump the thread at opencaching.de. I knew this would happen.

Every body Pauses and stares at me
These simple links are gone as you can see
I don't know just who to blame for this catastrophe!
But my one wish on Christmas Eve is as plain as it can be!
All I want for Christmas is my coord dot ch
My coord dot ch, see my coord dot ch
Gee, if I could only have my coord dot ch
Then I could wish you, Merry Christmas
It seems so long since I could say
"Coord, dot ch OU 0 what ever"
Gosh, oh gee, how happy I'd be
If I could only link 'em
All I want for Christmas is my coord dot ch
My coord dot ch, see my coord dot ch
Gee, if I could only have my coord dot ch
Then I could wish you, Merry Christmas
