Another great video, good for beginners, not many know what they are. And as I said in your last video, too many of them think they are traditionals and think they have found them after the first stage. Multi's aren't my favourite for sure, there aren't many nearby, but those which are are actually pretty good. Also, congrats on 1k subs, that's a lot!
Hi, I'm a new geo chacher and I love the game the exploring and adventure, I have tried unsussefully to find a multi, on several occasions, but have found many traditional and micros, I am watching videos online to try work out how a multi works, Thanks for the video it has been a great help
Thanks for the message, I can be reached on the GC app (Seemyshell) or any of my socials. Feel free to send me the GC code, and I can hopefully be more of assistance
Initially Multis were higher than Mysteries in my list, but now they are seriously out numbered by 275. Amazingly however they sit in bronze position, but maybe not for much longer as my events are only 10 behind. Multis can take a good chunk of time, so my method of attack is to visit the waypoint(s) and photograph the information and return home to calculate, but only for areas I know I will return to. I find it so much quicker and easier that way. The waypoint are super quick usually and then once solved the GZ is like a traditional. Occasionally I will do a multi and find the cache straight after. I don't think I have done very many Multis that have more than one waypoint - luck of the draw. They do however offer some really great reading, learning and the bonus of a smiley at the end. By the way, a terrific video, nicely edited and amazing scenery. Great job !!
The Roos were grazing early in the morning. Lighting wasn't the best. hahaha. & I'm still learning the ways of the FinalCutProX. Thanks for watching. :)
Oooh! You had too much fun with the post-process lol! All great stuff. I like multi's - right up to the point that a stage is missing 😯 With proper maintenance, and retiring caches when a cacher leaves the game, they can mean a lot of fun for people wihout frustration!
Not to many new mutlis are being posted around here. Granted, some mystery caches are more technically multis than mystery. Keep up the good work down under. Glad you are doing well during the pandemic
BEDMAS :) Brackets Exponents Division Multiplication Addition Substraction. Can't believe I remembered that. :P You could make a math puzzle for a multi where you leave off all the symbols and have to put them in the right place. Oooooh, heeeey... lol
@@TheAussieGeocacherSeemyshell I have a geocache in my yard and I was going to archive it and make it the first way point for the mulit cache. Then in the other side of my yard I was going to put the cache container. Can I do that.
@@TheAussieGeocacherSeemyshell can a little more than a 10th of a mile apart. We have a cache that is a 10th of a mile one direction and another in the other direction.
Oh yes, I will shamefully admit that multi’s are not high on my list. I don’t know why, must multi’s I have found have been great 👍 I’ve grabbed a TB that requested to visit multi’s, so that helped my numbers 🤣 great video SMS, lovely location (rly liked the transitions) 👍
In case someone doesn’t get it When you find out A,B,CD E.T.C there will be coordinates in the description page.if it has brackets in you must do the equation in it whic equals a number, for example (d-b) would mean the letter d and the letter b minused When you get to the coordinates you should find the final cache
Always read the description, but most times the orange pin is the first stage. Once you found the 2nd stage coords, you can add them as a waypoint in the app
The FOIL method! I haven't heard that term since algebra class in grade 9. I love a good multi because they usually are creative or take you to great places
I have never successfully completed a multi. The main stumbling block is once I have the co-ordinates what do I do with them. How do I use the app to direct me to the location?
Which app do you use? That is a very good question. If you have the offical app, on the cache page at the bottom, it says 'Waypoints' Then you will see a + sign for 'My Waypoints' You will then be able to add the new WP's in to the app, and it will guide you again. Hope this helps. Otherwise, msg me on my Socials (Facebook is good)
If you are using cachly, its even easier. 3xdot menu on right top of cache page screen, Add Waypoint, lace the WP cords in and you can navigate to the new WP
I enjoy a quick and to the point multi. Long drawn out instructions and wordy cache descriptions turn me off and I go find something else. That's also something I keep in mind whenever I hide a multi. For me, they rank 4th on my "found its", behind traditionals, puzzles, and adventure labs. Multis come in at a meadly 2.14% of my overall finds.
I love multis but they do take time, so most of us have more trad finds. Multis come fourth in my list with 366 finds (3.63%), behind Trads, Mysteries and I have even found more Lab caches !
Awesome pointers for multis. Again... one of those things I wish I knew when we started out caching. Your editing is great but the audio levels are really low compared to other videos I've been watching. Check your audio levels when you are editing. Make sure they are at or around -6db at a minimum.
Have to admit I am one of those cachers scared of multis (also lazy? Don’t like the extra work, numbers etc) but if they looked like that one I would do more!! I think my number is def low- without looking at my stats, out of 1125 ish it’s prob 6? I’ll have to take a look. Not that many on the map in my area of New Jersey as well.
The Aussie Geocacher Seemyshell that would be good!!! I do hope to get to meet you and possibly take a road trip to the area you’ll be in to do some of yours once you settle and start hiding some.
Not gonna lie your videos are hard to follow with all the random cuts all over the place and loud background music. I still appreciate you helping us newbies though

Cheers mate, and I only hope this video helps the reputation of the multi, and helps newbies understand what they are. Cheers :)

Thats super interesting, I really enjoy the way people tackle Multi's in different ways.
KANGAROOOOOOS😍
That editing though 😜

Very true mate. I think that missing WP's over a missing GZ is more frustrating, as you have nothing from all your work. Good take on it.
Oh ho ho! Looky who has hit 1,000 subs! Well done mate. For me they take second place behind trads - 342/5077 finds (6.74%) for my Multi Count
Great work mate, not many have them that high on the counts. With Geoart making Mysteries more common
@@TheAussieGeocacherSeemyshell argh hadn't thought of those fake puzzles ;) Never done them myself!
Not to many new mutlis are being posted around here. Granted, some mystery caches are more technically multis than mystery. Keep up the good work down under. Glad you are doing well during the pandemic
Cheers, I do love me a nice multi... We are going well down here. :)
Nice. Multis not one of our favourites but we are giving them the benefit of the doubt.
So many people are not fans of the Multi, however in our State, so many win Geocache of the Month/Year.
BEDMAS :) Brackets Exponents Division Multiplication Addition Substraction. Can't believe I remembered that. :P
You could make a math puzzle for a multi where you leave off all the symbols and have to put them in the right place. Oooooh, heeeey...
lol
Hahahaha, Yes make one, Make one
Multis are 4th on my list of finds at 205 found from 4801 total, and are 2nd on my list of hides at 31 hidden out of 259 total.
That’s awesome mate, I enjoy a good multi, some people think they are more work just for 1 cache.
want to make a multi cache. We have an idea but do they have to be far apart from each mulit stage?
There is no distance rules between waypoints. So you can have it across the park or even in another state
The only distance rule, is that the WayPoints are not allowed to be within 161mtr of any other cache.
@@TheAussieGeocacherSeemyshell I have a geocache in my yard and I was going to archive it and make it the first way point for the mulit cache. Then in the other side of my yard I was going to put the cache container. Can I do that.
You should be able to, provided both points are more than 161mtr from an existing cache
@@TheAussieGeocacherSeemyshell can a little more than a 10th of a mile apart. We have a cache that is a 10th of a mile one direction and another in the other direction.

I truly believe that more people should give Multi's a chance. Haha
In case someone doesn’t get it
When you find out A,B,CD E.T.C there will be coordinates in the description page.if it has brackets in you must do the equation in it whic equals a number, for example (d-b) would mean the letter d and the letter b minused

Sure do.
Is the orange dot the first stage and where can I put and see the Coordinates?
Always read the description, but most times the orange pin is the first stage. Once you found the 2nd stage coords, you can add them as a waypoint in the app
The FOIL method! I haven't heard that term since algebra class in grade 9. I love a good multi because they usually are creative or take you to great places
Yes, Mate.... Me too, finally, someone else who likes a good multi. Plus it looks like the 'Foil' Method is an international learning tool. :)
Very nice video. Discovered you and your channel on @Lampay 's videos.
Ohhhhhh I love Mr Lampay...
I have never successfully completed a multi. The main stumbling block is once I have the co-ordinates what do I do with them. How do I use the app to direct me to the location?

I use both the official app and now Cachly. Been out with it once.

That's a really good point mate. Most have said they are too complicated or too much work for 1x Smiley.
I love multis but they do take time, so most of us have more trad finds. Multis come fourth in my list with 366 finds (3.63%), behind Trads, Mysteries and I have even found more Lab caches !
They are down on peoples lists, and I think you are right. Because it takes longer and more effort for one smiley than a Trad.
Awesome pointers for multis. Again... one of those things I wish I knew when we started out caching.
Your editing is great but the audio levels are really low compared to other videos I've been watching. Check your audio levels when you are editing. Make sure they are at or around -6db at a minimum.
I had issues with the audio in filming and spent hours trying to enhance it. Thanks for the feedback
@@TheAussieGeocacherSeemyshell oh no! That's the worst.
Keep up the good job with these introduction videos!
Love a good multi cache.
Yes Yes Yes, one of the selected few. haha
TY this helped alot
Anytime, and if you have any Geocaching Questions, feel free to ask on any of my social media. Happy to help where I can.

This is the current trend. I may have to change that when I get to Jersey. :)
The Aussie Geocacher Seemyshell that would be good!!! I do hope to get to meet you and possibly take a road trip to the area you’ll be in to do some of yours once you settle and start hiding some.
I need help working out coordinates
Which part are you unsure of? I can help, send me the GC code and I’ll take a look
Not gonna lie your videos are hard to follow with all the random cuts all over the place and loud background music. I still appreciate you helping us newbies though
Maybe start at 0:47 after the cinematic 'Intro' (plus these are 3yrs old, hahaha)
so confused
What questions do you have? Happy to help mate.
