Geocaching

A map of players' trails in a location-based game. A location-based game (or location-enabled game ) is one in which the game play somehow evolves and progresses via a player's location. Thus, location-based games almost always support some kind of localization technology, for example by using satellite positioning like GPS . http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Location-based_game

Shotgun base range increased, and skill point effect tuned down slightly to match the previous maximum range. New players have it easier; established players should feel no change. We continue our tour of Thursday Things this week with the Big Fish Fountain! Picture the soothing sounds of a babbling brook as you gaze upon its glorious gills. We’ve added a new combat readiness interface.
http://reason.com/archives/2005/08/29/games-people-play Fans across England are mourning the death of Jamie Kane, the scandal-tinged veteran of the boy band Boy*d Upp whose solo career was, to quote Wikipedia, "mildly successful." He was killed in a helicopter crash en route to a video shoot; the BBC's Top of the Pops website reported that his aircraft "experienced some technical difficulties on the flight, and crashed into the sea some miles from its destination." Some suspect foul play. Nearly everything in the previous paragraph is untrue. There never was a boy band called Boy*d Upp, there never was a pop star named Jamie Kane, he never had fans, he never faced a scandal, and he never died. The BBC did report his death, though, and an outline of his alleged career did surface briefly in Wikipedia , the popular online reference that relies on its readers for its content.
