As of yet I have not been able to get a FTF (First to Find) on a cache.
Mainly due to three reasons:
1. People working closer to my home location where I get notifications.
2. Technology.
3. The same cachers always cleaning up on the FTF's and not giving anyone else a chance.
As technology has increased and given easy access to emails and Geocaching Applications it has now become even more of a race to complete a FTF.
A cache that I had published yesterday only took 22mins after being published for the FTF to go. That included the cacher parking up and then walking to the cache. According to the logs there were 2 people at the cache at the same time and they got a joint FTF.
It would therefore seem that the FTF's are only availble to an elite few who match the two reasons (and a few that match all three) and do not want to give anyone else a chance to get at least 1 FTF.
