    Default Madison Blue Cookies

    To whomever took my cookies from Madison Blue: I would like them back, please. To the team we met on our exit at Rocky Horror:......yeah.

    At least my safety bottle was still there. Cave diving sure ain't like it used to be.

    How long did you leave the cookies there? Frankly, if they were there for several days, most divers would assume they had been abandoned.

    Get blocked by people coming into rocky horror? That seems to be a recurring theme lately based on reports. Its like people see the clipbord but say f it.

    Good option, but still doesnt fix the issue of people being dumbasses and not following the clearly marked slate. You?d think at this level of diving people would be smarter. Not saying I?m not a dumbass cause I am. But I?m at least able to read a friggin sign.

    What happened at Rocky Horror? Hoping to dive there Thursday, how were conditions and where'd you leave your cookies?

    The clipboard is great,but things like that left over time tend to get ignored. I would always write a note and clothes pin it to the line. It would be something unique and different, and people would stop and take notice.

    The cookies were on an alternate way to Courtyard. They were there longer than they should have been, but I was surprised to find them missing given their location. They were a bit unique and I really would like them back.

    The incident at Rocky Horror wasn't life threatening, but just a blatant disregard for others. The other team silted the tunnel pretty good on their turn around. I hope it cleared by the time they exited, because they didn't have a jump reel, either.

    Courtesy to others within the cave seems to be quickly disappearing.

    And what's with that huge drag trail through Potters?

    We, team of 3, were there the other day. Other two divers that were with me were CCR. We stopped and turned at the clipboard going into Potters Delight. The clipboard was intact and clearly visible. Didn?t notice any cookies but I tend to ignore them as I don?t use cookies, only my own line arrows. I have noticed this week that there is a large group from up north that have been silting out every system they visit. Oh well, they will be gone in a few days and things will get back to normal.
