Just in case you haven't figured it out (it's fairly obvious), the cache
karma is just a 1:20 ratio, so you would have to hide 4 to break even.
The first 20 are a given, since you can't really expect someone to hide a
cache right away just to get a positive karma.

Ive been thinking about have a user setable karma so that you can quickly
see if you are living up to your own standards, and not just ours , but I
have no way of telling if a team is really who they say they are, so there
probably won't be anything like that anytime soon, since I would have to
do something like ask for your geocaching.com password then then check to
see if it successfully logs you in, but then I would end up with everyones
password that chooses to participate and thats information I don't want.
I really wouldn't want the possibility of any fingers pointed at Team
Snaptek if anything ever get screwed up on the official site.  I suppose
that I could make a cache on the official site and have some sort of
unique code key that you could put into a found entry, and so all teams
that get an account on the snaptek site and have the correct code key put
in will be properly authenticated....  that might be cool!
