| Reviewer | Geocaching Term A reviewer is a volunteer who works for Groundspeak by reviewing caches for publication on Geocaching.com. The reviewer works with a set of tools (maps, etc.), the Groundspeak Geocaching Placement Guidelines and his or her own knowledge of the game to determine whether or not a geocache is able to be published on the website. Reviewers are also sometimes called "Approvers," but this title doesn't adequetly describe the service they provide. |
| RJTB | Geocaching Term/Abbreviation "Red Jeep Travel Bug." These are small die cast yellow jeeps that were released as part of a Jeep promotion in 2007. See also "Travel Bug," "YJTB," "WJTB," and "GJTB." |
| ROT13 | Technical/Logging Term  Abbreviation for "Rotate by 13 Places." Also sometimes written as "ROT-13." It is the cypher code which hints on cache pages are encrypted with. In ROT13 the alphabet is rotated by 13 letters so A=N, B=O, C=P, and vise versa.
When hiding a cache, the hint is automatically encrypted for you. You do not need to write it out in ROT13. When logging a cache the option to encrypt your log entry is available. However, any information placed in brackets [like this] will be left unencrypted. |
The geocaching glossary is always growing and developing just as the game is. One feature of the Geocacher University glossary is that--in addition to searching terms in this page--you will find definitions within the articles and content of the site. Simply put your mouse over the linked terms (identified with this question mark 
) and the definition will pop-up.
