BetaTester: (langy) That poor unfortunate fool (or group of fools) that go out and try to be FTF a new multicache that involve lots of tricky maths. This usually involves contact with the hider, arguments, the exchange of photographic evidence and trundling out BODMAS* (or its equivalent).

Blind Freddies: (Rabbitto) Person who discovers that the arrow on the GPS is pointing 500m into the sea then wades straight out without first re-checking the co-ordinates or the clue which says "Under a Bush"

Blitzencaching: (geof) See Maccamob or finding more than 5 caches a day.

Broken Arrow: (Rabbitto) Novice cacher. They follow the arrow to within 10m of GZ then do the "broken arrow" dance as they try to find that elusive last few metres. Usually amusing to Walking GPSers but only the first couple of times.
