I just retrieved a TB from the SD#4 Depot and plan on moving him towards his goal of Orem, Utah by November 19, the owners birthday, I'm going to add a copy of the passport to him, I really want to make sure he gets where he's supposed to be going.
On a 2nd note, there are always people who mess things up for others, so far I haven't seen it happen here in the Black Hills, not that at some point it won't, but people who take TB numbers from pictures and claim them aren't playing the sport as intended, when I started 4 months ago, I came into contact with several really neat TB's, but since I was new to the game I didn't take them until I felt I was good enough to make sure that I place them as quickly as possible, this is what I've gotten from these posts, TB's are supposed to travel as prescribed by their owners, and "we" the rest of the gang should comply with the owners wishes.
