    I had no idea this link was a secret. I just found this link at some other forum and I wanted to share it with you.

    I am sorry if I caused any problems. I guess it's too late to edit the first post and lock the thread now.... :o

    Nevada Geocoin Update :(

    in Trackables

    Posted

    I wonder how much different this is compared to buying a ticket for a sporting event that is held in March, like the NCAA final four.

    The only difference is that you receive the ticket right away, but for the coins you have to wait even 2 months.

    I guess we could sell tickets for the coins, then when we receive the paypal payment, reply with a "ticket", with coin to be delivered in the future.

    I don't think that would work. I guess the best bet would be not to mention the words "presale" or "preorder" anywhere, so that Paypal thinks the payments are for coins already minted. But then somebody can always complain to Paypal that he paid for something and still didn't get it. And that's probably what happned in this case.

    What if we paypal the monies back to you for the coins anyhow? Can they still lock your account since we willingly sent you the money? Besides look how long Alabama has had money and no coinage yet.

    You can't Paypal him money. If he has limited access, all incoming and outgoing payments are blocked.

    Doctors

     

      1. The number of doctors in Canada is 700,000

     

      2. Accidental deaths caused by physicians per year are 120,000

     

      3. Accidental deaths per physician is 17.14%

     

      Statistics courtesy of the Canadian Dept of Health & Human Services

     

      Guns:

     

      1. The number of guns owned in Canada is 80,000,000 (yes that's 80

    million)

     

      2. The number of accidental gun deaths per year, all age groups, is 1,500

     

      3. The number of accidental deaths per gun owner is 0.001875%

     

      Statistics courtesy of the RCMP

     

      So statistically, doctors are approximately 9,000 times more dangerous

    than gun owners.

     

      Remember, guns don't kill people, doctors do.

     

      FACT: NOT EVERYONE HAS A GUN, BUT ALMOST EVERYONE HAS AT LEAST ONE DOCTOR.

     

      Please alert your friends to this alarming threat. We must ban doctors

    before this gets completely out of hand!

     

      Out of concern for the public at large, I have withheld statistics on

    lawyers for fear the shock would cause people to panic and seek medical

    attention. Then we would be in real trouble.

    How can there be 80 million gun owners, if the population of Canada is only 32 million? :P

    Ftf Certificates

    in General geocaching topics

    Posted · Edited by Thrasher22

    I was thinking about making a nice laminated FTF certificate to place in my cache for the first cacher to keep. Has anyone of you done this before?

    I am thinking of inputs, how it should look like. If would be cool if it had some ornaments and looked like some official document, like a diploma or a savings bond or something....

    It would be nice if you could be rewarded for being the first and keep a memory at home, possibly frame it and put in on your wall :lol: .

    Screw Geocoins Geocoin

    Posted

    Received my screws today. I have to say this is the nicest geocoin in my small collection. :) Wow, they did a perfect job with the 3D design. And I love how thick it is and also the swerves on the side!

    At first I thought this was a funny coin, but it turned out seriosly good! ;) Thanks for the hard work!

    Men Who Cache Alone

    in General geocaching topics

    Posted · Edited by Thrasher22

    90 % of my cache finds I've done alone, but not because I prefer it that way, but because I don't have anyone to go out caching with. My girlfriend lives far away and I don't have any friends interested in this.

    Caching in the bushes in Northern Ontrario can be scary, I'm always afraid of bears, but luckily I haven't met one yet. :blink: I have a hunting knife in my backpack just in case. I don't own a gun and I don't plan on getting one, but it might be useful at some caching spots. :blink:

    Advice On Container Paint

    in General geocaching topics

    Posted

    I'm about to hide my first ammo can. I'm obviously not looking for camo paint here--I'm more interested in getting it into terrain that will make things challenging enough, and then hiding it someplace appropriate. I'm also a little paranoid about making sure it's properly marked as a geocache. Still, do you guys think this is WAY too far in the opposite direction? If so, I can repaint it:

    Thanks in advance,

    Leanne

    How did you spray paint the text on the can? Did you buy a tamplate or did you print and cut it out yourself?

    Geocoins May Come To An End

    in Trackables

    Posted · Edited by Thrasher22

    I don't want all of those icons...I want icons for caches, and coins, and TBs that I have actually found and touched...anything else is clutter.

     

    jamie

    I know, I don't care about icons of coins I have never held im my hands either. But that was just my suggestion how to solve this virtual TB problem.

    But on the other hand, I don't really see the difference between if there is a Moun10bike icon with a zero next to it in my profile or if this icon is not there at all. :laughing:

    Fake Loggin Travel Bugs

    I posted this in the geocoins forum and I want to post it here too:

    My solution to preventing vitrual logging just to get the icon in your profile is: change the profile appearance to a one that would show ALL the icons on both found/own sides of EVERYONE'S profile. Only the ones that you haven't found/owned yet, would have a zero next to them. :P
