  1. THE LAMEST IS ...

     

    All the great posts were narrowed down to three finalists(post #12-Six Little Spookies, #30-labrat_wr, and #35-mamoreb). Voting took place with my family and friends, both geocachers and muggles. AND THE WINNER IS MAMOREB.

     

    Thanks to all that entered. Here is the winning entry.

     

    "I really need this coin for comfort. The sun is shining brightly outside, everyone is out having a good time. Unfortunately, I already have a bad allergy day. My head is swollen like a marshmallow, I want to scratch my eyes out, etc. There's no way I could get near all that grass outdoors.

     

    Now, if only I had a cat or a dog to play with and cuddle with on this boring indoor day... But I'm allergic to those too! I could probably get some fish, but you know that it is very hard to cuddle with fish. A GEOCOIN, on the other hand! Nice textures to stroke, cheerful colours, cooling material - the perfect pet for an allergic!

     

    Now, send me my new pet quickly, before the grass stops blooming! :) "

     

    Congratulations mamoreb!!!!

  2. I just finished watching all the Star Wars adventures in one sitting. I see light sabers in my sleep. When my dog yawns I think of Chewie. Next, I will start on the adventures of Harry Potter this weekend before I see the last one.

     

    Who would win in a battle, Luke with his light saber, Jedi mind tricks, and the Force or Harry with his wand and magic. Just wondering...

  3. This cointest is the result of me being one of the three winning entries in the "What would you do?" cointest, where I won one of EyeD10T's awesome “Home is Where the Cache Is”, Series 2 geocoins.

     

    One of the terms for winning the Cointest, is that we would actually run our cointest idea. So, here it is! The Really Lame Story Cointest.

     

    I would like to see a cointest where people come up with a really really lame reason(s) or story why they need to have this geocoin.

     

    For example, I just got divorced and my ex-wife took half my geocoin collection. I am trying to replenish my stock. OR... I was abducted by aliens when I was out geocaching in the woods. After they were done probing me they sent me back to earth but they kept my backpack that had all my geocoins in it.

     

    The Rules:

     

    This cointest will run from July 8, 2011 to July 31, 2011 at 6am PST. The winner of the cointest will receive the second “Home is Where the Cache Is” geocoin, in gold finish, that EyeD10T sent me to run the cointest,

     

    Only two entries per account name, please. Let's not be greedy. :D

     

    My family, some work friends, and I will judge the entries.

     

    No whining about the story I pick. My tastes and sense of humor may not be the same as yours. You’re just winning a Geocoin not $1,000. :lol:

     

    Again, Thanks EyeD190T for the award. This is my first attempt at running a cointest. Please let me know if I am missing anything. Good Luck and be creative!

  4. I would like to see a cointest where people come up with a really really lame reason(s) why they need to have this geocoin.

After they were done probing me they sent me back to earth but they kept my backpack that had all my geocoins in it.

     

    I would pick the top five stories then have everyone on line vote once to get the winning story. :D

  5. I love the Egyptian coin. I have not seen any around. Are they still avaiable? I would love to get one of those.

     

    I see that there is a Copper one and a Gold one currently on eBay. Buy It Now for $25 and $29, respectively. They are not mine. I got this one from someone selling off some coins on this forum. They are nice. :ninja:
