A New Pay it Forward Mission!

This sounds like fun, but would I need random address'. How do I get them. Count me in either way!

When it comes to you, you could always come to this thread a pick someone and send them a PM for their address. That's what I did to get it started! PLUS I have seen a lot of folks from outside the US posting they want it, so there's an extra 3 entries right there!!!

I'm sending it to Team Macha to get it started!

OK, sound easy enough. You guys have some really cool ideas in here! Glad I started looking at these! :drama:

January 26, 2007

Im willing, great idea

January 26, 2007

This could be fun! We'd be willing to take part, and we've even got a couple of ideas of people to send to...

I wish I had a handful of these coins, it would make this mission so much more fun!

January 26, 2007

I wanna play! This is so a cool idea! A nice way to get other coins moving, also. Maybe coins some of us haven't seen yet!

Well the coin went out today, watch for a silver mailer Team Macha! I really wish I had more of these coins. I'm going to see if there might be a way to engrave the coin below and do the same thing with it.

If it can be done, and well, I'll send the hitchhiker out with the same mission.

January 29, 2007

I would LOVE to participate in this adventure... I have several coins of my own that are willing to join the ride!!!

I am anxiously awaiting news of it's arrival to Team Macha!

I received two of these in the mail, one for the person I am giving it to and another one for myself. While I appreciate the generosity I will not be activating it and would like to donate it to your cause UOTrackers. If you would like it for your plan please email me.

January 30, 2007

I got the coin! But I am not sure if I get to keep the Hiker coin for myself or I just add my own so there will be three? It is such a hard decision on who I should send the coin to. I hate picking. I guess I'll have to though so one of you will be lucky and get the coin. Thanks again UOTrackers!

January 30, 2007

I have decided to whom I will send the coin. I just looked at everyone who posted in this topic thus far and chose the person with the most forum posts. So if you want to know who that is you will have to look. That was the fairest way I could think of to pick who I would send it to. I will try and get the coin sent on it's way by tomorrow.

January 30, 2007

I have a questoin. I noticed in another thread someone said they searched the wall in fron t of their house and found one. What did he mean by that? I thought this was just getting mailed? :laughing:

btw I know who he sent it to!

I think you keep the unactivated coin and then add your own unactivated coin to the package. :laughing:

Yep, that's the way I understand it too--- you keep the unactivated coin that comes with it, and then send the PIF coin to someone else along with a different unactivated coin.

We have been away camping for a week and only just got the chance to see what has been happening here in the forums...

What a fantastic idea this is :laughing:

Eep! I thought I had the directions pretty clear, please PM me to tell me if/where they get confusing. You get to KEEP the Hitch hiker so long as you replace it with a new unactivated coin. Like the mission says you pay it forward, I pay'd a coin forward to you to keep, now you do the same to another!

I'll get my database set up tomorrow to keep track of your entries for the Coin Purse Prize!

No this is something different. A Cacher (or group of cachers?) by the name ofPay_It_Forward had a special coin minted, then created a thread requesting nominations for this coin to be awarded to. I suspect the message your referring to is a coin that went to a nominee. I received my coin, that I sent out on it's Mission because I volunteered to hide 2 coins for nominee's. Now if the weather and my schedule would just get their acts together I could go hide the coins I promised to!

MORE Great News!!!

January 30, 2007

That's definately the "Pay it forward" spirit in action!

I received a Pay it Forward coin a little while ago and it is already on its way somehwere having been picked up just after I cached it. I would love to get the chance to pass on another one. :lol:

Just a quick questions---Since the pay it forward coin that you receive is a gift does the coin you send out have to be trackable or can you send out a nontrackable when you mail it on to the next cacher?

The Mission is to Pay it Forward, so I don't think it matters if it is trackable or not, so long as if it is, it hasn't been activated. I think that's what you asked!

1.7k · February 1, 2007

I'd love to be part of this also!

Yep that's exactly what I wanted to know!!! Now hopefully one day it will land in my mailbox!!

bump from the depths...any update on where this coin has travelled so far?

3.1k · February 7, 2007

Sorry for not updating but yes I have gotten the coin on Saturday.

Thanks for picking me Team Macha! :huh:

Be on the look for it to come to a mail box near you....I am not saying who I am mailing it to....I am not even telling the person that is about to get it....it will just show up in their mailbox as a surprise!

1.7k · February 7, 2007

Oh boy! I can't wait to see where it goes and who it visits! Ya'll be sure to leave me some "VIVID" stories in the logs!!! I loved reading the Geocoin Fairy logs, so this is my chance!!! And pictures don't forget pictures!!! Bella loves pointing out noses now that she knows what they are!

February 7, 2007

I love the concept of this mission. Is it to late to become involved?

February 7, 2007

Oh good I'm glad it arrived to you safely, Parents of Sam.

1.7k · February 7, 2007

I don't think so, this coin doesn't have to return to me until January 1st, and even though only 2 people have received it so far, it looks like they are coming back to this thread to pick someone. I should be receiving a couple more in the future which will also be sent out on the same mission!

February 7, 2007

Jen, this is such an awesome project!

I too would love to participate in this. :huh:

Great! Count me in then if so inclined. I would love to participate. <_<

If I may, I would like to participate.

Us too... we want to be included in "The Project" (Sounds pretty covert, eh?)

6.4k · February 8, 2007

Me too, I want in even though I don't have near as many post as most <_<

February 10, 2007

This is a really great idea.

After seeing what happened to PIF in this thread I'm particularly keen to be involved.

So if anyone wants a recipient in Oz send me a PM or email. :lol:

February 10, 2007

This sounds awesome. It's like a moving cache with one trade item-an unactivated coin. And the moving cache is 'trackable' because of the activated coin inside. I'd love to recieve this!

1.7k · February 10, 2007

So far I know of 2 new Pay it Forward coins on their way to me. 1 from LadeBear68 and 1 from Pay it Forward him/herself. One of those will go right out to another country, remember you get 5 points if you send it to a different county than your own! The other one will go...well I'm not sure where yet, we'll see when they arrive! I'll of course post them here once they are activated for anyone who wants to watch them!

February 10, 2007

I'd like to participate, too!

February 10, 2007

Me, too. Me, too!

I have so many unactivated coins!

From the back row wildly jumping up and down waving his hands........PICK ME! PICK ME! <_<

1.2k · February 11, 2007

<_< What a great idea. Maybe one day (many, many, many days I suspect) we might get to see it down here in the South Pacific.

May it travel well, blessing everyone along the way.

And, maybe the idea could catch on - I would love to see several projects like this worldwide!

Happy caching & coin hunting everyone!

1.7k · February 11, 2007

So far I only have 3 pay it forward coins (2 on their way to me currently) but I've got some cache hikers that are my Artist Edition ones. I think I will see about getting them engraved, it will depend greatly on that cost whether or not I can send them out with the same mission. I would love for this mission to catch on! I think it would be so neat to get a totally unexpected package in the mail! Plus when you send it out to another unsuspecting person you get the joy of hearing about the coin they received! I like making people smile...must be why I am also a massage therapist!

1.7k · February 13, 2007

I received another pay it forward coin today!!! It will be activated and packaged up this weekend! This one whispers! Really it told me it wanted to see the world, and it's not afraid to travel far and wide so I think this one will be headed across the pond!!!

February 13, 2007

. . . I think this one will be headed across the pond!!!

Don't worry about that little puddle to your east!

Send it across the big "Peaceful" one to your west! :rolleyes: :blink:

A New Pay it Forward Mission!
