The Geocoin Secret Agent

1k · July 9, 2008

MISSION # 9:[/b] This mission requires the use of a digital camera. Please post here (The first 3 cachers to post win). Post a picture of yourself (tomorrow - July 8 2008) in a public place, with muggles around, holding a sign that announces you are a geocacher. The sign MUST have the date 7-8-08 on it to be a valid mission photo. Good luck Agents. Remember, the first 3 posted here are the winners of a V2 GSA geocoin.

"Yes, These can be taken just after midnight, however remember the criteria"

I will personally monitor this mission and disqualify any posts that do not meet the criteria.

Obviously with the number of emails this is confusing some. MODIFIED MISSION: I will conduct multiple missions with this same objective listed above however I will break it down to time zones:

MISSION 9 A: This mission is the same as MISSION # 9 listed above. It will be limited to cachers in the Pacific and Mountain Time Zones. Since there will be multiple missions I will only send out one V2 per sub-mission. This mission starts tonight at midnight Mountain Time. tomorrow I will start Mission 9 B.

Note to self Read the complete post before rushing out the door

Congrats to the winners

Are all the agents deciding to keep thier cover and not expose themselves? I think we need the Goofy Cacher to help out a bit here!! LOL

July 9, 2008

It's almost midnight here and all my little agents to be should be in bed BUT NO - ones sitting here watching these posts to see who the newest agent will be. Her mission won't be completed until after midnight.

MISSION 9 B COMPLETE: WINNERS NOTIFIED VIA EMAIL

July 9, 2008

MISSION 9 C: This mission is open ONLY to those cachers in the EASTERN AND ATLANTIC TIME ZONES. One post per caching family please. Please keep your photographs limited to no larger than 640 x 640 pixels.

Starting now and ending midnight tomorrow (7-9-08) EST. Post a picture of yourself in a public place with at least 2 non-cachers in the photograph. Hold a sign that indicates you are a geocacher with today's date. The photograph has to be clear enough to read the information on the sign. A small group of agents will review the photos and select a winner. The criteria is simple: Announce you are a cacher and be creative. The more outrageous the photo the better your chances. To the selected winner: A V2 trackable GSA coin.

Please no previous winners.

This is the mission if you choose to accept it.

July 9, 2008

We got an e-mail - We're the newest agents.

Thanks so much for providing this mission that the kids had fun with. Daughter was sitting right here. Her mission wasn't going to be over until she saw who the winner was. While my youngest just wanted to stand on his head in a picture, so his mission was over pretty quickly.

Again Thank you so much. I'll be waiting for my next assignment.

CONGRATS to the newest agents...........

July 9, 2008

Well, as an eager agent trainee I wanted to find some murder, mystery & mayhem for this particular mission. I had heard rumor of some trouble down at one of the local bars in town, so I thought I would go down after work this morning to check it out. Apparently one of the barmaids had been watering down the drinks, and the owner would have no part of that!

I arrived just in time to witness the bloodshed that would soon follow first hand.....

Note the look in her bloodthirsty eyes and she stands over her victim!

She was rather handy with that knife!

Report from secret agent #037

Got a message today it said.....

"The local post office had been under attack....Suspect was know only as The Bandit this message will self distruct"

So off I went to the local post office.... When I arrived letters and packages were thrown about What a mess!!!! As I questioned the postal works they said there were not packages missing...The only thing they noticed was a peice of cake had been eatin that was left from the day before....hmmmmmm a hungry bandit? I followed the crumb trail that lead to out side and around the corner under the step....When I looked under all I could see was two beady eyes looking back at me....He was wearing a mask, had four legs and a bushy tail....Some how the bandit had snuck inside before the post office closed the day before....The bandit was quicky apprehend and takin away....

The postal workers were very grateful and thanked me for my help....

CASE CLOSE

I read my e-mail this morning and found out that I too am now a secret agent. Been at work for 12 hours waiting to reply. It was killing me. Now it will kill me until I see the prize in the mail box. Thanks GSA. This Cointest sure was fun. Agent Koolbrez out!

MMMMNNNN...... Looks like the secret agent or one of his jr. agents has been sent by the US government to inspect all the produce for sallmonella poisoning in all the U.S. grocery stores? It's nice to know he is keeping surveillance on our food and keeping away all the sallmonella poisoning bad guys. Thanks Secret Agent!

LOL, this was fun! You shoulda seen the looks we got, lol. There is another shot that is really funny but unfortunately she was the only muggle in the shot otherwise I woulda used that one. I'll post the other pics just for fun after midnight to be fair. We even had the manager of the store come up to us and ask what we were doing

Agent #094 and I awoke at 5:20am to begin our mission. This was a two fold mission, take pictures and arriving at our final destination.

Starting in Seneca, SC, we then drove non-stop to Chapel Hill, NC. Many pictures were taken at a giant sun dial and the Morehead Planatarium and later dismissed for submission.

Several Rest Stops followed in NC and VA. More pictures were taken, but again dismissed.

Final Destination was Washington D.C. Secret Agent #094 would attempt to get as close to the White House as possible. Unfortunately, tall gates, armed guards, and a dog or two prevented a closer view at this time....maybe next year!

Mission 9C:

Outside the White House, Agent #094 and myself stood with our sign in the most public place I could think of. Lots of tourists were around, but it was harder than I thought to snap a pictures with Muggles.

I had a lot of fun picking places to be seen at and I met some really nice folks in the process.

Thanks for the fun mission!

Nice picture Nochipra I bet you got some good long looks from the muggles dressed like that

my picture in hopes of a chance at a new GSA coin. I put the coords. on the paper as extra credit.

Yahooooooo! It's official we won! Thank you so much Secret Agent! Now as promised I'll tell you what happened and show the rest of the pics. It really is funny:) We went into the Food Lion with Chip's trench coat and sign in the basket and I was carrying the video camer (it also takes pictures and is the only descent camera we have right now). We got over to the produce and Chip put on his coat and trying to pose in front of the tomatoes while I'm making him move this way and that trying to get muggles in the shot. We got several weird looks just doing that. I wasn't sure how good the pictures were so we decided to go down some isles to see if we could get more muggles in the shots but the store was not too busy.

This shot is my favorite and would have been the one we submitted if there had been another muggle in it. I know she had to be the one to go tell her manager that there was a big guy in a trench coat and a girl in a wheelchair running around the store looking suspicous. Because, about a min or two later she comes down the isle looking confused and I had to explain we were doing this for a competition and showed her the sign. She just laughed and went about her business.

Here are the other shots I took trying to get everything required, a focused sign, muggles and what he was pointing at which was difficult to get all 3.

This was just one we took after he took off the trench coat.

Thanks again Secret Agent! This was really fun:)

Congrats Wolf-Pack and all the other new agents!

Yeah, Chip was burning up in that coat. He kept saying "Hurry up and take the picture!" LOL

But it was worth it for that beautiful new coin At least where I was sitting, but I didn't have to wear the coat

Congrats to al new secret agent , i am proud at you all and you all make me smile

I am a secret agent.

I am an undercover spy.

I am almost the world's best detective.{ sorry Boss, you are the best ]

I am the perfect private eye.

I am a Pinkerton, a gumshoe,

I am a snoop and I am a sleuth.

I am unrivaled at detecting { sorry all secret agents]

and uncovering the truth.

I have eyesight like an eagle.

I can hear like a bat.

I can out-smell any bloodhound. [ yep Error smells, don't tell him i said that ]

i am as stealthy as a cat.

I can locate nearly anything

with elementary ease.

But no matter how i looks and look

I can't find my keys!

Got some intell from this unknown secret author--Kenn Nesbitt

Thanks The Geocoin Secret Agent , you are a very good boss

July 10, 2008

The Geocoin Secret Agent must be planning a major strike against Dr. Evil's plans. A great group of new secret agents are being prepared to protect the innocent or is there a new enemy lurking on the horizon? We'll be waiting for our next assignment.

Such fun!! THANKS for the smiles, I needed these!! Would have tried for a pic myself but the only place I visited in the last few was the big "H" to see my dad. I didn't think it an appropriate location for this!!

Keep the fun coming, it's GREAT!!

Great pictures and stories!!! Congratulations to all the new agents!!

July 10, 2008

WOW! Congrats to all the winners! It figures that the night I had to work on the car is the night there are multiple winners. Maybe next time. At least I got the car fixed.

I like the pictures from Nochipra. You're lucky they didn't call the cops on you.

Barry and Valarie of sweetlife

July 10, 2008

WOW am I glad our timezone was earlier - the competition is getting more and more creative but I guess it need to with Dr. Evil getting more and more crafty.

A note to the European crew. Dr. Evil is getting more and more diabolical be prepared to outwit him. This coin is worth it.

July 10, 2008

I'm brushing up on my detective skills to be ready for the next mission....got my cane with a hidden sword, daisy lapel pin that is really a camera, and a secret message recorder in my wristwatch.....
