+dorkfish Posted October 29, 2007 Author Share Posted October 29, 2007 I've received a few questions and comments, please see the answers below. I don't have very many geocoins in my collection but I'd still like to participate in the missions. I'm worried someone will be unhappy with the coins I have available to mail out. Can I still participate? - Absolutely. I'm sure there are other people in the same situation. When you email me with your information, be sure to let me know. I'll make a special list of those like you and match you up together. I only have one or two geocoins in my collection that I can mail out. I don't have the funds to purchase more. Can I still participate? - Sure, just let me know in your email. Can children who participate be assigned to other children? - That's a great idea. I've had some emails from individuals who's children are taking on Secret Geocoin Santa missions. I'll make up a special spreadsheet with them and match them up amongst each other. When you send out your emails please be sure to let me know these are children and their ages. There are also some individuals who's pets are taking on Secret Geocoin Santa missions. If I get enough response, I'll create a special spreadsheet just for pets too. If your pet would like to participate, please let me know. I'll match them up with each other. I'll post the answers to anymore questions that I receive as they come in. Thanks Quote Link to comment

SCYoli Posted October 29, 2007 Share Posted October 29, 2007 It's a tad bit early, last year's Secret Mission started December 12th, - you must be a registered user in these forums with some history of postings. I think that's it. If I left off any information or if my above description is confusing please let me know. Thanks for letting me host this year's Secret Geocoin Santa Missions!!!! I have a question and this may be really really stupid but do you have to be a premium member? And what type of posting history? I have posted a bit but may not be as much of a regular as others. Just wondering, this sound like fun. Thanks! Quote Link to comment

In previous mssions 30 -50 posts were mentioned so you are well over that! Yes it is a LOT of fun. Part of the joy for me is trying to get something that the person really wants so it is VERY helpful to have a seeking list somewhere. Send her an email and then the fun will begin!!
