Tooeygeotrashed Posted March 26, 2008 Share Posted March 26, 2008 Last call for nominations today - I'm closing this off a bit early as the thread has gone dead. Lots of cointests run in the last few days, any news on this one? Quote Link to comment
+DaFunkyFrogs Posted March 31, 2008 Share Posted March 31, 2008 Are there winners for this cointest yet? The suspense is killin' me........... Quote Link to comment
acadiahiker Posted March 31, 2008 Share Posted March 31, 2008 I thought SHARE WHAT YOU KNOW ABOUT NEW ZEALAND (sorry, I don't know how to do a link) was a super cointest. Put on by Team chelmo, May 12, 2007. It was educational and we all learned facts about New Zealand. Total of 582 posts for this cointest! Read the "how to post a link" and still can't get it. Drat! http://forums.Groundspeak.com/GC/index.php...=163059&hl= Quote Link to comment

acadiahiker Posted April 1, 2008 Share Posted April 1, 2008 Wow! I'm one of the winners! Thank you, Thank you! I see Forthferalz lives in Tasmania, and our high-speed ferry, THE CAT, connecting Bar Harbor, Maine to Nova Scotia, was built by InCat in Tasmania! Quote Link to comment
+forthferalz Posted April 2, 2008 Author Share Posted April 2, 2008 (edited) oh the jury was no help! Son likes BIG things and thinks that would make a cool mission for a coin to visit BIG things (aussies are obsessed with these structures) so in that vein I think Team Chelmo for what I know about NZ for sheer number of posts! wins the International ( it also fits well with what other son says makes a good contest - the size of the PRIZE lol ) and forum well that was hardest so many interesting ways of encouraging and inviting sharing think I nearly had to chuck a dice So honourable mentions for the out of the box thinking FSM for making an FSM Yemonyime's haiku Nochipra's xmas recipes and the winner of the silver is 007BigD for 007BigD's Geobun name that cacher cointest a cointest that was different, happy and a wonderful way to share something special in their lives. thanks to everyone who played! Please pm me your snailmail if you are a winner. You will get a prize in the mail or you can activate it and have the prize travel Australia Edited April 2, 2008 by forthferalz Quote Link to comment
+Team chelmo Posted April 2, 2008 Share Posted April 2, 2008 You go away for a while and this sort of thing happens It great to see everyone in here is the same friendly bunch they have always been (or mostly anyway ) Thanks to acadiahiker for the nomination and of course forthferalz for the cointest In case anyone was thinking I had fallen off the planet, I have actually started my own company and had a few hassles re that just recently (haven't even had time to go caching ), all seems to be honky dory now (fingers crossed). Hopefully things will settle in to a rountine and I can come back to visit you guys again before too much longer Keep on coining!!! Go the Crusaders!!! Thanks again to my Trans Tasman mate Quote Link to comment

+forthferalz Posted April 23, 2008 Author Share Posted April 23, 2008 (edited) I had a dreadful day in town - the worst was my bag with the prizes ( not handbag ) got 'lost' from a coffee shop I'll put an APB out on the radio tomorrow am and leave it a day but I'm not hopeful. Easy to replace with another except they were all engraved and there was a TB heading to NZ in chelmos bag waaah Edited April 23, 2008 by forthferalz Quote Link to comment
+forthferalz Posted April 25, 2008 Author Share Posted April 25, 2008 It's ok - my lucky day got the bag back! And it had a million dollars in it too. Quote Link to comment
