My opinion is set the geocoins free and let them self find there way. Maybe others can share there opinion also. Quote Link to comment
+Guinness70 Posted September 25, 2008 Share Posted September 25, 2008 (edited) mailed Amy this afternoon and already have a reply, just a few hours later... within 2 hours. she's a busy bee this Amy :-) Goedemorgen! We do not have a Belgium cacher yet! It would be great to place it in Tongeren! We will put you on the mailing list and hopefully one will arrive shortly. It will come activated and ready to go, your location of origin will be in the log. If you have a mission for it, let me know when you get the coin and we'll add that too! Looking forward to seeing it travel! Amy Hays ******************************************************************* Amy E.

+River Cacher Posted September 30, 2008 Share Posted September 30, 2008 I just sent out some nice emails to them and asked about Geo.Error getting a coin so I hope they look into it.

+River Cacher Posted September 30, 2008 Share Posted September 30, 2008 (edited) This is my email I recieved back from Amy today. Mike I believe that he also gave me his address for the coins, we had many, many requests so they are all going out at a bit of a different rate as we are able to get them off. Hopefully they will all ship by the end of the week to their addy's and will begin to show up for everyone. However, if you have his last name handy I can look it up quickly. The secretaries have sorted them by last name, not by request date so that they could work with them easier. Amy If you would like I could respond with your last name? To make sure you are on the list or you can make sure you ask Amy via your last name. I would hope that everyone else does not contact her to see if there last name is on there. Please let GeoError find out about HER'S and not flood Amy with emails. Thank You and Good Luck on getting a Coin. Edited September 30, 2008 by River Cacher Quote Link to comment

And you can pm or e-mail me so i can check if you have the right e-mail address. I hope i have help you. Quote Link to comment
+Geo.Error Posted October 2, 2008 Author Share Posted October 2, 2008 (edited) I've got a e-mail from Amy, this is what she write to me. I thought it might be easiest to contact you and pass on a message to your friends who are receiving geocoins 1.) We are THRILLED to have the wonderful response! We are in a national meeting and we have discussed the response so much 2.) The coins will be coming via North Dakota State University so they may be a little slower getting out than regular mail 3.) We would be happy to change the name (as long as Map@Syst remains in the there somewhere) and the mission when you receive a coin 4.) If you have not received a confirmation from me, I'm a little behind this week and will keep adding people in. They will get an email confirm from me (or another specialist) soon. Thanks Again!

+res2100 Posted October 17, 2008 Share Posted October 17, 2008 I got our coins and they are great. We were sent some for distribution to those that did my latest 5/5 event. Just curious is anyone knows what the activation codes are for them or where to get the activation code. The coins weren't activated. Quote Link to comment
ELTADA Posted October 17, 2008 Share Posted October 17, 2008 I don't know the answer to that. The one I received is in the owner's name and I am just dropping it in a cache on their behalf...I wasn't aware that some were sent out that aren't activated. Quote Link to comment

You are sent the coin - its not your's and you are not supposed to keep it You receive it , discover it and then release it to travel everyone gets a chance to discover it and move it on spreading the word of map@syst Quote Link to comment
