Cool, hey I'm happy to be on either team B)

 

Since you have this East/West/North/South thing set up, does that mean that instead of picking a person off the list, we are supposed to send it to the next person on the list? Doesn't really matter to me, just want the clarification.

 

Good question. Nope, you don't have to send it to the next person on the list. Perhaps someone from each team can figure out the send order to maximize your mailing miles. Or, you can be totally random about your mailings. LOL! I'm excited, either way.

 

I know who I will send to first.

Now to pick out the coins ;)

Hmm, are we racing on speed back to Chick? I would think that instead of miles there isn't any guarantee the max miles are the same (that it could get expensive for some people to send things way far)

 

and sure, I've got an extra coin that I won't cry too much if I lose.

 

NOT THAT TEAM VICTORY IS GOING TO LOSE!

Even better that gardengorilla is in Australia. The distance to Australia will help offset the distance to Sweden. Those seem to be the farthest mailing points from the US.

 

Yes, it is a race to get the last two coins and the tracking coin, back to me in South Carolina via USPS.

Just so that I am clear on the race for mileage...when we "discover" the coin, we have to grab it, and then dip it into a local cache in order to set its marker and get its miles. Is that correct?

ha ha ha.... <evil laugh>

 

Where will the mission start?? I mailed off two packages today. One to a Team Victory member and the other package to a Team Winners member.

 

Are they both in the same country?? I wonder.

I did have a strategy in my mailing. Y'all make not recognize it.. but it's there.

 

Clarification... This mission / cointest is not about accumulating miles. The mission/cointest is to see which team can get the package BACK to me first. I have included the guidelines in a printout sent along with the missions. :ph34r:

 

There is a "traveling" coin included with the mission. TB2EADC and TB2EAZ2

When you receive the package, you are to log the "traveling" coin as a found. Grabbing it from the hands of the previous person. This way, we KNOW that you have the mission IN HAND and that it passed your way.

 

Pick or Pass... Which coin from the mission will you choose? Which will you pass on?

 

HAVE FUN!

How exciting!!

Just to make sure I got it right,

The mission includes 1 activated travlecoin for us to log and 2 unactivated coins to choose one from and add another to. So then we send 3 coins around? Is it supposed to be sent any items along with the mission? If it is, then what to send?

 

Hope for answer.

 

Thanks for doing this.

That's correct and you don't need to add anything else :ph34r:

 

How about having a picture of the activated coin with us, a member of our family or just sitting there pretty in our house? It would be fun :ph34r:

Attention Team Victory:

 

I'm scheming a fast path.. I need to know one thing. Who's willing to send the package to Sweden? I've got most everything else figured out for the PATH TO VICTORY!

 

I wouldn't mind sending it but Canada to Sweden seems to take forever so, it better be someone fron the States :ph34r:

 

GO! TEAM VICTORY GO! :ph34r:

So we aren't supposed to dip the activated coin into a cache for miles, but only log discoveries and grab it from the previous person?

I am sooo excited to watch this mission. Thanks to all particpants!

 

You are right, Team Victory, Sweden is a long way! Team Winners has to mail to and from Australia, though. That should somehow equal out the mail lag for the two teams (or so I thought :ph34r: ).

 

Sgt Mikal > Oh geeze... did things just get more complicated for me? If the coin isn't "dipped" into a local cache, then miles won't show? We won't log miles for just passing it from hand to hand? It has to be actually placed in a cache to log miles? What do y'all think? It would be nice to log the miles. I wanted everyone to discover the "travelers" and to use them as verification that the mission went "through" the person... (trying to stay a step ahead of you guys.. not that you would do it, but you could conceivably skip people on the mission... just how badly do you want to win? LOL! :ph34r:

 

We could drop the coin and pick it up as we do for the 52 Pick Up Mission. I plan on drawing from both teams to win the travelers at the end of the mission. Do y'all mind dipping in local caches?

Opalsns

 

LOL! Good guess, Opal... but no. I did not dip the coins in Pine Cone Cache. That one is in the town where I grew up. I sent the missions to peeps I have never sent things to before. :tongue:
