Sterni2009's second Cointest

[+sterni2009]

Ok, somebody here in the forums once made a cointest like that and I liked the idea, so today I will ask the question: What would you do for getting the coin?

 

It is an unactivated Carousel Lion - Polished Gold / Brown Lion Coin.

 

You can enter as many times as you like. The cointest will end in 8 days: Saturday May, 8th at 12 AM forum time (you can see the forum time down at the end of the page), what means 10 PM MEST.

 

Only rule: If you will be picked as the winner, you will have to do what you wrote to do for getting the coin.

 

The suggestion I like most will win.

 

Have fun!!!

Let's see..... What I would do for the coin.....

 

Well... since the coin is a lion.... I would give a warm hug and a kiss to a lion with the first chance!!! NO KIDING!!!

 

Oh.. I forgot to mention that my girlfriend's was born in August so.... she is a leo... (Lion)!

I'd eat a Klondike Bar!

I'd ask you to release the coin in your next cache find - so that it can make it's way to me via caches - thereby making it cheaper and less carbon - plus I'd get a nice surprise in a few weeks/months/years when the coin eventually gets to me - whereever I am in the world then.

[+goosefraba1]

I would create a display for my geocoins in the house that we are looking to buy

[+wolfslady]

I would find a family who have never been geocaching and take them out to show them what it's all about. I think I'll do that even if I don't win.

[tommytrojan360]

I will hide a geocache named, "Thanks Sterni2009!" and put the coin in there to start out it's journey, then have it's goal as to reach Sterni2009 in Bergstraße, Germany!

[+GATOULIS]

Ok.. my next post about it....

 

I do not know if I will do anything but... be sure I will buy sweets to celebrate the day the cointest ends!

Well.. not for the coin but.... for my father's birthday!! On May 8th he will close 73 years of life! WOW!

 

I will probably take baklava, or galaktoboureko (a great sweet with cream), or both... /he doesn't want a cake so..

Hmm.... I might take pastry with chocolate.... mmmmmmm......

hmmmm yum yum. very similar to arabian (lebenese) sweets we get here in abu dhabi too)

 

I'll do the same - and invite a few cachers for coffee and sweets and post photos.

 

We'll call the coin the friendship coin

[+sterni2009]

Oh, there are already some beautiful suggestions

[+ADTCacheur]

Dance naked in front of my boss as I quit my job

Fine print: I don't have a job or a boss

[+ADTCacheur]

I would make it a nice house/pouch at my local LYS's K&C (with the design of your choice [within reason])

[+GATOULIS]

Fine print: I don't have a job or a boss

 

You do not have a job... I understand you my friend...

 

I was hoping that this season I will be back as a guard in a museum or in an archeological area, but... today when the result came, I was not in the lucky ones! with the bad condition Greece is right now... I do not know what to do!

Today is a bad day for me...

 

So...What I would do for the coin??? I would smile! Simple and honest!

[+SgtMikal]

I will pray for the giver of the prize to receive suitable replacements quickly.

[+usyoopers]

I would force the other yooper (kicking and screaming) to take me out fishing, hiking and caching for Mothers Day!

[+sterni2009]

Only one day left for entering

[+opalsns]

I'd send one back to you.

 

Thanx

[+LewisClan77]

I'll stand on my head and let my 4 year old take some whacks with a whiffleball bat.

[+wolfslady]

I'd take my 2 year month old son (Wolf's Song) on a Carousel ride; take a picture of him with the coin and post it here. He's a Leo by the way. A lion with my loin and I ain't lyin'.

 

Fun contest. Fun answers Thank you.

[+Carbon Hunter]

I liked this idea that I decided to try and get a "non-tradtional" Earthcache. So I developed an Earthcache at the Burj Khalifa - the world's tallest building. Very difficult as it is not extremely interesting geologically.

 

I am working on it - and will push through and get it published. Although coins can not get placed into Earthcaches - I will make the target cache for the coin - to reach the Burj Khalifa and visit other tall buildings around the world.

[tommytrojan360]

If I win, I will wear a t-shirt to MORP (school dance tonight) saying "thank you sterni2009" and/or "just won a geocoin"

[tommytrojan360]

Ok so when does this end? lol

[+Silfron Mandotheneset]

We'll release it in the 100th cache we find (we're getting close) and post a picture here.

[+sterni2009]

Ok, it was very hard to decide for me, but we have winnerS

 

I will give away two coins because there were two suggestions I like very much.

 

The first coin will go to Carbon Hunter for his suggestion to invite friends for coffee and sweets and call the coin the friendship coin. I love the idea because friends are one of the most important things of the world. Please take fotos as you wrote and post them here in the forum.

 

The second coin will go to tommytrojan360 for his suggestion to build a cache namend "Thank you sterni2009". How could I resist having a cache named after me Please send me the gc-number when the cache is published.

 

As I do not have a third coin to give away but want to put a smile on the face of Gatoulis, because things turned out not so well concerning a job, I will give Gatoulis some "German cache things", two German FTF-schedules, four German cache-stickers for marking a box as a cache and an "I love Geocaching" pencil.

 

Please send me your adresses via email.

 

Thanks everyone for playing

Congrats to the winners,and kudos to Sterni for wanting to brighten the day of our friend GATOULIS, who is going through a tough time, employment-wise. What a wonderful gesture!!

[tommytrojan360]

Thanks Sterni for your kindness!

Email sent!

[+wolfslady]

Congrautualtions to the winners. I'm still going to do most of what I posted here. I think a good idea deserves to be followed thru on even if there isn't a prize involved.

[+Carbon Hunter]

Thank you Sterni - and what a wonderfulgesture that you are making even more coins and prizes available.

 

You are a great team.

[daveindeal]

congratulations to the winners - but you missed a great oppotunity for me to make a complete fool of myself in front of others.

 

if anyone is willing to send me a coin for my collection im happy to profide proof of a foolish and embarising act for it!!

[+sterni2009]

I am happy to see that I made people happy

 

I will go to the post office next Saturday, the days when I work I have no chance to go there because the post office is still closed when I start working and is already closed when I come back from work

 

That was a fun cointest! Has anyone seen Gatoulis? He has not written anything yet.

[+GATOULIS]

I am here! I just entered in the thread and saw...

 

You are so sweet my friend!

Congrats to the winners and thank you my friend for your kind offer!

 

I am trying to see what to do now! I have to keep smilling and live the day!

 

It is not good to be sad all the time! Things will be better... I hope! Ok, I admit that... I am sad but what can I do now? Nothing! so...

 

Maybe it is good to think something from the old times...

 

If you can change a thing.... you do not have to worry and feel sad!

If you can not.... you did your best.. so why to worry??? Why to feel sad??

 

I will email you soon my friend!

[tommytrojan360]

I can tell you are trying to stay positive with your 6 smilies, lol.

[+Carbon Hunter]

@Gatoulis: I am glad you on Rhodes my friend - and not in Athens where there was lots of problems. Hope all is afe with you.

[+Eartha]

Cointest ended, thank you for playing.
