+Og's outfit Posted August 22, 2003 Share Posted August 22, 2003 Can I put an un-activated (still in the package) tag in a new cache? I know a person will more than likely be able to activate it, but will it allways be accociated with me? Og Prophetically Challenged (or is that Pathetically?) Quote Link to comment
Eeyore and Shadow Posted August 22, 2003 Share Posted August 22, 2003 IF its not activated its not associated with you at all. It isn't recognized by the site until it is activated. Eeyore I am moving along! Quote Link to comment
+bigredmed Posted August 22, 2003 Share Posted August 22, 2003 Might be fun to put it in a ziplock bag with a note to move the TB tag to some other state, activate it and send the TB back to a cache near you as its goal. That way you could see what item your tag got attached to, and it would be a novel "boomerang tag". http://groups.yahoo.com/group/nebraskache/ Quote Link to comment
+Og's outfit Posted August 22, 2003 Author Share Posted August 22, 2003 That's a neat idea, bigredmed. I just might do that! Thanks Og Prophetically Challenged (or is that Pathetically?) Quote Link to comment

That way I would think you might have a better chance of getting it back. ************************************************** "Yes officer I know I was speeding, but you have to understand, I have a chance to be the FTF !!

+ChrisCindy Posted August 22, 2003 Share Posted August 22, 2003 I have left TB tags as trade items. We also used them as door prizes at our last get together. When in doubt...hit it with a big hammer. Quote Link to comment

I had a set of bugs accidentally sent to me and I had them placed in caches as serendipity bugs, for the finder to do with them what they wanted. Curiously, they've all been picked up and yet some still haven't been activated yet. Webfoot Yeah, sure....but did he use a GPSr to find it? Quote Link to comment
+Geofool Posted August 24, 2003 Share Posted August 24, 2003 I've used unregistered travel bug tags for first finder prizes. GF ******************************************** Fool me once, shame on you, fool me twice, shame on me. Quote Link to comment
