+GATOULIS Posted February 8, 2012 Share Posted February 8, 2012 100 posts in this cointest! WOW!! FEB 16, 12:00 Quote Link to comment
+EyeD10T Posted February 9, 2012 Author Share Posted February 9, 2012 I received word from the mint that a mistake was made with these coins. I am working with them to try to decide what I want to do, so the delivery of the coins may be pushed out even further. I dont really want this cointest to go on too long, so I propose a small change. 1. The person that already guessed the estimated ship date first will still win a coin. 2. I will compile a list of names of everyone that has participated up until now. I will use a random number generator to pick a winner for the 2nd coin. 3. Once the coins are ready to ship, I will give away a third coin by opening up another round of guessing for the date and time to receive the coin...this time closer to the date. Please let me know if you have any questions or concerns. Thanks for understanding. Jim Quote Link to comment

+EyeD10T Posted February 9, 2012 Author Share Posted February 9, 2012 Well...I spoke too soon. Looks like the shipment is back on track. I decided to go ahead and accept the coins that the mint has completed. This means that the pick a date part of the cointest is still going and I will still give a coin via random draw. 1 coin will be going to the person that guesses the correct estimated date first. 1 coin will be going to the person that guesses the closest to the actual date and time. 1 coin will be going to the winner of a random draw. All names will be entered into the random draw only 1 time, regardless of how many times you answered. So, long story short, the guess the time and date cointest is back on. Oh - and what exactly is wrong with the coins? Well, that is a story I am saving until later. Quote Link to comment
+LadyBee4T Posted February 9, 2012 Share Posted February 9, 2012 I hope that the mistake is something you can live with! Sometimes the mistake is better than what was originally asked for as I found out foe one of my coins February 14 2:22 pm Quote Link to comment

+LadyBee4T Posted February 10, 2012 Share Posted February 10, 2012 February 10 4:32 pm I have a feeling that most of the daylight hours are going to be picked before this cointest ends. LOL Quote Link to comment

+EyeD10T Posted February 13, 2012 Author Share Posted February 13, 2012 I was going to post the pictures that the mint sent to me, but they didnt come out real clear so I decided to wait until I get the coins and can take the pictures myself. As far as the "mintstake" coins, I will tell everyone what the mintstake was when I post the pictures. Rest assured that the coins are in good condition. I dont think the mintstake was too serious - I figured that it was meant to happen. Rumor has it that the coins should be here any day now...Keeping my fingers crossed Quote Link to comment
