+*B'Elanna* Posted August 25, 2017 Share Posted August 25, 2017 Hi everyone, I assume many of you have received their free Mary Hyde Code in the meanwhile, but they are not sure what to do with it. So I thought we maybe could share ideas here. What have you done/are you planning to do with your code? When I went through the travelbug gallery yesterday, many great ideas could be seen what folks have done with their code. Look at this:https://img.geocaching.com/track/large/1f1ace71-d6f2-4ad2-a062-87c446927a5e.jpg https://img.geocaching.com/track/large/b48697af-a1ed-4dfa-a9e8-5a801ed9c1d7.jpg https://img.geocaching.com/track/large/c93b8895-900e-4c08-8c6c-a0010d329207.jpg https://img.geocaching.com/track/large/740b9176-aa49-4eac-a5bc-eaa62fd6a484.jpg https://img.geocaching.com/track/large/fa2d85c6-f373-4906-b33e-0e92427401d4.jpg https://img.geocaching.com/track/large/e36fce51-5be8-479d-bd32-0abd20f53fb2.jpg https://img.geocaching.com/track/large/abc9435f-1489-4d22-8244-fabd4a32392d.jpeg https://img.geocaching.com/track/large/547acac7-abe4-4337-bef8-1dcb0a4024a7.png https://img.geocaching.com/track/large/4c9ad3db-1ca8-4bb6-af69-67a74240ec40.jpg .... to be continued over the next days / weeks, when more and more geocachers present their creativity :-) ... to be completed by your ideas Quote Link to comment

When someone else recently asked about creating trackable items using their code I assumed that there might be some good examples in the trackable forums. I didn't care for the competitive aspect of the promotion (e.g. having a leader board) but I'm glad to see that some are exercising a bit of creativity with the trackable codes they earned. Several years ago I attended a large event in Switzerland (actually, two events) and noticed that wearable trackable codes (on backpacks, jackets) and even some custom artwork using that included tracking codes seemed to be far more common there than it seems to be in the U.S. Quote Link to comment
+thebruce0 Posted August 25, 2017 Share Posted August 25, 2017 My only thing is that the icon is very specific in theme. I'm not huge into pirates, so I really don't know what I want to do with mine. =/ Quote Link to comment
+seifertgal Posted August 25, 2017 Share Posted August 25, 2017 Hi. I never received my trackable code. I completed all parts of the challenge, found the hidden word and received my email stating I would have it by the 24th. Here it is the 25th and I have not gotten it yet. I've sent two emails and I get the generated reply that the inbox is full or to many emails are being sent at this time. What should I do next? Quote Link to comment

+mvhayes1982 Posted August 25, 2017 Share Posted August 25, 2017 I had a trackable on my previous vehicle, but didn't transfer it when I sold the truck. (the dealership removed the sticker). I'm planning on having my code turned into some neat window sticker for my new car. Quote Link to comment

I don't have any particular pirate themed Trackable ideas myself, but may come up with something. Quote Link to comment

+nextlogicalstep Posted August 29, 2017 Share Posted August 29, 2017 Thanks for this. I've been having a hard time coming up with an idea for what object to put mine on, although I have a few ideas for goals. Maybe I'll do the painted rock idea. Quote Link to comment
+fuzziebear3 Posted August 29, 2017 Share Posted August 29, 2017 I like the 3D printed treasure chest, as well as the doubloon, and the pirate ducky. I was hoping for a 'ship in a bottle', but haven't actually found one that will work. Quote Link to comment
+Green Valley Vegans Posted August 29, 2017 Share Posted August 29, 2017 (edited) My two geokids have decided that they would like to have a TB race using their own characters and the Mary Hyde codes.. only problem is that we only have one trackable code. If anyone has an unactivated one going spare I'd gladly buy it from you so that they can have a race. Edited August 29, 2017 by Green Valley Vegans Quote Link to comment
+Volanges Posted August 29, 2017 Share Posted August 29, 2017 Here we are the 29th and I still don't have my code. My geocaching partner, Mr. Popcorn, got his on the 24th. I like the duck and the treasure chest idea but I haven't decided what to do with mine, if I ever get it. Quote Link to comment

If you haven't received your code yet, then you may want to contact GS via the Help Center. Quote Link to comment

+FloridaJim Posted September 4, 2017 Share Posted September 4, 2017 Anybody doing a trackable tattoo? Quote Link to comment
+Crystlcryptr Posted September 16, 2017 Share Posted September 16, 2017 I got the free code and it is already being owned by another cacher??? Quote Link to comment
+HD_Diva Posted September 26, 2017 Share Posted September 26, 2017 This is what I did with mine. With the high occurance of TB's going MIA I decided that this one is staying with me to mark my treasure hunting journeys. www.geocaching.com/track/details.aspx?id=7637899 Quote Link to comment
