+Max and 99 Posted February 13, 2021 Share Posted February 13, 2021 (edited) New game! Attention geocachers: We are recruiting you for a worldly quest. Legend tells of a rose so radiant that Knights from every realm went seeking it! Go out and claim one of your very own and earn your place among the Templars! The game is simple: go to a location where a Knight Templar seal has been spotted. If you get there first, you will find a seal tag waiting for you. Please take the tag to keep as your own. Please do not grab more than one tag of each color. Claim the tag online as soon as possible following the instructions on the back so it can be removed from the map. You will then be given instructions how to get a trackable suncatcher geocoin prize that combines with the tag! How cool is that? There are two kinds of seals: one for dark templars (black nickel) and one for light templars (antique silver). Get them both and become a Templar grand master! These coins and tags are exclusive to this Templar Radiant Knights Quest game.The hider packs will go on pre-sale, Thursday February 11: Hider Packs Sale pageThere will also be a gold supporter coin available at that time. Stay alert - and set an alert - because a knight seal may appear at any time and anywhere in the world. Join our Facebook Group for game updates and announcements and follow the game on Instagram and Twitter. http://s3.amazonaws.com/snagthetag/templar_coin_image.jpg Redemption rules: Strictly one coin of each type per household and family member; please do not grab more than one of each tag. There is no charge for the redemption geocoin, but you are responsible for any shipping charges. As a courtesy to other finders, please claim your tag immediately. Instructions for claiming are on the back of the tag. The geocoin must be claimed by June 30, 2021.

+Max and 99 Posted February 13, 2021 Author Share Posted February 13, 2021 I love this part: Bonus: If you are a hider for one of the Templars you can find the other. Quote Link to comment

I saw that there was also a gold supporter coin that you could buy if you wanted the coin, but didn’t want to play the game. That is something new. I finally got the new game alert...so maybe they fixed something as I didn’t get an alert for the past couple of games. Quote Link to comment

Yes. Me too! The last game was for members of that club only which is why most of us did not get a notification. Quote Link to comment
+thebruce0 Posted February 16, 2021 Share Posted February 16, 2021 Killer for international though. The gold coin including shipping came to over $50CAD. 1 1 Quote Link to comment

You got me wondering something. I have not thought this through. When I hide a tag almost certainly the finder is local. Instead of paying shipping for The hider plus shipping for The finder to redeem their gift, why can't we just put both tags together when we hide them and save all that cost of shipping?

Guaranteed there will be people buying a hider pack and keeping both the tag and prize geocoin. 1 Quote Link to comment

I thought about emailing them to ask what they did with un-redeemed tags. I think the 2 mammoth tags I hid 2 games ago were claimed but never got redeemed. Or at least I never got an email about it. I got an email message from the agent of dawn game that the 2 tags I hid were claimed and then redeemed. Maybe another new change to their system. Quote Link to comment

If I remember correctly this one is a worldwide game. Quote Link to comment
+Max and 99 Posted March 23, 2021 Author Share Posted March 23, 2021 I just checked the snag the tag website and it still says the Templar game starts April 2nd. I wish there was an update from them. Maybe it's on social media, which I don't use. Quote Link to comment

+Max and 99 Posted April 6, 2021 Author Share Posted April 6, 2021 Mine finally arrived. So many pieces. I'm going to have to read carefully to figure out what to do with each of them. Quote Link to comment
+Max and 99 Posted April 6, 2021 Author Share Posted April 6, 2021 (edited) I'm not disagreeing, but this is different: They recommend that the tag is no more than a 1.5 /1.5, close to parking. And I didn't realize that as a hider of the morning tag I could be a finder on the evening tag! I think I got the email and rushed so fast to order the tag and didn't pay attention to the details.

+Max and 99 Posted May 4, 2021 Author Share Posted May 4, 2021 It was such a good feeling when my second one was finally snagged! I know sometimes tags sit there for weeks but a few days is very unusual in my area. It was such a relief to know I was done with my responsibility. ? Quote Link to comment
+thebruce0 Posted May 5, 2021 Share Posted May 5, 2021 We seem to have the same handful of people playing each game, and often the ftfs are gone either to other hiders who hid an alternate, or someone who was a hider and who's finding this round Quote Link to comment

+Max and 99 Posted May 18, 2021 Author Share Posted May 18, 2021 I was about to post about my confusion with the Sherlock hiding kit since the letter matched what I received but something didn't quite seem right. Sure enough, after checking the packing box a THIRD time I found a missing tag that had escaped all the packaging and was tucked very snugly into a flap. Now the letter made more sense! 😁 Quote Link to comment
+Max and 99 Posted June 1, 2021 Author Share Posted June 1, 2021 Sherlock starts tomorrow and I'm not even close to being ready. I can't even remember which one I have and which one I'm allowed to find. Quote Link to comment
+Max and 99 Posted June 2, 2021 Author Share Posted June 2, 2021 I'm confused. I thought there are Sherlock tags and there are Moriarty tags. There are two kinds of tags: antiqued gold Holmes that publish at 7 am and an antiqued silver that publish at 7 pm. I think mine look goldish. 1 Quote Link to comment

I guess the silver one is supposed to be the Moriarty tag. Maybe they have the same design on them, just different color to differentiate them. Hopefully someone who ordered a Moriarty tag can confirm. Quote Link to comment
+Max and 99 Posted October 23, 2021 Author Share Posted October 23, 2021 There's a new game starting soon (Geocaching High and Low), and I haven't seen anything regarding if you can be a finder for one/hider for the other. Has anyone seen information on social media? Quote Link to comment
+thebruce0 Posted October 24, 2021 Share Posted October 24, 2021 Yes, the facebook snagthetag at least has been posting updates about hider packs. Canada has them available for purchase, for example. Quote Link to comment
