+vds Posted November 13, 2004 Share Posted November 13, 2004 Indeed! And thank you, lucyandricky, for making yourselves available this morning. Nice meeting you! and thanks again for showing up in Coulon as well, mighty thoughtful to make the 'tour de coin' today for folks. Quote Link to comment
+WeightMan Posted November 14, 2004 Share Posted November 14, 2004 Let me add my thanks to L&R for being at Coulon with my coins and for all the work they did in putting this together as well as my thanks to all those others who helped get these coins done. They are spectacular. Quote Link to comment
+Prying Pandora Posted November 14, 2004 Share Posted November 14, 2004 We never saw L&R in the parking lot, but went in, out and all around Ivar's. So close and yet so far. Quote Link to comment
+GEM's Posted November 14, 2004 Share Posted November 14, 2004 Picked up my coins @ 5 in Tacoma...Thanks Lucyandricky! Got to see Shopper and saw Geodiver there as well! Quote Link to comment
+KC0GRN Posted November 14, 2004 Share Posted November 14, 2004 I'm kinda curious to know, has anyone out of state received theirs yet? (I would be included in that bunch, and am patiently waiting). Quote Link to comment
+pdxmarathonman Posted November 14, 2004 Share Posted November 14, 2004 Only if they've made the trek to the Puget Sound area. L&R have indicated that the "shipping" of coins will commence next week. Quote Link to comment
+Shop99er Posted November 14, 2004 Share Posted November 14, 2004 Thanks to L&R for meeting us at the Tacoma TB Vault. And to everyone else that showed up and made this a nice couple of hours. And, another, BIG thanks to L&R for doing all this for us. Quote Link to comment
+Seth! Posted November 14, 2004 Share Posted November 14, 2004 Please give me until tonight (late) to get the geocoin tracking ready on the WSGA site. It's nearly done but I'm stuck at work all day. Then I'm off to the Sonics game. I'll probably miss the TB event in Kirkland (shoot!!!) unless it goes late. - Seth! Quote Link to comment
+Square Bear Posted November 14, 2004 Share Posted November 14, 2004 Will be waiting for them in the mail. Now if I can just get to the mail box before Rose. Quote Link to comment
+Wander Lost Posted November 14, 2004 Share Posted November 14, 2004 I knew that these coins would be great looking. But let me tell you, they are even more impressive in person. They are beautiful. The detail is amazing!!!!!!!! Thanks for the great evening at the park-n-ride in Tacoma. Quote Link to comment

MarcusArelius Posted November 14, 2004 Share Posted November 14, 2004 I knew that these coins would be great looking. But let me tell you, they are even more impressive in person. They are beautiful. The detail is amazing!!!!!!!! I concur! For those that have not gotten thiers yet you will not be disappointed. It's the best looking coin I've ever seen. I'm really glad we went with the epoxy I wasn't too sure during the design phase but boy that just adds to the quality! Thanks for all the work guys. Especially L&R for spending all weekend so that we could get our hands on "the precious". Quote Link to comment
+Kealia Posted November 14, 2004 Share Posted November 14, 2004 Oh man, you guys are killing me with the "these are even better in person" comments! I'm waiting patiently here in CA for mine but can't avoid looking in here every day for updates on shipping. It's like pouring salt in an open wound...... I shouldn't complain, though; at least I was able to order some . Waiting to place my next cache so I can leave one of these as a FTF. Quote Link to comment
+pdxmarathonman Posted November 15, 2004 Share Posted November 15, 2004 I think this thread should be locked. At least until I get my coins. Every time I read about somebody gushing over how cool they are I get pain in my chest. And since there is no way I can "not" read this topic every time there is a new post - the only alternative is to lock the thread. But since all the moderators seem to already have their coins I don't expect to get any sympathy. You have no idea how close I came to driving from PDX to Kirkland today! If anyone thinks I am serious..... well, I doubt that's the case. Quote Link to comment
nolenator Posted November 15, 2004 Share Posted November 15, 2004 Ah PDX don't be sour, remember you live in another state. Just sending some smack, don't take it personally. You won't be disappointed though. Peace, Nolenator Quote Link to comment

+Shop99er Posted November 15, 2004 Share Posted November 15, 2004 I got #30. And, to those that asked Saturday night at the Park and Ride, I have just ordered the shirt that my avatar is based on. It will be my "Official" Event shirt. Quote Link to comment

+GO West Posted November 15, 2004 Share Posted November 15, 2004 I'm in the state and I'm still waiting! Don't worry Crimson, I bet you'll have them by Apple Cup! By the way, I got the highly coveted and hugely sought after #114! Quote Link to comment
+vds Posted November 15, 2004 Share Posted November 15, 2004 (edited) #0017 here and it's going NOWHERE My others started at 471, so if they were allocated by purchase order for both the low and high serial numbers, somebody down low ordered quite a bunch.

+evergreenhiker! Posted November 15, 2004 Share Posted November 15, 2004 My low was 132 adn the other 4 were in the 380s. Hey VDS you got my favorite number. Congrats. Quote Link to comment

MarcusArelius Posted November 15, 2004 Share Posted November 15, 2004 I got 095. Ricky said for all the "over 5" orders he put the names in a bowl and drew out your low number. The rest were by order placement date. Quote Link to comment

+k7-wave Posted November 15, 2004 Share Posted November 15, 2004 I picked mine up on Saturday and got the highly coveted and desperately sought after #109! It's going nowhere but watch out for the others in the 970 range. Quote Link to comment

+pdxmarathonman Posted November 15, 2004 Share Posted November 15, 2004 I am still hoping that somehow L&R decided that the first person that actually got them the money gets a really low number I can't seem to find a stoop either ND Quote Link to comment
+GeoDiver/GeoGrammy Posted November 15, 2004 Share Posted November 15, 2004 (edited) #0056, here (a keeper). The rest are in the 1300's. A HUGE "thank you" to Lucy & Ricky for spending their entire day on Saturday to travel to several locations to allow those of us who just couldn't wait, to pick them up in person. I know that those of us who met at the Tacoma Park-n-Ride had a great time visiting with each other. Edited November 15, 2004 by GeoDiver Quote Link to comment

I'm still getting a server-side error on the 'forgot my password' screen. Of course I can't remember if I ever 'made' a password for the WSGA site to begin with.

+TotemLake Posted November 15, 2004 Share Posted November 15, 2004 maybe I'll be the lucky person to get the 1500th Nah. I already know who got that. (It wasn't me.) Quote Link to comment
+KC0GRN Posted November 16, 2004 Share Posted November 16, 2004 hmm, now I gotta figure out a new number to hope for... 42? probably too low and nabbed by a local 77? (my birthyear) probably same deal 112, 256, 512, 1024? Maybe, depends on the rest of the computer geeks out there Any combination of binary digits? probably same deal as above 286,386,486,586? More possible, but any intel people in WA nabbed those I'm sure Quote Link to comment

I don't remember getting any password when I joined. Of course, I have slept since then,,,,, Quote Link to comment
+Ed & Julie Posted November 16, 2004 Share Posted November 16, 2004 Whoohoo! I ordered way back on 8-22-04. Never got word...are they shipping?? Quote Link to comment
lucyandrickie Posted November 16, 2004 Author Share Posted November 16, 2004 After distributing about 30 orders over the weekend, we still have about 150 orders to get in the mail. I got about 30 out yesterday and may get 40 out today. Please be a little patient. My goal is to get all of them in the mail by Friday. Most of the orders are going out UPS ground. That means that those of you on the east coast will not se the coins until early next week, while those of you in the Seattle area willl see them the day after I get them out. I'll let every one know when they all have shipped. Rickie Quote Link to comment
+Seth! Posted November 17, 2004 Share Posted November 17, 2004 Info on coin tracking is now at this thread. Seth! Quote Link to comment

+Bull Moose Posted November 17, 2004 Share Posted November 17, 2004 I had mine shipped to work. I think the shipping guys are already tired of seeing me, and they might not get here until next Monday, depending on when they are shipped. And they are just going from Seattle to Seattle.
