I only have these:

I entered the note in Ireland, so therefore it doesn't count.

And my nickname is Nick6502 ... ;)

I've always been a slow starter but fortunately it's not too late yet. :D

Just got my 50th hit today and at the same time 5th country. Now I've got

Belgium,
(this hit is with Goldwood who started tracking on the very same day as I did, in January 2003)

Netherlands,
(this hit was worth mentioning because one of the EBTM2005 candidate cities was Leiden)

Finland and Portugal at the same time
(nice distance, nice life span for a note which was worn, old and written on even when I got it and it still survived for more than seven months)

France
(just got this hit, and although I have received and spent the note in the beginning of May in Normandy, I only had time to add it to the database a couple of days ago. I'm glad that I did register it then and not during next weekend, otherwise it would have looked really strange).

Sorry, that makes only four. Your Portugal-Finland hit doesn't get you Portugal, because we're hunting for hitpartners from each state. There are two reasons: 1) I just randomly decided its like this 2) I want to give as little extra advantage as possible for those who travel a lot. I'd like the "points" in this game to be collected by luck and hard work of entering serials. I want to make sure that those who enter the most serials get the best reward, because that might make the amount of entered notes higher at least by a few tens, which then slightly improves the hitchances of new users, thus also helping them in their task of turning into addicts and not just stopping right away ;)

I have hit both in Finland and Austria, but hitpartners only in Finland. :wink:

I noticed the list had wrong flags for bhoeyb and Elmo, so I changed the flags into correct ones ;)
