I totally agree with Gauss. Eurozone countries first, then the others. This would maybe also help avoid wrong country locations caused by the mouse roller. mic
my bill maps - i'm proud of them! :)

Right! The wrong locations causes wrong stats...
I support Gauss' suggestion.

Great idea gauss - it would make it so much easier. I feel sorry for the people from countries like Spain and Portugal who have to scroll down to the bottom of the list.
If you can keep your head when all around you have lost theirs, then you probably haven't understood the seriousness of the situation.

In the mean time we have received requests to add

Mozambique
Madagascar
New Zealand

but I'd strongly prefer to re-arrange the list before any new countries are added.

Venga, you could precise it in the comments. If you put "Aruba" as the location, the map will show the right place. :-)

Here are the flags:

-> Madagascar has a white part in its flag we can't see on the forum, but we'll see on EBT.

Olivier, actually we can, because you posted a darker grey post. If I had
posted it now, it would have been less visible:

Well, Uruguay is not on the list of available countries. Is there a need to add it?

If there is a need to add Uruguay it's likely to be done soon but I'd strongly prefer to have the list re-arranged before any new countries are added.

Hi,

this was a request from me to contact@eurobilltracker. I was in Peru, Bolivia,
Buenos Aires and Brazil an I spend some 5 Euro-Bills as Tipp, donation or simply exchange. In Buenos Aires you could pay in some stores with Euros for an good exchange-rate! Unfortunately you could pay with dollar in all countries nearly everywhere.

Viele Grüße
Andreas

Yes, i really think so. Because there are many euro-bills in Peru and Bolivia and i want to start to enter it. Furthermore I can win a new user from our Travel-group who also wants to start with eurobilltracker.

Maxl is my girl friend. I change with her my euro-bills, which we use by travelling around. To show, that this is a known hit, I use the word “fake” in the comment.
For me it is important to show where a euro-bill travels around the world. I think this means the word “eurobilltracker”. Last year I tried to discuss this in the german forum (I don’t find the topic). I don’t think eurobilltracker is a game, where I can win, when I have a real hint. For me its more important to show the track of an bill. I don’t found a regulation (in the german help-files) that it is forbidden to insert an fake hint.
One proposal in the german forum was to enter the receiving point in the comment and only put the spending point in the database. Maybe I should do this in the future?
On the other hand there were some tipps in the last german news to take bills to money-changers around the world. What kind of hints are this?

I please you to concretise the regulations for inserting bills, because I don’t want to feel like as an bad person (Betrüger beguiler?). See the comments in the Nederlands-Forum. If you look at my history you can see, that i am a brave user who puts only his own bills in the database (for some years- before at euro.info). I only want to show euro-bills travelling around the states of the world.

Maybe it is possible to find a solution which is suitable for all users.

Andreas


I hope my English is not to bad and you can understand my opinon.
