What about this new triple hit

This user Henk Krol has entered lots of notes so I don't want to believe that he would be a faker but..... :?

Henk Krol has the same opinion as ZEUS (for ZEUS see earlier in this topic.):
They both want to emphasize that a bill travels from one place to another.
F.E. ZEUS wanted to show that his bills traveled from his address in South-
West Germany to relatives in Belgium (HERA, MINOS, and some others). On
the Dutch forum Henk Krol made the same point. Most probably he and this
Roy go to the same discotheque/café/pub/... or have the same employee
(the 'Gaykrant', that is the Gaynewspaper), and Henk Krol might have talked
about this site with Roy, and now they are both entering bills.

BTW, MoRLoCK and KrisP have been entering each others notes:

I've moderated their hits now, but this is not a punishment or anything like that, just that those hits are different than the other hits. I did the same for Zeus &co.

I'd like to point out that the moderation is mostly done by others, they just do their job without announcing about themselves that much. This approach has been chosen so that the moderators won't become "personal targets" for those whose hits have been moderated.

I'm in a different situation so I can usually make the decisions in public.

I suspect he's coming round to the idea... He mentioned in an email a few days ago that only three of his then seven hits were really interesting.

As far as I can tell, he IS Austrian and thus these entries might well be valid.

I agree with avij here. It looks like he has learnt his lesson. Today he has
entered some bills from Maribor (Slovenia), but that might be because he has
been shopping there. :idea:

Gradec is the Slavic name of the city Graz, cultural capital of Europe 2003. Sounds pretty similar, doesn't it? Plus we know that Marsupilami has the habit of using the Slavic names where applicable. As for his other alleged habit - that has been taken care of.

Marsupilami1000 seems suspicious, Why would one person hop so many countries in a short period of time??????? I can verify the Japanese cities also, since I studied a little on Japanese culture years, years, years............................ago.

Today I entered a note I had got from Vienna and I used the Hungarian name of the city (Bécs) but it didn't confuse the system! :wink:

Of course not, Austria is used to have many languages in its area (and therefore heavily varying names for its cities) since 1526.
But you might have confused certain other EBT users that will surely appreciate your explanation, because they might have suspected abuse otherwise.
