Perhaps they have no reason to do it. Btw AVIJ, why not to mention something like (please write down the whole name) beside the place-field...?

What is that list? It's very weird 8O

I don't believe in that listing at all, because the city abbreviations are not correct. For example my hometown Heinola is Hla, not Hei :evil:

Or automaticly correcting the most usual like Hki, Tre, Tku, Jyv, Jns...? This would correct most of the cases...

I find it a bit difficult to believe that a finnish person should get a euro note in Sicily, and that same note was in finland three days earlier, and was registered by a different, unknown person. My bet is these two users know each other (which makes for an uninteresting hit)

Just listing this here to prove the point.

Sad but true. Althought these wouldn't be fake ones, it's obvious that these guys know each other and have been travelling together. So these hit's aren't interesting at all. Hope they would be real ones... :?

What do you think about our newest triple hit? I find it very real looking, but it's strange that user oVRoM entered it as his/her first bill. Could this bill have traveled with the URL written on it 435 days without being entered again or being destroyed in some bank?? Still I really want to believe that this beautiful hit is real! :P

If the bill stayed for 434 days in Belgium it is possible, besauce Beigium is
not strict at all with destroying marked bills.

I saw that too and I was surprised how un-curious people are to try what the URL on the bill means... :?
