2011-02-18 08:30:05 20 EUR Girona - La Calamine Flag for España Flag for Bélgica an-148 - mikoyan 999 2
2011-02-18 08:30:05 20 EUR Girona - La Calamine Flag for España Flag for Bélgica an-148 - mikoyan 999 1
the notes resulting from my travel have been spread in 4 different banks in La Calamine (a real hot spot in our region, a kind of local Helmbrechts, where I regularly drop interresting bills with the hope they will have more chance to reappear than somewhere else, but it still depends from luck/unluck) : 3 of them have no automatic cash swallower, so, the bills have been handed out at the counter; the 4th bank (Dexia) has an automatic cash swallower where I drop the bills without the need to wait at the counter.
as soon as the bills are in the machine they are available for other users: logical !
I dropped those bills at around 1500 in the afternoon and they have been picked up in the following morning by mikoyan: time enough for having all my bills already in the hands of non-ebt inhabitants !!
(which has been the case for :note-10: and :note-50: who were in the same machine)
in my eyes, those hits are regular, although not "enormous" beautiful because of the short time span(I would have prefered to see a little bigger time span between 1st and 2nd registrations, but when you drop the bills you never know if and when they will reappear!!)

I find something very strange about this hit, and once again Petec&co.
http://nl.eurobilltracker.eu/notes/?id=92233402

Notice that he has entered this bill bill on 22nd of September in 2009.
Now look at his user profile where he has joined EBT on 24th of April 2010.
How is this possible?

In that case I apologize. I'm also a citymanager, and when I merge two cities the date-stamp will remain the same, so I thought this was also working this way for user-profiles.

That's because cities have two levels - parent cities and locations. Locations maintain their timestamp when merged, parent cities don't even have a timestamp (that I know of).

Users don't work like that. It could be suggested that, when user accounts were merged, the oldest date should be assigned to the merged account.

This looks a little suspicious. Different days, different countries, and all international hits.

Two different users (maxl and tram-love) have registered the same series at the same time and in different locations:

From the comment fields it seems they are also location-fakers.
