I know the hit ratio in Vienna is very good in relation to other cities, but the coincidence to find 1 of only 10 special notes is slighltly different to this value.

For instance in Malta, considering the fact that some of the stops of the sightseeing tour were rather isolated and we only spent a short time there, we couldn't get far from the bus, thus people were bound to visit more or less the same kiosks and souvenir shops. Then, those persons paying a box of matches with 50€ note would get lots of smaller denominations and "friendly" hits.

Not only does it cause extra work to the moderating team, but I wish these users would also consider the situation from another trackers' point of view. For instance, I may have put some notes aside anticipating this trip, and planned to release some fivers into the wild on the island of Gozo. My tracking happens in rather small scale, compared to some other users, and I normally don't visit banks at all, just put the notes into normal circulation, like buying a cup of coffee or some postcards on the island, hoping to leave 5-10 notes in a specific place.

And what happened? People were "trawling" the shops or even the cafeteria on the ferry with larger notes, collecting most of my few fivers as exchange, which may have ended up in the Netherlands or Germany or wherever but not the planned place.

You may call this respecting the rules or respecting the fellow tracker, but I really wish only fivers were used at least during the time of the official meeting (if you want to raid the banks before or after the meeting, that's totally up to you).

Discussion, please. Do you think that's fair? Or anyone who did it, could you please give your reasons so that I might understand them?

I will put it up as an item for the boardmeeting. In my opinion the second user (or third in case of a triple) of a uninteresting meetinghit should be deleted, because the hit can never ever be interesting anymore.

Yeah, I imagined it was one of them. It was in a bundle which my colleague swapped with me.
