Hey Guys,

Seen the latest hit? Wow, a real nice one! Billnumber 23987 has been under for 4 months and 2 days. It moved from Dublin Ireland to Graz Austria. Think this one, it is a record breaker by distance and by time under. If Marsupilami1000 or Odranmartin read this post, please do tell us more!

It seems we are now getting into a new phase of EBTing.
The one you cited is now my favourite hit, replacing the one with the bill which went from Dublin to Belfast
:D

How about this bill:

Travelled 1843 km (and that in 6 days). If I read it correctly the original poster went to Finland or sent it to Finland to buy Finnish coins.

Thats mine :-)
I already told people on this forum that this wasn't a 100% real hit (as i count it). But here is the story:

A couple of months there was a thread about Finnish coins (or coins in general IIRC). Since i was still looking for the 1 and 2 cent coins i got in contact with another user of this forum. Things didn't went really fast but in the beginning of this month i sent that 10 euro bill to Finland in exchange for some finnish coins. (still waiting for the coins though :cry: )

Re: TC

I bet it will not take much longer for you to receive your first hit. Since you live near Brussels and with Sixflags in your neighbourhood, I even dare to bet it will be an international hit....

Mr Euro

More More More.... :twisted: :twisted:

Maybe you have to make some promotion for EBT near your place. That can help ...

Maybe someone with statistical background can do a calculation what the odds are that someone gets a hit?

Lets test it. You enter a note and send it to me. The odd's are about 100% that you'll have a hit :P

But serious. It depends on a lot of things.

If the bill is dirty the chances for a hit are lower since it will be destroyed at a national bank.

If someone writes the URL of EBT on the bill, obviousely the chances are getting higher.

If you spend your bill in a place were there are relatively more people online the chances get higher.

There are many factors that can influence the chance that you get a hit. But it should be possible to calculate it.

There are xxxxx bills in europe and yy bills entered into the system.
The math is an exercise for the reader
