Marking bills

[smh]

Should we mark bills with the URL of this page?

I know we discussed this before, but there never was a poll.

If yes, how should we mark the bills?
Writing the URL, printing the URL, with a stamp?

I do sometimes with a pencil. But I want my bills to stay clean.

Has anyone thought about using little stickers? That wouldn't damage or deface the bill.

So far, I'm the only one who voted no
IIRC, it was said elsewhere in EBT that marking bills is expressly forbidden
in €-zone, and marked bills are retired from circulation, thus reducing the "life" of a banknote (and the chances of getting multiple hits).

I'm writing sometimes the URL with a pen on the notes. But i have to admit i feel a bit guilty when writing on brand new notes

Voting no and look the older topic about this for my reasons.

As an experiment I stamped a few 5 euro bills with the eurobilltracker url and now I wait and see if these bills have a greater chanche to be entered.

I think that marked bills have a significantly higher chance of multiple hit's. Chances on a hit of a random bill without telling anyone about this site is very small.

What is the amount of 5,10,20 and 50 euroblills that are prinyed?

A shop owner told me my bill was "dirty", when she saw the url of the site on the bill, even if it was little and on the side... she was a bit reluctant to accept it.

I'll stop to mark bills, I think.

I vote no too, for some reasons of pinguino
