Rules
- The challenge is initiated by drawing your coin, firmly place it on the bar, table, or tapping it loudly (this should produce an audible noise which can be easily heard by those being challenged). If you accidentally drop your coin and it makes an audible sound upon impact, then you have just “accidentally” initiated a coin check. (This is called paying the price for improper care of your coin.)
- The response consists of all those GOC members that have been issued a coin being challenged drawing their coin in a like manner.
- If you are challenged and are unable to properly respond, you must buy a round of drinks for the challenger and the group being challenged.
- If everyone being challenged responds in the correct manner, the challenger must buy a round of drinks for all those people they challenged.
- Failure to buy a round of drinks is a despicable crime and will require that you turn-in your Coin to the Gun Owners of Canada Admin.
- Only 100 coins have been made, there may be more in the future, but no plans at this time.
- Application for Coin must be made by only Active users, in good standing, that are Registered to www.gunownersofcanada.ca
