Rules



  1. 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.)
  2. The response consists of all those GOC members that have been issued a coin being challenged drawing their coin in a like manner.
  3. 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.
  4. If everyone being challenged responds in the correct manner, the challenger must buy a round of drinks for all those people they challenged.
  5. 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.
  6. Only 100 coins have been made, there may be more in the future, but no plans at this time.
  7. Application for Coin must be made by only Active users, in good standing, that are Registered to www.gunownersofcanada.ca

When-Where


Coin checks are permitted, ANY TIME, ANY PLACE.

Exceptions


There are no exceptions to the rules if you apply for a coin you accept the challenge. At the time of the challenge you are permitted to locate your coin if it is with the general area of where you are (same room)

Tracking

Coins will be listed 1-100 (more possibly in the future) and updated as issued, lost, or turned in.

A Member may turn in a coin for an extra entry into a giveaway that is listed as a extra giveaway entry. The coin holder must email [email protected] for mailing details and the coin must be mailed to the Administrator prior to the end of the giveaway. Coin turn in for Extra entry does not guarantee that you will win, it's all chance.

A Member may turn in a coin for $50.00 credit to the GOC store for instock items only. The coin must be mailed to the Administrator prior to the credit being issued.

4000 posts! At my rate I can apply in 12 more years. Well that's what I get for being a lurker

Owell another thread to ignore. Is only for old members with many posts.
 
Ignore? Join me in the bushes the lurking is great over here

No that is not true, there are more than one way, the 4000 posts is the easy way.

It wouldn't be a challenge coin, without it being worth while to get
 
Unfortunately #8 Calling dibs on #69 wasn't one of them... lol...

I guess I gotta start posting on every thread.
 
4000 posts? Nope. Contributing excellence to the community? I've contributed, but don't know I'd label it as excellence. Looks like one of these coins is not in my future
 
Okay so you can get one if other coin members nominate you. I thought that was in addition to the 4K posts

Yeah R&R rancher I think that's how it works... You certainly cleared that up for me.... In an excellent way I'd even say. Yup pure excellence on your part.
 
How about some love for some of the first members?
 
I read the entire post. You need to have 4000 posts or live in Alberta so you can buy drinks for a bunch of people and a few other impossible terms. The chances of talking to a Mod is right up there with being a contributor of excellence to the community when everything a person says a Mod jumps down his throat with another idea.

If you read the entire post, you're not understanding it.
 
Its a bold strategy lets see if it pays off. Seriously though nice design! Makes me wonder where all my challenge coins buggered off to...
 
Cmon guys/gals.. GOC put up quite a bit of money to offer this to the members... Yes it may take some work to get, but it was not meant to be easy. We want this is to be a challenge to receive. We are not forcing anybody to participate, but we would definitely like everybody too. There will be some given away by: Admins, Moderators and you; the members.

I think rules 7&8 are essentially the same for the process, and 9 could be merged into it with a little re-wording. So three rules could be reduced to just one.
