DYWTAMP Declaration

I joined my fellow doublers at Doubler's Den and declared my own Declaration of Doubling...

I will complete Step 11 by tomorrow.
I will complete Step 12 by August 19, 2010.

I also decided to accept Doubler's Creed that my friend doubler, Xinfinitum, posted today on his blog. The Creed is as follows...

"We are Doublers and Penny Pickers. And Adventurers and Wannabe Millionaires. Who day and night go step by step with duty, honor and pride. And neither sickness, nor disease, nor ridicule, nor bad night vision, nor lack of finding change, nor ever finding the national treasure, will stay us from the swift completion of our sporadic rounds. Ever."

DYWTAMP Update

Long time since my last post. Since then I manage to complete Step 5. Current stake is 88.67 HRK. I also have about 25 HRK in EUR coins. Once I exchange them to HRK I will be well off in Step 6. Since my last post first anniversary of DYWTAMP occurred as well (March 1).

Plastic Bottles

Nothing much to report. Didn't find any money. There is a snow for several days now, so it is impossible to find any coins. I did notice during previous snow periods that after the snow there are always lots of coins on the streets. Possibly because people lost them and can't find them due to the snow.

I did manage to find some plastic bottles. Total count of bottles found is 6, and once I hit 10 I will go to redeem them for money. I also have to go to the bank to sell euro coins I found. That will put me in Step 6.

Stake: 69.30 HRK

Fourth Year Of This Blog

This blog started back in January 2007 as my doubling blog. Since then I abandoned my initial doubling project, started few new, changed rules, played with it and having good time.

To many more doubling years. :)

Happy New Year

This is last post for 2009. We found 0.45 HRK today, so the first year of DYWTAMP will end with 69.20 HRK in stake money. It all started on March 1, 2009. And it is all achieved with finding lost assets.

Finding lost assets will continue to be main activity for DYWTAMP in 2010 as well. It would be great if I manage to complete Step 7 during 2010.

Happy New Year!

Official currency for DYWTAMP remains Croatian kuna (HRK). At least until euro become official currency in Croatia.

New Rules

I prepared new set of rules that will better reflect the fact that the focus of this project is on finding lost assets. Here they are...

Rule 1. You must start this project from absolutely nothing.
Rule 2. Finding lost assets is the only activity that is allowed in this project.
Rule 3. You are not allowed to process found assets in any way, you can only sell them as you find them.
Rule 4. You are allowed to add your labor and your equipment when searching for lost assets.
Rule 5. If your current step results in more than doubling, then you must carry the surplus onto the next step.
Rule 6. You are not allowed to spend one cent of the project's money.
Rule 7. You must keep a diary of events.
