So I learned from experience today that contrary to previous reports, one CANNOT put “as many coins as you like”  in the ATM for a deposit.  The machine freaks out and sort of goes catatonic, shrieking as it shuts down. You have to call a person and they explain to you that if you are going to put over 100 coins in, you should take them to the window.   I suspect that your mileage may vary, since I got 218 in by the machine’s count the first time (it closed its little window before I could finish depositing. Evidently you put coins in first and once you put in bills, it thinks you have finished.)   It also takes FOREVER to count the coins and reject the ones it doesn’t like (it spat out a mangy 1 yen coin, among others).

AMAZING RACE: SAGA Application forms are available here (PDF) or here (Word).

Please note that the race format is subject to change– for example, we may randomly mix teams.

Use the PDF version if you just want to quickly fill in and print the form for delivery or fax.

The Word document can be saved for emailing, but is a little more cumbersome to fill out because you might push stuff around as you type. However, you should be able to save the Word version and email it to
