Streifen Karte - stripey multi-journey tickets

Normally I use a Monthy card but this month I have holidays and don´t need it so I have a Streifen karte.
Which number do I stamp first 1 or 10?
and if I only need to travel 4 stops (with the bus in München) how many do i need to stamp?

4 stops in one direction is 1 streifen.
start is with 1 and make your way up to ten!

right, but only the bus (and maybe tram)! s-bahn & u-bahn is 2 stops/1 strip (short trip or kurzstrecke) or 2 strips one zone.

Which number do I stamp first 1 or 10?
It really shouldn't be that difficult to figure out that you start with 1.

and if I only need to travel 4 stops (with the bus in München) how many do i need to stamp?
Depends on the zones the stops are in. Two stripes within any single zone.

You only need to stamp stripe 2 for that first trip, 4 for the second, and so on. Anything below the highest stamp is cancelled and they count up from the last cancellation.

Or you can be a real bastard and stamp each of the eight stripes it takes to go to the airport and make the checkers look carefully.

woof.

I am travelling on the bus which goes along Frankfurter ring and Moosacher str.
So I guess this would be 1 stamp?

If I am not mistaken:
1 till 5 stops (but only 2 for U-Bahn and S-Bahn); otherwise, 2 streifen for each trip (it corresponds to a normal one-way ticket)

The definiton of "Kurzstrecke" is a maximum of 4 stops, up to 2 of which can be on the S-Bahn and/or U-Bahn.

This method is actually not valid; when I first came here I didn't know any better and stamped each strip individually. The ticket inspector warned me that each stamp counts as 1 journey, even if stamping from the same machine at the same time. So please don't do this otherwise you would get charged a fine for not stamping enough.

Also, if I remember correctly, if you're using the same Streifenkarte for 2 people you're supposed to stamp it twice. So if it's a journey that requires 2 stamps, you have to stamp 2 and then 2 again, rather than just stamping 4 all at once. Same for taking a bike: stamp for yourself and the bike separately (or buy a separate Fahrrad Tageskarte).

Bad Doggie, I started with 10 when I first got here because you had to turn the ticket in half to start at one, and guessed (wrongly) that it was a count down system. Fined for my efforts too what is more. I am rather good at cryptic crossword puzzles though
