Whoa! You know there's a preview option, eh?

(Welcome to geohashing).

Yes, whoever you are, I found that. I just ended up clicking save a ton before seeing it.
That was me, forgot to sign. -Robyn 05:20, 1 May 2009 (UTC)


So, do you go around looking for new users or is there an alert system I missed? -Oracle989

When someone edits a page twenty or thirty times in a row it stands out pretty strongly in the list of recent changes. I don't know of a way to be notified of new users per se, but they usually do something to make themselves noticeable. And it's a friendly wiki. -Robyn 05:34, 1 May 2009 (UTC)
I see...well, thanks for the welcome! -Oracle989
See, we found you too! Welcome Mighty Oracle.

DISCUSSION FOR 5-2-2009 EXPEDITION


I might hit 35-80 this weekend, official Saturday location, at the official time, no promises but it's not ruled out. If you find yourself near that one, perhaps we'll meet. If I'm there, I'll give radio calls every 15 minutes from 3:30 to 4:30. -Oracle989

No dice, can't get up anyone else for the expedition, going solo seems like a bit of a waste. -Oracle989
Sometimes it is, but you never know. If it's a nice location then it's often fun to go anyway, and you never know if someone's going to show up unannounced. Or just be there without planning to geohash. Welcome to the sport, anyway. -- Benjw 21:43, 1 May 2009 (UTC)
Perhaps. Well, I'll take the hold off of it, if it happens, great, if not, oh well. My above statement of time and location stands, though it's just a little stand of woods, really. -Oracle989
See how you feel on Saturday afternoon! -- Benjw 21:46, 1 May 2009 (UTC)
