:Hey, some of us just appear to be serious train nerds, and this is part of our favorite hobby. ;-) --[[User:Zb|Zb]] 16:47, 6 June 2009 (UTC)
 
:I am starting to think there should be an OCD ribbon for very detailed planners like us ;-) We're so Hanners of [http://questionablecontent.net/ QC], aren't we? --[[User:Zb|Zb]] 17:08, 6 June 2009 (UTC)
 
::I'm not :P (And I still am not calling my part detailed planning, but collecting options). Oh, on a scale from Hanners to Marigold, I'm slightly on the M side. Which is no wonder as M is my middle initial but there is no H in my name. --[[User:Ekorren|Ekorren]] 17:11, 6 June 2009 (UTC)

:And I still miss detailed advance information about a possible beer garden option at Eibsee: Which brewery provides the beer? How much is it? Do they serve in 0.5l glasses (Halbe) or 1.0l glasses (Maßen)? How much is the beer there anyway? Do they have chestnut trees like a good beer garden should? How bout the menu? Roasted pork? With bread dumplings or with potato dumplings? Good non-meat options like Käsespätzle or Kaiserschmarrn? Obazda? --[[User:Zb|Zb]] 17:19, 6 June 2009 (UTC)

:::Vancouver planning pages can look a bit like that where ferries are involved. And I suppose "Tsawwassen" looks as obscure as "Käsespätzle" if you're not from the place. Oops, "Käsespätzle" is a food. See? -[[User:Robyn|Robyn]] 17:34, 6 June 2009 (UTC)
 
::::Good to know, so we may not yet have scared the Canadians away who are planning to join in. I really look forward to meeting everyone tomorrow, but just riding my bike to a spot not too far away ''is'' a good thing, when all I have to plan/remeber is filling a bottle of water and taking it with me. --[[User:Zb|Zb]] 17:44, 6 June 2009 (UTC)
 
:::::Definitely not!  Thepiguy may not be huge into planning, but I thrive on it!  I'm more than a little OCD! -[[User:Srs0|Srs0]] 18:06, 6 June 2009 (UTC)
 
::::Robyn, while it's true that Käsespätzle do have a weird, Mönster-evil looking word, I still think that Schienenersatzverkehr is the worst word in this whole mess. --[[User:Zb|Zb]] 18:54, 6 June 2009 (UTC)

AWESOME! I just got THIS: "WARNING: This page is 37 kilobytes long; some browsers may have problems editing pages approaching or longer than 32kb. Please consider breaking the page into smaller sections." Y'all, this is one-hell-of-a-plan! --[[User:Zb|Zb]] 20:07, 6 June 2009 (UTC)
 
 
 
Man, I envy you guys. Do you mind if I give myself a "Democracy is more important than Geohashing"-gratuitous ribbon for not going ;) ? (for those unaware: European elections are on sunday and I haven't voted yet, otherwise I'd have gone on this awesome expedition as well). Have fun!

:What's a good example for democracy if not this insane page of planning a geohash? ... And off I go; first to vote, then to the train, hooray! --[[User:Zb|Zb]] 06:14, 7 June 2009 (UTC)
 
::Good Plan, I'll just do that as well. Does that qualify for a "Democracy Geohash" for voting on your way to the Spot? --[[Baerenfell:Baerenfell]] 08:03, 7 June 2009 (UTC)
 
:::How about this:
 
{{gratuitous ribbon | color = white | icon = Voting.png | latitude = 47 | longitude = 10 | date = 2009-06-07 | achievement = Democracy Geohash Achievement | description = going voting on the way to the | name = Zb and Baerenfell }}
 
:::and for me:
 
{{gratuitous ribbon | color = white | icon = Voting.png | latitude = 47 | longitude = 10 | date = 2009-06-07 | achievement = Democracy is more important than Geohashing Consolidation Prize | description = going voting instead of geohashing, thereby missing the | name = Koepfel }}
