I say it '''needs work''' but think if reworded and adjusted a decent amount, I could move up to do not oppose. I don't particularly care for the littering, so we would have to make a clause saying you must clean up after yourself before you leave. Also it seems a bit directed at the Christian demographic with the decorations and specificity of December. I am not a fan of such a specific timing in any achievement. Perhaps we could adjust that to be "seasonally appropriate decorations at or near the hashpoint". --[[User:Aperfectring|aperfectring]] 16:52, 29 January 2010 (UTC) | I say it '''needs work''' but think if reworded and adjusted a decent amount, I could move up to do not oppose.

Oh wow. This one has gone entirely unnoticed. Hmm. I do not oppose with a tendency towards support. I'm a little concerned about the littering involved. -- relet 16:39, 29 January 2010 (UTC)
