I always like pictures of industrial hash stuff, and that brand of GPS looks rather familiar to me! As far as achievements go, it's generally a "put them up yourself if you feel you achieved it" attitude. From my own perspective, I've only seen people suggest more achievements that haven't been taken/considered. -- [[User:DrCanadianNinja|DrCanadianNinja]] 21:40, 26 August 2012 (EDT)

I always like pictures of industrial hash stuff, and that brand of GPS looks rather familiar to me! As far as achievements go, it's generally a "put them up yourself if you feel you achieved it" attitude. From my own perspective, I've only seen people suggest more achievements that haven't been taken/considered. -- DrCanadianNinja 21:40, 26 August 2012 (EDT)

Yes, if you have earned an achievement, then go ahead and claim it and put the ribbon on your expedition page. (Some people like to put all the ribbons they've earned on their userpage, too.) If your achievement is believable, then you will probably find that everyone believes you without too much need for 'proof', although most geohashers like to document their 'proof' with photos anyway. 'Proof' can be a difficult concept, anyway -- even if a hypothetical geohasher has a photo of a train ticket he/she bought, and a photo of them getting on the train, it is still possible that they could have got off the train again and used the car. So just be sensible, and that will be fine. We enjoy reading about your expeditions more than we enjoy quibbling your achievement ribbons, anyway!  :-) Good luck with the next ones. — Benjw  {talk} 04:15, 27 August 2012 (EDT)
