Location
Across the street from an iconic college dive bar.
what3words: ///stretch.pounce.mincing (what is this?)
Participants
- Faith, sent as a proxy by Gabe
Plans
Gabe noticed that the hash for the day was very near his alma mater. Even better than that, the hash was located just across the street from an iconic local dive bar which he and his friends frequented while at university. Unfortunately, he no longer lived in the area, and thus was forced to call for backup.
Convincing Faith to Help
Gabe turned to his sister for help. First, he attempted to briefly explain the concept of geohashing.
"The internet tells you where to go! It's called 'Geohashing'." -Gabe
"If you eat a hashbrown at the place, could you call it 'Geo-hashbrowning'?" -Faith
*facepalm* (although perhaps this should be considered as an achievement?)
After nearly convincing Faith to go, Gabe made a potentially-fatal error.
"If you go instead of me, then I can still log it and I get the 'Puppet-Master Achievement'!" -Gabe
"OH SO NOW I'M JUST YOUR PUPPET, HUH???? IS THAT WHAT I AM???"
*Gabe, to himself* "dangitdangitdangit"
After calming Faith down, she agreed to visit the hash location.
Expedition
Faith drove to the location and only needed to pull the vehicle to the side of the road to reach the hash, since it was located at the edge of the street. However, she failed to screenshot the coordinates of her location and only sent pictures of the physical location and of herself sitting in the car. Whether this blunder was due to a lack of explanation by Gabe, or simply forgetfulness on her part was not determined, as Gabe felt it unwise to bring up the topic in conversation again.

Achievements
