Talk:Déjà vu geohash achievement

I would like to add the requirement that you must have been there before the geohash was announced, not only on the previous day. (And to give Danatar a honorary mention for pointing out this flaw in the definition.) If you all and especially Danatar agree. -- Relet 23:17, 15 October 2008 (UTC)

No question. That was the intention. -Robyn 23:43, 15 October 2008 (UTC)

Hey, they're trying to steal my achievement, what about the section "Cheating is encouraged for this achievement"? ;-) But I can understand you and in general I agree. I'll just have to think about a loophole to keep the newly created ribbon, perhaps "this ribbon was earned before the rules changed" or something similar. Danatar 07:09, 16 October 2008 (UTC)

Look at the edit history. My summary comment as I edited it was exactly that: "Danatar still gets to keep his ribbon for exploiting the loophole" or something like that. I no way want to take away your ribbon. You stole it fair and square! -Robyn 13:17, 16 October 2008 (UTC)

How close does the hash have to be to the place I went before? Tomorrow's 50 11 geohash will be as close as 30 to 40 m to an old tracklog. Does that count?--Reinhard 14:09, 25 June 2009 (UTC) The rules say "on the same site". This wouldn't necessarily mean exactly on the same spot by the meter. Is your old visit on the same street, in the same corner of the park, on the same meadow? Then I would probably count it for myself. Other people counted it for passing the nearest road, which IMHO stretches the rules too far. I think you need to decide yourself whether you can justify to call that the same place. Maybe take the ribbon, and try to replace it with a better one as soon as possible. That's what I did with my first deja vu, which was definitely close enough, but not provable. --Ekorren 18:30, 25 June 2009 (UTC)
