Hey, welcome to Seattle geohashing! Glad to see someone else excited about this besides Thomcat and myself. If you're thinking of going on Saturday (or any day), just post about it on the Seattle page or its discussion page, and that will let whoever else know so that planning can happen if multiple people want to go. We do the same, and we all have our watchlist stuff enabled so that we don't have to constantly check the website to find out what's up. I recommend you do the same - go to your preferences, and in the watchlist tab check off "Add pages I edit to my watchlist" and "Add pages I create to my watchlist" (at the bottom), and then in the main tab check off "Email me when a page on my watchlist is changed". (If you feel like it.) That makes the planning/social aspects of the site a lot easier.

Happy hashing!

Thanks so much for the warm welcome! I'm kind of upset that I never got into this years back but better late than never. It's been so much fun going through and seeing what such an amazing community can put together! I'm pretty noobish when it comes to wikis so your advice is much appreciated, I'll get on that pronto. Definitely had to learn a lot about formatting and linking and such today. I have been all over my friends today telling them about it and getting them excited. My roommate and 2-4 others have expressed a lot of interest so hopefully I can drag them along. My understanding so far is that the graticule's discussion page is for things like "thinking about going out with such and such people at such and such time at a later date" whereas making an expedition page is for when you've mapped out the location and firmly decided you're attempting it. Is that about right?

Looking forward to some adventures!
