Revision as of 20:03, 24 June 2008

The Achievements page talks of visiting "the geohash in the graticule you were born in for the day on which you were born". Does "day on which you were born" mean the specific decades-ago day on which my birth occurred - effectively giving me a single, static point in space that I can amble over to at my leisure at some future point? Or am I supposed to interpret it as the date on which I was born - one day per year, giving me a randomly-selected location to aim for on the other side of the country? --Youhas 19:55, 24 June 2008 (UTC)

"This can be achieved by visiting the geohash in the graticule you were born in for the day on which you were born. Which would be pretty crazy." I interpret this to mean that you visit the point at your leisure, and the point is the one in the graticule you were born in on the day you were born. As if you went geohashing the same day you were born, but are doing it later. If you were to give birth at a hash, your offspring would automatically achieve this achievement.

I originally thought it meant that you go back to the point you were born on a specific day, but then you'd probably have to visit a delivery room, which may be occupied, and it doesn't really have much to do with geohashing anyway. -- Moose Hole 20:01, 24 June 2008 (UTC)
