:When I sorted the achievements into several categories (as a kind of a ToDo-list) a few days ago, this one went right into the "not interested" category because of being virtually impossible to even come near. So I'd strongly support intermediate stages. About a geeky scale - the only numbers that cross my mind there are 2<sup>n and 42. Still, I think it should have some linear scale (because the average effort gets larger for each additional graticule, so in effort it's still above-linear) and not start too low, so a 2<sup>n</sup> isn't probably that great for this achievement. --[[User:Ekorren|Ekorren]] 11:41, 24 February 2009 (UTC)

How about introducing subdivisions for this achievement. Something along the lines of

  • 25 graticules = Bronze/... Graticule Hopper
  • 50 graticules = Silver/... Graticule Hopper
  • 75 graticules = Gold/... Graticule Hopper
  • 100 graticules = THE Graticule Hopper Achievement
