Location

The hash is located in the open area of the Erfurt Messe.

Participants

Plans

Mampfred took the chance to shoot a friendly request to the Erfurt Messe and ask them to visit the spot today. There's a million things to go wrong such as people not reading the request today or they not having a clue as to what he's on about. But hey, sometimes you get lucky ...

Feep (talk) gonna come along around four with cookies, depending how badly his GPS messes up, and stay a few hours until his laptop battery gives out.

Just for completeness sake: I'm not sure if that's a reaction to my mail but I won't be able to get there myself as I didn't expect to get in and made other plans. I'd be delighted if you get to the spot though and tell us about it :D (no need to wait around for hours in that case ;) - Mampfred (talk) 09:59, 19 February 2014 (EST)

Nah, I have a program that notifies me when there's a spot nearby (no car!) and this one was within 4km, so I decided to drop by. :-) And yeah, the spot itself is unreachable (though the gate guard was very nice!) I'm gonna sit at the entrance until my battery gives out, just in case. Eating these delicious cookies. All to myself. Mmmhm. Feep (talk)

Hah, fair enough, enjoy the cookies then. And post a photo so that we can at least properly document the attempt :) - Mampfred (talk) 10:31, 19 February 2014 (EST)

Photos taken, will post when I get home. (mobile phone net is expensive!) Feep (talk) 11:02, 19 February 2014 (EST)

It's getting cold. Gonna go home while it's still light out.Feep (talk) 11:28, 19 February 2014 (EST)

Photos

Sadly, the location was on private property and the (friendly) gate guard stopped me. The location was behind the white building on the left. The sign means "Not a visitor's parking spot".
Pictured: friendly gate guard
Undeterred, I settled down to wait for an hour. Sadly, nobody else showed, but I got some work done nonetheless.
Pictured: Feep (talk). Also pictured: delicious cookies.
