Discussion

I added to the table for monthly totals. The Boston crew led for the first few months then vanished - is there an expiration date for internet memes and mobs? I also added the monthly leaders. My intention is to update this once a month, and keep an eye out for any old expedition page edits that might change the totals. I'd also like to add something to track metro areas and split cities - Vancouver and Surrey are together, etc. --Thomcat 18:43, 2 October 2008 (UTC)

Previous totals

These were mostly the work of relet, Jevanyn and [[User:Thomcat.

This page tracks the most active graticules, all time and for the preceding month. The count will be based on the number of meetup pages are connected to each graticule, based on the most linked-to categories that are "Meetup in lat, long". The meetup pages themselves will be passingly checked to see if anyone actually made it. This page is currently manually edited, so it's not complete. I'm hoping to work out a top-ten in each category.

Current ranking

as of 2008-08-20

One measure of graticule activity is the number of meetups attributed to that graticule. With no attempt to verify that geohashes were successful, or even attempted, I have gone through the wiki Meetup by location subcategories that have the most meetup links as of 03:00 UTC on the 20th of August 2008, and created a top five list, which is actually top seven, thanks to ties.

Place	Number	Graticule	Meets in category
1	34	Boston, Massachusetts	42 -71
2	32	Seattle, Washington	47 -122
3	17	San Francisco, California	37 -122
3	17	Cincinnati, Ohio	39 -84
4	16	Berlin, Germany	52 13
5	14	Portland, Oregon	45 -122
5	14	Sacramento, California	38 -121

 This page tracks the most active graticules, all time and for the preceding month.  The count will be based on the number of meetup pages are connected to each graticule, based on [[:Special:Mostlinkedcategories|the most linked-to categories that are "Meetup in ''lat, long''"]].  The meetup pages themselves will be passingly checked to see if anyone actually made it.  This page is currently manually edited, so it's not complete.  I'm hoping to work out a top-ten in each category.
