Talk:Thumbs Up Geohash

From Geohashing
Revision as of 15:20, 17 July 2009 by imported>Meghan (Is planned hitch-hiking really hitch-hiking?)

Just to protect this achievement from extinction, I once hitchhiked partway to the geohash, but didn't get to the point, so couldn't claim this ribbon, and have twice hitchhiked back. I'll earn it some day, I promise! -Robyn 04:06, 15 May 2009 (UTC)

Honourable mentions?

People who hitchhiked while on an expedition, but didn't meet all the requirements: Robyn (link?), thepiguy (his first hitchhiking experience ever!), Danatar (his first hitchhiking experience ever!)

What about modifying the Achievement? I don't see any need to have to Hitchhike the entire way. It's just as fun/interesting/exciting/strange/internets to hitchhike part way. Thepiguy 11:25, 17 July 2009 (UTC)

It already says: "most or all of the way to the hashpoint". I also think you qualify for a honorable mention, though. Hitchhiking isn't that strange or difficult, so I would like to keep the ribbon for someone actually achieving to hitch a significant part of the way to the hash. -- relet 12:57, 17 July 2009 (UTC)

I hitchhiked again recently, and reached the point, but none of my hitchhiking was "most" of the way. -Robyn 15:04, 17 July 2009 (UTC)

I would support opening a discussion about modifying this acheivement, especially since we are finding that most occurances of thumbing a ride are spur of the moment decisions. --Meghan 15:20, 17 July 2009 (UTC)
