Talk:2016-09-22 global

My congratulations go out to you two. 2016 so far has now produced five successful globalhashes--more than any year before. And NWoodruff now has me beat by one. Thunk (talk) 23:59, 22 September 2016 (UTC)

Very nice!! But why are you wearing nametags? I guess we'll find out. I will also add Million zillion as a participant so that he shows up in automatic stuff... -- OtherJack (talk) 01:36, 23 September 2016 (UTC)

nm, it's done now... :) -- OtherJack (talk)

Thanks, and the nametags are sort of an inside joke. I made them for DragonCon this year for some friends and myself, and I had some left over. Here is a close-up of the tags - they all look the same. :) -- Million zillion (talk) 01:52, 23 September 2016 (UTC)

Ha, I had to google the phrase... I am clearly living under a number of rocks... -- OtherJack (talk) 01:56, 23 September 2016 (UTC)

Yeah, they were a hit at the con, where we all live under very different kinds of rocks... But it was better with an earlier version I made two years ago, right after GotG was released. Timing is everything. -- Million zillion (talk) 02:02, 23 September 2016 (UTC)

Does it count as a Virgin Graticule if the first hashpoint reached is a globalhash? Petek (talk) 16:34, 23 September 2016 (UTC)

My instinct would be no, since a global hashpoint is not a hashpoint in the original sense... the globalhashing game was made up well after the original geohash algorithm. But not sure what others think? -- OtherJack (talk) 17:04, 23 September 2016 (UTC)
