Talk:Graticule Unlocked
From Geohashing

What is sufficient proof of being there? I just found out I wasn't the first in the Dortmund graticule(51 7) yesterday, but there was no page of the Dortmund graticule before I created it. And the real first hash contains no pictures or proof in any other form.--Arvid 10:44, 2 August 2008 (UTC)
- I looked at the geohash in question, and think it's a planning page. At least until somebody decides to post their story there. Someday I hope to post a table somewhere, but until then here's my worksheet --Thomcat 17:39, 12 August 2008 (UTC)
Does a successful Origin Geohash count as a Virgin Graticule award, if no-one has ever achieved a hash in the graticule previously? --CJ 06:39, 31 August 2008 (UTC)
- I would say no. I wouldn't count it myself. I see the Origin (or Displaed Origin) as a back-up geohash for the day that you can't get to the real geohash. -Robyn 12:27, 31 August 2008 (UTC)
What about one like this? No proof, plus if you zoom in on the map the point is not in the road. --excellentdude 06:21, 12 February 2009 (UTC)
- I saw it, and I think it's pretty weak, but I didn't say anything because I expect that she will do a better geohash within a couple of weeks and then it won't really matter which one is counted as the virgin geohash. If someone else come along in that graticule and does a real geohash before Kortney does, then there's a challenge. I didn't want to jump on a newbie and say "hey you did it wrong!" -Robyn 06:38, 12 February 2009 (UTC)
