I was thinking more of a GVRD regional... but this map is soooo cool! Thepiguy 18:30, 25 August 2008 (UTC)
On that note, it would appear that the entire GVRD is contained entirely withing the 49 -123/-122 graticules. This is very disappointing. I was hoping for more of... a challenge I guess. My friend suggested a cool idea for another achievement though, visiting all 8 graticules surrounding your home location. I said it should be called the Minesweeper achievement. =) Thepiguy 18:44, 25 August 2008 (UTC)
That's fabulous. Perfect name. Propose what we should do if you're on the coast and there is just open ocean in one or more of the surrounding graticules? Free square? What should the icon be? The minesweeper happy guy with shades? -Robyn 19:20, 25 August 2008 (UTC)
- Good choice of icon. Neighbors is another good name for it, but I suspect minesweeper will be the winner. --Thomcat 19:24, 25 August 2008 (UTC)
- What about a picture of the dreaded minesweeper's "8" ? Although, that isn't very colourful, and the shades guy is pretty cool...
- I don't know how the free square would work. Is it really fare to give out free squares just because of water? The graticule above Vancouver is just as inaccessible as water, if not more so. I think this is destined to be one of those achievements that are very hard to get unless you have a very nice graticule.
- This is how mean I would make it, for sure. -Robyn 19:52, 25 August 2008 (UTC)
