Now what if I took a puppet to the geohash location and operated it there? --CJ 13:49, 30 October 2008 (UTC)

You'd get the Circus Geohash achievement, of course. --Ilpadre 13:53, 30 October 2008 (UTC)
We had an edit conflict as I attempted to post the same comment. -Robyn 13:57, 30 October 2008 (UTC)

Note

Now that this award has been taken a few times it seems that it has a function as the long-distance equivalent of the Drag-along achievement. If someone who has not yet created a userpage goes to their first geohash at your urging, but at a time or place where you are not able to accompany them, then you qualify for the puppet master. (If they already had a userpage on the wiki, then they were already a geohasher, so didn't meet the "not a geohasher" qualification). Of course if they return from the expedition and create a page to report their expedition, they are now a geohasher, so no one else can use them as a puppet.

Is this a result of people choosing puppets who might like to be geohashers, or is geohashing just so cool that when you do it once, you're hooked? No new information here, just an interesting development. -Robyn 22:00, 19 July 2009 (UTC)

Multiple Puppets?

I'm wondering ... should there be an achievement for having puppets at the greatest number of points on the same day, or something? I'd think that could be fun to orchestrate. -- Angel 09:38, 1 March 2012 (EST)
