Talk:Ambassador achievement

IS there scope for a failed Ambassadorship here, to encourage trying to gain entry to those more difficult areas? I'm thinking it might be fun to call it the Ulrich Von Hassel award, or something along these lines. Any thoughts? -- UnwiseOwl 03:57, 27 November 2008 (UTC)

It's clearly No Trespassing if you fail, and you can always describe it in further detail yourself. I don't think we need a special award. (Who was von Hassel, anyway?) --Ekorren 08:05, 27 November 2008 (UTC)

So, if we get permission to head in the exact direction of the hashpoint, but find it is 150 feet over the back of the property so we can't go there, it would seem like we should get an Ambassadorship, since we did talk to someone to get permission, even though it wasn't quite enough. (The award can't quite depend on getting there, as Raptors might disable you before you actually got there.) But it does seem wierd to get both an Ambassador and an No Trespassing. What do folks think? Jiml 00:42, 9 June 2009 (UTC)

Passport suggestion

To stress our respect for property consider adding something to the effect that - in fact participants show their respect for land and the environment through a policy of leaving the area cleaner than they found it by cleaning up any litter they might find. Maybe some reference to the Geotrash_Geohash Achievement award. --Bos 07:57, 3 April 2009 (UTC)
