This is a proposal made on 2010-06-09. Please leave comments and suggestions on Talk:Fly a kite achievement, indicating your thoughts on the proposal, including:
  • Support - you think this proposal should be added with zero or minor changes
  • Do not oppose - you think it's boring/meh/not for you, but it wouldn't harm to have it created
  • Oppose - you have a specific reason as to why this ribbon should not exist (state this reasoning in your comment)
  • Needs work - you think the achievement should be created after more significant changes have been made

See Proposed achievements for more information on this process.

Info

Earn this achievement through the 'surprinsly not as simple as it sounds' act of flying a kite at a hash point. This is a very hash location and weather dependant achievement - requiring clean winds and open terrain.

  • Definition of 'fly' would be to get the kite off the ground long enough to gain photographic evidence - may be quite challenging if there is only one of you and your kite has two strings but we all like a challenge;
  • There shouldn't need to be strict specifications on the defintion of a kite - i think we all know what a kite is - but for but completeness, a kite should be something (not necessarily a member of the quadrilateral family) attached to a piece of string of at least 10 metres in length;
  • Bonus points obtainable if your kite is home-made or of the plastic bag variety - they fly well.
