I like the playing cards as markers idea. But you should list on your user page which cards were left as markers and where. I feel like there is an opportunity to play some sort of card game with that... Two people doing the same thing, treating every five cards like a hand, playing some variant of poker...
Also, you're practically the closest active geohasher to my area, so we're like almost-neighbors! Hi, Neighbor.

- I actually was doing that on my page, it just wasn't terribly obvious at first. The 5 right now just links to the one Gainesville hash, but it's hard to see that the 5 is actually a link; plus it needs someone to actually click on it. That'll change in the coming days, if not today.
- Really? I'm the closest to Memphis? Hey there, neighbor! Here's hoping there's less farming private property in the future, eh?

- Make sure the link points to geohashing.org. I like the idea. :) -- relet 20:20, 19 March 2012 (EDT)
- Yeah, I wrote that at the hash and didn't realize my mistake until about ten hours later. Next time! -- DrCanadianNinja 13:01, 20 March 2012 (EDT)
I see the link now. An easy change would be to just make the links bold or underlined.
Yeah, okay, I guess there's some folks in Atlanta? I'll admit, I didn't really look that hard before saying that :/ Whatever, we're still neighbors. And yes, far too much private property, much of which is of the "kinda (really) sketchy" variety...

- Well, part of it is that I always mistake Tennessee and Kentucky in my head, so I was thinking a little too far out. Neighbors are still neighbors! -- DrCanadianNinja 13:01, 20 March 2012 (EDT)
- TN and KY are pretty much the same, anyway. You can hear the banjos on either side of the state line... -MayorOfBoxTown 15:21, 20 March 2012 (EDT)
Hola! I live in Somerville, MA but have family in Gainesville, so I'll probably poke you if I'm in the area (holidays) and there's a plausible hashpoint. :-) -- Phyzome 17:42, 21 March 2012 (EDT)
- Depends on the holiday, unfortunately - Christmas and Thanksgiving, for instance, I might be in Tampa, if not Canada. Still, it'd be interesting to try! -- DrCanadianNinja 14:18, 24 March 2012 (EDT)
Happy birthday!
Hey, I'm going to be in the Jacksonville area in June or early July, let's try to get a meetup together. I'll write back when I get a better idea of my itinerary. -- Jevanyn
- Thanks! I saw your note on the Jacksonville graticule page, but wasn't sure anything happened outside of that. Sounds good to me! - DrCanadianNinja
