XKCD-100 Geohash Achievement

Anyone who attends 100 XKCD Saturday meetups has achieved the XKCD-centurion. A Saturday meetup has been achieved when it is Saturday and the geohasher:

  • is present at the official coordinates for that date, at the official meet-up time (4 p.m. unless otherwise established for that graticule),

or

  • meets other geohashers who are trying to reach the official coordinates, whether or not anyone succeeds,

or

  • meets other geohashers at a prearranged alternate Saturday meeting location.

That is, you either have to be in the right place at the right time, or you have to actually meet someone. It's not a Saturday meetup if you dash by at a random time. The purpose of this award is to encourage actual meetups with other geohashers. These criteria are intended to support that while not eliminating opportunities for active geohashers in difficult, unlucky, or unpopulated graticules.

Note: Unless you go for some Time-Traveller Geohashes along the way, it is impossible to earn this achievement until the 100th Saturday since the Algorithm was published, 17 April 2010.
