Talk:Valentine's achievement
From Geohashing
Pros:
- I think it's neat. But I'm heavily biased, since this is my hashiversary.
- xkcd is a webcomic of romance, sarcasm, math, and language.
Cons:
- There are millions of holidays out there. If this is approved, why not also have an achievement for Bunsen Burner Day?
- Valentine's Day is neither personal nor directly Geohashing-related. If we look at the Annual Events achievements, they are either personal (e.g. Birthday), directly Geohashing-related (e.g. Geohashing Day), or both (e.g. Hashiversary). The Towel Day achievement is the exception, but just going geohashing on that day isn't enough, you also have to bring a towel. Maybe this achievement should at least require bringing a date?
Do not oppose, but I think a better alternative would be turning the Towel Day achievement into a general Holiday achievement that requires you to go Geohashing on that particular day and in the spirit on that particular day. E.g. bringing a Towel on Towel Day, spending time with a date on Valentine's Day, lighting a Bunsen burner on Bunsen Burner Day, singing the national anthem on the national holiday, dressing as Darth Vader on Star Wars Day, you get the idea. --Fippe (talk) 05:58, 18 February 2024 (UTC)
