From Geohashing
Edit troubles
So I uploaded the pics using names based off of another page and they are not appearing: any suggestions?
- Hi - case must be exact, in your case the pictures were uploaded with lower case jpg not upper JPG. I tend to copy/paste from the upload log (also visible on the recent changes list to the left). Finally, you can sign your posts with the signature button in the bar above - 2nd from the right. --Thomcat 00:01, 20 December 2012 (EST)
- Thomcat- aahhhh... thanks bunches. I'm still learning wiki commands (for both here and work) --Whoa Knock 07:57, 20 December 2012 (EST)
hashpoint on the day after
So, if you hit a hash mark on the day after, but before the opening bell, it still counts? I'm going to say yes...
- Agreed, and I've done it here on the Pacific time zone, though it's a lot harder ;) You have to make sure to create your page as an expedition for the previous day, however - it's just really late in that day. --Thomcat 00:04, 20 December 2012 (EST)
- I'm afraid that most folks wouldn't consider that a "same-day" geohashing expedition. (Non-Retro's end at midnight local time.) It is certainly is a Retrohash, which does count some, but many achievements don't then apply. But retro's get a lot of credit in my book: They do get you out into the world and exploring, which really is one of the points of Geohashing, after all. Jiml 00:31, 20 December 2012 (EST)
- Nice, my second hashpoint and I'm already causing problems ;-) I'll split the diff and call it a Ret-Hash --Whoa Knock 07:57, 20 December 2012 (EST)
