So yeah, it was not quite the Migration this time. After finding out that most of the people I had alerted were away for the weekend or on business travel, the elation subsided. And that to a degree that I was still slacking about at home at the designated meetup time, searching for stuff (I am ever more amazed at the perseverance with which I manage to misplace my GPS. Not like I wouldn't use it daily as a phone, if I hadn't misplaced it) and waiting for lyx to return so that at least we could go hashing together.

Oh, wait - lyx? Hadn't I told her about the plans? That was when the phone rang. "Hey! Where are you?!" - She had been waiting for an hour at the hash, with not even me showing up. *gulp* I quickly gathered all the hashing related items I had found by now and mounted my bike. Maybe fifteen minutes later, I found her waiting on the bench near the hash.

Expedition (relet)

So yeah, it was not quite the Migration this time. After finding out that most of the people I had alerted were away for the weekend or on business travel, the elation subsided. And that to a degree that I was still slacking about at home at the designated meetup time, searching for stuff (I am ever more amazed at the perseverance with which I manage to misplace my GPS. Not like I wouldn't use it daily as a phone, if I hadn't misplaced it) and waiting for lyx to return so that at least we could go hashing together.

Oh, wait - lyx? Hadn't I told her about the plans? That was when the phone rang. "Hey! Where are you?!" - She had been waiting for an hour at the hash, with not even me showing up. *gulp* I quickly gathered all the hashing related items I had found by now and mounted my bike. Maybe fifteen minutes later, I found her waiting on the bench near the hash.

  • Lyx had already marked the place with chalks, and scouted the area.

  • The hash was right on a streetlight.

  • I managed a stupid grin. Lyx would probably have fletched her teeth.

  • The most prominent features of the Tilla Durieux place, aside from the tilted grassscape, are giant see-saws. 'And they blocked them!

  • Even though the pink box on the satellite view wasn't there anymore, there was another phone booth in line of sight.

  • Unfortunately, our phone booths are not very suitable for stuffing.

  • But we did our best.

  • We proceeded to find geocache GCT1CC, which would have been visible from the hash, were it not for the corner of a house.

  • And we had a cocktail at the Caroshi place, with a view on the hash, waiting for possible late arrivals.

  • Our view was partially obstructed by a cow.

  • When we were back, someone had parked right on the hash! But the Public Order Office is patrolling all the time.

  • He got a ticket for obstruction of a geohash.

We took a different way back, earning me the Tron Soon-to-be-an-Achievement.

Tracklog

The batteries died on our tracklogger, and it was not recorded. But here is the path I took.

Plans

The hash is -RIGHT- in the center of Berlin, on Tilla Durieux Park off Potsdamer Platz. This might be an unique chance to possibly gain:

  • Hashcard achievements
  • Underground achievements (Tiergarten tunnel rail tracks)
  • Hash collision (One traditional, one possible multi in range)
  • Migration (How do we get 50 people together? Free drinks? Slackline?)
  • Tron achievement
  • Walking / Cycling / whatever you need
  • Twister geohash (the ground is only slightly tilted)
  • If these pink boxes are what they seem, we might get a Phonebooth stuffing achievement. Update: confirmed using maps.live.com birds eye view.
  • Pubs are close. I can recommend the Caroshi Bar, of course within line of sight from the hash. :)
  • ...

Suggested plenary time: 6pm! (any comments?)

Bring Games! Twister, Frisbee, ...
Collective karoshi at quarter to 8pm with happy hour cocktails @ http://www.caroshi.info/
