Page under construction.

This describes an achievement in which a geohasher (the master) is unable to reach a geohash for some reason such as disability, having other commitments, or the geohash being in a restricted area, but manages to convince someone who does have the ability (the puppet) to reach the geohash to do so and provide proof. The puppet need not know that s/he is geohashing.

Examples

1. You are unable to obtain permission to enter a restricted area but you hand your camera to someone who does have access, and s/he successfully accesses and photographs the geohash.

2. The geohash is located at an shopping mall in another city. You obtain a map of the mall and then persuade you puppet to buy you something at the appropriate store and send it to you with the receipt. Your dated receipt along with a link to or scan of the mall map is your proof.

3. The geohash is located 500 m out to sea and you don't have a boat, but you see a windsurfer going back and forth through the geohash. You photograph this, wait on the beach for them to land, and then get your photo taken with them. (This is the temporal distortion puppet master geohash where your meeting is actually you persuading them to go to the geohash in the past.

The puppet cannot be a geohasher. Causing emergency or other public services to be dispatched to the geohash is stupid and does not qualify for this achievement.
