Oppose - A dependency on the behaviour of others makes it virtually impossible to 'strive for', and it's incredibly difficult to calculate. Furthermore, it can't be tied to any specific expedition but instead relates to a cluster of them: because it's calculated in hindsight, it's impossible to say which of the expeditions "brought about" the award. --DanQ (talk) 07:44, 15 August 2018 (UTC)

Oppose mostly due to the reasons provided above, but also due to the achievement indirectly encouraging other geohashers not to go on expeditions to allow someone to claim this achievement. --KerrMcF (talk) 01:45, 27 February 2024 (UTC)
