Do you think we can get the award for an alternate? - Robyn 21:17, 29 February 2012 (EST)

Oppose. Alternate locations are an ok means to make saturday meetups possible where they are desired by a certain local group, however, meeting up at some arbitrary location may be fun but isn't really geohashing, is it? There's no adventure involved, basically (Of course you can choose to add an adventure but it's not required and you can do that with any kind of trip). Also, alternate location meetups are only possible in regions where there even are enough people to get a meetup together. So, getting together an alternate meetup is a question of being part of a large enough local group, basically. On the other hand, I would fully support to give this ribbon out to people who seriously tried to get as close as possible to the hashpoint but failed for inaccessibility. --Ekorren 03:44, 1 March 2012 (EST)
