Criticise away ...

Support as I proposed it! This is certainly version one and it will need to be tweaked. I lifted the icon from OSM. Perhaps it could link to OSM in the finished ribbon. -- Sourcerer 16:49, 4 July 2011 (EDT)
Support. What I really like about it, is the fact that it can be gotten without a 'successful' expedition. I think there should be more ribbons like that. Too often I see a hashpoint that looks nice, but then I decide not to go just because it's on privately owned landed and probably unreachable. Going would mean I can just add a report to my list of failed expeditions and that's not very fun. Just *going* on an expedition should be promoted, the achievements are really too much pointed at reaching the exact hash point. Getting close would be nice too, if I could claim some kind of reward for that. Just my thoughts. Not even sure if this is the right place to put them. Antior 17:11, 4 July 2011 (EDT)
Support. Especially those of us in more remote graticules can find themselves in very rarely traveled parts of the world. I think this is a great way to encourage geohashers to keep their eyes open and help us learn about what's out there! Jack1254 21:23, 27 September 2011 (EDT)
