Talk:Pie Geohash

From Geohashing
Revision as of 18:10, 30 January 2010 by imported>HiroProtagonist (discussing proper definition of achievement)

So to clairify, neither store-bought pie nor other homemade baked goods qualify for the achievement? I am happy to exclude the former, because I favour achievements that require personal effort and planning over those that allow you to grab something at a convenience store on the way to the geohash. But it seems a shame not to honour the beautiful geohashing cakes some people have made. -Robyn 22:55, 30 March 2009 (UTC)

As far as I understood, "other homemade baked goods" qualify, too: the template lets you chose "type of pastry baked and offered". And in my opinion it has to be baked by the geohasher him/herself, not bought. - Danatar 00:03, 31 March 2009 (UTC)

So why does the template contradict the achievement description, which only specifies pie. -24.83.1.77 00:51, 31 March 2009 (UTC)

Was this intended as a Pi Day ribbon, or any time of year? -Robyn 04:00, 15 May 2009 (UTC)
I don't know how it was intended, but in the Template it says "Bonus points for doing this on Pi day", which means any other day is acceptable. I would favour including this and the expansion including any kind of home-made bakery in the description (and will just do so, if no one objects soon). Maybe then this achievement will be more widely used - and I get the opportunity of eating more cake etc. at geohashes which is vitally important of course! --HiroProtagonist 18:10, 30 January 2010 (UTC)
