For a lot of topics on the wiki, you can find the answers with the search box at the left. The peeron app will correctly calculate the coordinates for your graticule, so you don't need to worry about the 30W app unless you are building your own implementation. -Robyn 15:53, 13 October 2008 (UTC)

Thanks Robyn - I have discovered how to make the map work since my last login (it wasn't fully functioning back then, at least for me for some reason) and it is all kinds of win. Also my brain has been rebooted and I finally understand the W30 stuff (particularly after figuring out it's in the middle of the Atlantic). As for searching, I am often somewhat fail.
You're also going to dislike me for my plans for the evening - a 3-graticule, double-time traveller, double-teleporting (I may have inadvertently created a new category there... being in two places at the same time. or the same place at an earlier time. erm. my brain now hurts) multihash. Which requires much use of maximum quasi-legal ("whatever the speed camera won't trigger for") progress across much of the breadth of my country. However I won't be wasting any more energy than I can get away with, given how expensive it is round here and how broke I am (hey, I've dodged a lot of previous ones on the grounds of ludicrous distance, so this is making up for it - so far it seems most of the ones in my graticule are WELL out of my area, almost clustered around the opposite side of it. But not so far that it makes sense to try one in a neighbouring grat. hey ho, it's saved me time & money & pollution) ... plus I reckon as I'm doing it at 1am (pre clock change) thru to 2am (2 hours later, post clock change), it's potentially a bit more efficient than crawling to a 4pm one through unexpected traffic. And I'll probably be taking my bike in the back as some of it will be a half-mile-plus offroad and I don't fancy having to run both ways then drive like a demon. Tahrey 22:01, 25 October 2008 (UTC)
Why would I dislike you for that? I'm not the one that has to write up the expedition reports in a way that makes sense. -Robyn 00:52, 26 October 2008 (UTC)
