Are Kerbin Circumnavigation challenges still a thing?

[Pandemic]

I was always a fan of Circumnavigation challenges around kerbin. Are they still a thing or do I need to bring it back?

Bring it back

Add flair.

As I type this, the Elcano Challenge is the very next thread in the list. That's all about circumnavigations, of any body in the stock Kerbol system.

How did you manage to have 50+ posts but no rep?

I was around before rep was a thing.

Maybe circumnavigation isn't where my head is. 

For example, there was a challenge up a few years ago to visit all the stock ground stations. That rocked cuz I'd been literally everywhere but my own back yard. I did it three times in three craft, including the stock Albatross as an endurance challenge.

Mebbe 'Hit certain landmarks' or 'Highest/lowest elevation'.. 'Pole to Pole'.. 'LA to NY'.. 'Cannonball Run'..

Yeah, from what I remember there was one for most circumnavigations around kerbin below 10,000m, fastest single lap, etc. I like the idea of a stock craft challenge. I'd need someone to do up some award images though... unless you want a jenky paint image.

If you mean airborne circumnavigation, there’s this challenge.   

I’m the current caretaker for The Elcano Challenge, which is ground-based circumnavigating.  I assure you that the Elcano challenge is very much active and alive.

As for the the airborne challenge linked above, the most recent post was fall of last year.  Not sure if I’d call that inactive, but it could certainly use some fresh posts.

On the other hand, a fresh and different take on airborne circumnavigations might find some traction.
