    Ok, my map geekiness hasn't finished yet. I think it is always helpful to have a frame of reference whenever you look at maps. So since we are playing a terra map and our continent is supposed to relate to the "old world" in real life I transposed a map of the old world over our continent:



    But since it doesn't exactly line up properly, I moved things around to provide a more relevant and direct comparison to see how much land we are each controling. It is really interesting. Especially me and China.

              So, you want the fun of closing the old thread and starting the new thread, but you don't take your responsibility by creating the new thread with all important information! Shame on you!

              Not sure yet if I'm going to take my responsibility though

                It just goes to show that if you put one randomly shaped object over another you'll see all sorts of things...

                Seriously though, I've thoroughly enjoyed all your maps ozzy. I love doing that myself but I don't think I have the right software. Maybe I stick to spreadsheets...

                  I was just about to pester you all about posting, but it looks like Levi beat me to the punch with an excellent contribution. Good stuff.

                  As for the rest of you...

                      This isnt the one post I wanted to make this week

                      I have to go out of town tonight and wont be back until Saturday. It is another work "emergency" where they send me somewhere with no notice. Due to the short notice, Im ok with the AI taking over for me. However, if somebody has a sub, that would be groovy baby! Yea!

                            I think Lz posted in the last incarnation of this thread and promised that he would play.
