The Cartographer is busy with real life. Such things often happen. He said he still wished to pursue the map when time was available. So for now, it is on Vacation.

Thats fine as long as it doesnt go into the furnace.

1 Month since last post. Hope this map maker hasn't lost his internet connection. I've always really really liked the look of this map and would love to play.

Don't panic. Andy said he was in contact and that the map maker will be back to complete his... masterpiece.

Since maritovw began in July and finished in late September I'm going to take a wild stab in the dark and suggest he's a dilligent student.

The map maker expressed interest to finish it, but he has real life priorities first.

Wisse · Post by **Wisse** » Sat Mar 24, 2007 3:01 am

unit 2 why do you always double pos because if it is jus for post count that is sad but if not i suggest you use the edit feature

maritovw · Post by **maritovw** » Sun Jul 08, 2007 3:03 am

hello everyone

first of all, i'd like to ask for your pardon for letting all of you abandoned and waiting for such a long time.

to be honest, i had completely forgotten about this site since i last talked to andy. nonetheless i really doubt i would have had much free time to work on the map...

today i suddenly remembered about it and came to check the site again. i'm currently starting the semester in university and i might have some free time to work on the map.

i'd like it if you could make like a summary of the changes that the map still needs, so i can make them all at once and then you can say if its ok.

Qwert · Post by **Qwert** » Sun Jul 08, 2007 3:54 am

um,its these a second map of caribean,because i se some caribean map in play?

reverend_kyle · Post by **reverend_kyle** » Sun Jul 08, 2007 3:58 am

this one actually looks good.

edbeard · Post by **edbeard** » Sun Jul 08, 2007 4:00 am

there's also the whole totally different zoom thing going on too

reverend_kyle · Post by **reverend_kyle** » Sun Jul 08, 2007 4:05 am

yeah, which is why this looks good in my opinion. The small islands hurt my eyes that the other one has alot of.

I don't know if it really matters, but I don't think El Salvador & Nicaragua actually border each other (we had to dip into Honduras for a bit when I travelled from Guate to CR a few years ago). I think Honduras has a bit of pacific coast just on that inlet.
Apart from that total pickiness, and what was said earlier about the Greater Antilles bonus being maybe a little low (comparatively) I think this looks great!

cramill · Post by **cramill** » Tue Jul 10, 2007 9:39 am

Yeah, El Salvador and Nicaragua don't touch.

maritovw · Post by **maritovw** » Tue Jul 10, 2007 5:32 pm

you're right... el salvador & nicaragua don't actually touch, but i made them border each other for playability purposes... that makes central america less like a "corridor" where you would have to conquer all of its territories to go from one end to another

i agree with the bonus... maybe 5 would be ok?

maritovw · Post by **maritovw** » Wed Jul 18, 2007 6:58 pm

so, does anybody has another suggestion besides moving the title??

Gilligan · Post by **Gilligan** » Fri Jul 20, 2007 11:25 am

I have a few things.

1) To be geographically correct, you can't get to Alabama by the border from Louisiana without crossing Mississippi.
2) Is it Mexico D.F. or Veracruz D.F.? It is kind of unclear.
3) I think the title is fine where it is...not many other places to put it.
4) The font of the +2, the yellowish one, is kind of hard to read.

Other than that, it is all set
