Would it be possible to change the shape of Z77 in the update? It is incredibly phallic and has always bothered me. |

I can't make promises that it won't go to waste since I've worked on or completed projects here that later became outdated, such as first "official" military technology system. However, if it goes in the wiki, I wouldn't see that information as wasted. |

>.> You... That's a stretch (to see), but I'll put it in the map thread for Sovy to review. |

Progress on the map update is holding at 0%. Saying that on March 30th I'll be presenting the new map. Some won't like it and complain it was made in MSPaint but it will be a thousand times more editable than the current map we have now. I have tried editing borders on the current map but besides one case that had special circumstances around it I wasn't successful. |

I don't mind if it was made on MS paint. An editable map is more important than a pretty one in my opinion. That way additions, edits, and removals will be quick and easy, and basically anyone can do it! Besides, it's not like a map on paint has to be ugly. I've seen some pretty spectacular stuff made on MSPaint. The map could just be made in a much larger scale than it is right now so it can be more detailed. Since editing it is such a simple task maps for colonies, resources, terrain, climate, etc would be just as simple to make, which would greatly aid in rp and help new players get acquainted. Is this update purely cosmetic or will it be changing other things. Borders would be hard to do if everyone already likes theirs, but it could be an option now, especially if the map is easier to change. |

I could do that too. It take research and diving through lots of old threads, but it'd be fun. |

It's also going to take a lot of creative editing since I'm certain we've directly contradicted ourselves a few times. But it'd be worth it to have a consistent history. Florinthus read my mind and suggested posting this information in the wiki. Basically, I want the wiki to be free from all the rambling we do here on the forum. I want it to be an at-a-glance formal "document" versus the forum's organic assembly. To paraphrase what I said to him, the forum is a rough draft and the wiki should be a final product. |

How about for those interested, people can volunteers for a region, and it'd be less of a burden on just Orchyre doing it. Plus it'd hopefully take less time. I don't mind doing either Lib. or Xia.

I guess I could do some as well, keep me away from Zephyria though, before the whole continent is colonized by someone (unless that's cool, in which, BRING IT ON ).
