You are about to be fixed, as well as some other things I noticed.

Superior in every way. Good job!

EDIT: If this map took you a few hours to make, then I'd say Sinhai's map can't be more than 10 minutes work.

No, I still plan on it... I'm just not complaining until I get all my history straightened out.

Eh, it's too pixelated for my taste, but since it's a supplement map that matters very little. It definitely does its job and I appreciate the effort you put into it.

Yeah man, I did next to no redrawing. Coloring in the same place of a reused file detracts from quality significantly (ugly pixel shapes). Whenever we get off of these supplements, that person will have to do a detail of a lot of those islands.

No disrespect to Jose, but was it the intention of the mapmakers to allow so many of the Green Sea islands to come under the control of a single player, especially when that player also has a large mainland spot as well?

Strong lungs and a very naughty look.

If Sinhai had any intent, he did not leave us a note or indication for us to consult, and if he did: point me to it.

Talk it over with Joe, if you decide through cooperative history that islands need to be exchanged/deleted/abandoned then very well, just work it in to RP.

Udo you missed quite a bit of my Boreasic pixels/didn't put them there. Look at the map [Bangkok] then look at SupplementK.

I want those removed pixels back.

I say we remove that ugly ass square in Himyar. This isn't anything official, just a lil' brainstorming.

For the record, I did not talk to Sinhai or Catigny about how much of my current spot I could claim. I even said in my application that the amount of pixels I was claiming was what I assumed I could acquire. One of the major problems with Sinhai's maps were that empty plots were just not labeled and differentiated properly, so I took a gamble that I could claim a whole bunch of them and my request would be honored. This gamble was based off other map claiming efforts by other players that, more often than not, were honored by Sinhai. Going by the Supplement K map, that was not completely honored by Catigny, when looking at the northwestern islands, but I indicated to Catigny that I would work with that, no fuss or muss.

I am willing to work out with you a more reasonable number of Green Sea isles I can claim, but I'm curious. Why are you singling me out? Why aren't you calling out Akwesasne and his constant requests for a giant-ass spot, one way bigger than mine? One that, at the rate he's going, he's going to claim the entire continent he's on.
