Hey guys, I recently found out about an interesting feature available on the net. It's a worldmap, where KMans users can place a marker showing where in this big crazy world we live. The link is here, and so far I think only KMan and I are the only two with marks on it. Drop on in if you have the time, navigate to where you are (this thing has amazing zoom) and mark away. I look forward to seeing where guests and users are hiding.  See ya. |

And there's me too! A pity that I live in the middle of nowhere according to the map; folk from the UK and US can even zoom in till your practically looking into their bedroom, with the detailed city mapping and such. EDIT: yeah cel, I notice it now too, also too late, but a sec ago it didn't zoom further until the picture became all error. But I took the liberty of putting my icon twice, now corrected, since theirs really no-one else near that place on these boards anyway.  |

Aw.. Now I noticed there's a sattlite option to pin point my exact house.. Crapzor. How do I delete the marker? In the admin section of the map, I can see all of the posts that people have made, and there is an option next to each one to delete them. If anyone wants me to I can remove their mark; so that another more accurate one can be placed. |

Now all we need is pictures of the places where everyone's living.
Why am I the only one that had to give an url to place my icon ?

Japic just pointed out that my house is a dirt field...it was just built in the last year and hence isn't on the satellite map yet.
Tragic...KMan lives in a dirt field.

Well I don't know if I did it right, but I tried. Unfortunately they didn't have any cool icons like a surfing kangaroo or anything to that effect.

I agree, seems broken; mebbe the server dropped. If it's still a problem tomorrow, we'll see what we can do.

Zebra, t'est dans un village ou simplement perdu dans le bois ? Ya chute-aux-outardes de... proche si on peut dire. Mais c'est un tantinet loin. Actually, I didn't even try to pick a place. I just clicked on the map and wound up wherever they sent me. I was trying for the ocean, but hey, you can't win every time. Also, i don't think the link is still broken, as it is working right now, but I did read on the page that they wanted money to keep the page up. something about too much traffic. greedy internet bastards. |

I noticed Wicksy lives near Ravenshead. It made me concerned about his well-being, knowing how things are there. Tell me, Wicksy, how did you manage to avoid the Master's troops? (You won't get what I mean unless you know BOYD storyline) |

Wicksy lives in the middle of Manchester.
He has avoided the teenage street gangs for 6 years now - so the black lord's troops should pose no problem.
;D

I like that there's so many people from England on this site.
It really broadens my vocabulary. I never knew half these words existed, and I still don't know what any of them mean, but it's still neat reading them.
