Is there still just the 2 maps?
Yes, as of right now. Does anyone else have an entry in progress? I expect to post the new round in about 34 hours.

I have made such a good map but waterpaint isn't detected by the scanner ;-; sorry, no Hawai'i protectedd by a magical storm until 1983 ;-;
You've got a couple of weeks to figure something out - maybe there's another way to get an image file of it?
Not really, and it honestly isn't very creative beyond the form, so making it with Gimp would be of no interest ... and I wouldn't want to ruin the physical form to get a good scan ...
An idea could be to put it on a decent setting and have a "photo of an exhibition from an ATL" kind of thing. It would certainly be very creative. We can always use more diversity on these things
Does it have to be a country? Can it be a first-level subdivision?
Does the second map need to be of the entire world? Could we have a map of a particular neighbouring region or even continents?
Thoughts on these?I have a couple of ideas for some mofts:
Double-Sided Coin: Show a war/cold war map between 2 nations with almost identical ideologies (like between soviet and american stratocracies)
Death of a Bachelor: A map of a nation that has finally (re) united with another nation
It's Always Sunny: A map where you have to show a nation, or a part of the nation, on the Equator, or close by
In the Shadows: A map of a nation that has always been less important than it's neighbor, until that neighbor collapses. you have to show the aftermath of them becoming a major nation.
