its just a joke

If you go into the ASB forum, there is an 'ASB map' thread. There is also a 'Frivolous ASB Ideas' thread. That joke of a map (and I'll admit that I laughed out loud when I saw it, especially Meg's land :D) would be right at home in either of those threads.
 
Really? My map gets one comment, and you guys take up a page commenting on *that*? One person saying "This map is bad and the joke isn't very funny." was all that was needed.
Thanks! :D

If you want comments, just make a confederate victory-wank map with an outdated basemap and straight borders 7 pixels thick.
 
A Steam Punk Map of the World Circa 1914 so many things, of course, are ASB but it's going for the "AWESOME" factor rather then the "realism" factor:

Oh yeah and the Red is the Paris Commune, and the the purple in northern Spain is Communist Spain.

Actually it isn't. We call it trolling here. Don't do it again.

If you decide to be funny again put it into the general Shard World's Forum where it can die a much deserved death by disinterest or in the Frivolous Thread, where it can join other jokes that aren't funny.

Reposting from MotF - I hope you all like it. :)

From an artistic standpoint that is a bad use of complementary colors, especially since they aren't even the same tone. As for the map sans that point and your scenario I love it not just because of my love of Amerindian Alternative History, but also the idea of keeping megafauna around. Brilliant, just brilliant.

I have an AH hard on right now.

If you have an AH hard-on, you need to wank something.

My artistic process is a little chaotic, so I didn't really consider complementary colours and tone when making it - I just wanted the road colour to stand out against the different shades of green. I suppose I should've made the red a bit brighter, but there seemed to be some issue when turning an InkScape drawing into a PNG where the colour's shade would change slightly, but noticeably. I think it came out looking pretty good, despite that.

I have an AH hard on right now.

I am humbled to be the origin of your allohistorical erection, sir. :)

The Lands of the Broken empire

Dont know what I was doing, but over a series of Maps that involved no Background information I went from
scaled.php


To
scaled.php

Note the Creation of borders over some states, Im taking this to mean, that some empire collapsed and following that collapse there was an era of disorganization until some states were forced to negotiate.

The Morean Despotate, or Lydian Thalassocracy expanded furiously first defeating the Antioch King in Cyprus, before defeating the King of Epirus forcing the Cessation of Western Cyprus from the former, and Securing a portion the Chalkidike, and the Exarchate of Bali in Sicily from the Later

The Imperial Remnant In Byzantion Survived a vicious war between the Tyrnovo Empire, and the Calkira Dynasty, and through incredible subterfuge destoryed the later, and through Luck was able to defeat the Former, who ended up facing massive onslaught from the Balkan Devil Theo of Serbia, and the Dovian King Antrachos

Its a start at least....

TL please! :)

I want to know more about this socialist party and how it's getting so many votes.
Long story short: economic crisis gets worse. And worse. And worse. Extreme austerity by the Tea Party crowd brings back radical anti-capitalism as a credible political force. Republican party dissolves; UWS party emerges for the radical left. Democrats become the centrist/compromise/"can't we all get along" party.

I was thinking of doing a FBWI based on these election results.

Sounds like some fantasy I'd come up with when daydreaming. FBWI would be cool but a TL would be awesomer. I'd definitely either run for office or be a campaign staffer for UWS party ITTL.
