Mappist Cabal
An informal term to describe the denizens of the Map Thread and, nowadays, the various map threads covering the Maps and Graphics forum (formerly the inaccurately named Books, Movies, Games and Websites forum and then the Books and Media forum). Mappists consist of people who regularly post maps and comment on other people's maps.
Note that the mainstream Mappists do not always overlap with the FH Mappists (see: Committee of Shadow).
Traditional list of long-established Mappists
Scarecrow and Shadow Knight are noted for inventing the BAM.
Other Mappists
- Alex Richards (general mappist and map colour scheme scholar)
- oshron (TACOS project leader)
