I will say this... if #2 wins, I hope that whomever did #6 tries to apply the same sort of style/scheme to a different geographic region in the world. It's a very attractive map and I hope to see it something like it on the site soon.


Agreed, this is why I voted for #6 as well. Originality.

Wow this seems to be a reasonably close competition. Should the final result remain close I may have to run second round poll between our two front runners!
What do you know about map making, bitch?

Hey, grifftron, when did you and Tisha start sharing cupcakes? (Referencing the avatars, so that this seems less stupid in the future, should they change.)

i'm pretty sure this makes certain people very happy.

anyway, my general attitude towards all this is:

As per DiM's request I have removed him from the final poll. Which means I can declare entry 6 by [player]ndrs[/player].

I shall PM him with the details of how to get his map running in the foundry.


Well done to [player]ndrs[/player]. =D>
