Sometimes it doesn't show....it could happen with hosting sites.
I've added a second small link under the map into the first post just in case it doesn't show again. ;)

This was a nice looking map that I was looking forward to playing until it died in the water. Good luck to all who try getting this up and going again.

Woohoo! I thought I would never get to play CC on a map of my own backyard after the first attempt was a bust, but looks like there is hope yet! Sadly I am not a graphic artist and can't make a submission, but good luck to everyone who submits. I would like to point out to any potenial cartographers out there that the blob representing Cape Breton is quite misshapen, both on the rough mock-up above and the Golfe map that was sent to the recycle bin so many months ago. Hopefully the new map makers can address this in their entries.

My thoughts too. It looks like a map that I'd put into my rotation.

Hmm... I wonder if it's because Cape Breton is so phallic in shape... CC is a family friendly site after all ;)

Truth be told, I'd play the sample map if you cleaned up the borders and connecting dots.

Yeah, but its pretty plain. Wait until you see the entries before you make a such a judgment ;) I got a feeling that they're going to be some good ones.

Is there an image available without the names of the places listed? Just for the sake of getting the borders right.

Heh, I was only poking gentle fun at the map's purgatorial status in the foundry. There is something to be said about a simple, clean, crisp map, but yes, I'm looking forward to the entries.

I noticed a couple of spelling mistakes, can I use the correct spelling for those couple of territories?

What spelling mistakes? Keep in mind that the terts used the French spelling.
