Been (very idly) working on this for a few weeks, and Jota just prodded me to post it here. It's mostly based upon actual phrenology guides, but with plenty of changes.

THIS IS JUST A SCHEMATIC. There's no real point in prettying things up until the continent-balancing gets fixed, so until then you'll have to put up with the slapdash illustration.

So this is the female brain?

More like the Victorian Quack Brain. I think that around then women were thought to have only three brain areas: 'Obedience', 'Embroidery / Kittens', and 'Unnatural Lusts'.

lol.

I think this is a cool concept. Also, maga's the guy who did the cool little drawings on the Discworld map, so you know it'll probably look pretty nice when he's all done.

Is this really a map or a joke? Because, if its a map, we need change some countries names... Acquisitiveness, argh!!

I think it could definetly be a cool map, it would just require a fair amount of tinkering...

Whimsical, preposterous, and utterly delightful. The perfect map!

**looks back at the other brain thread**

Long ago I suggested a brain map, and this one has some potential. This map could become one of the "Misc" niche maps, similar to Crossword and a few others that are being developed. I am not sure how many of these maps can really coexist, but who knows. Perhaps I'll be back to comment later.

Looks good, but 1 thing
more connections between countries

Maybe you could put in some brain damage as uncrossable borders

I think this map looks awesome, even with the current art. I like the idea of astract continents without them being as complex as the London Underground map or the Space map I've seen around here.

The aspiring area needs a larger bounus as does perceptive.

an awwesome map, different ideas are always welcome.

This isn't a map of the brain persay...

The ancient "science" of phrenology said that you could tell what a person's traits are by mapping out the bumps on their head.

I really like the idea for this map. Taking over groups of cranial deformities reminds me of a series of dreams I once had.

Hope this gets fully made!

I have a feeling that this cartographer is no longer active.

I believe that he's presently in the middle of an extended cross-continent migration which has left him without convenient Internet access for a little while.

make it a map and leave it how it is!

its great

its simple

i like it

dont change a thing

ooo funky! id luv to play this 1.

Maybe you could put in some brain damage as uncrossable borders

that would b really funny.

this is sweet ........

1- bigger font where it could be used
2- more connections
3 - a bit bigger bonuses for continents ...


I really hope this person comes back to do this map its brilliant

Some different names to the countries would be good, too. These names simply suck!

I think "Perceptive" needs to drop to a value of three, as it only has three chokes, but other than that, the values are good - and simple. All continents are valued at the number of chokes they contain. You might break self-perfecting up a bit more. The two effective sides are slightly unbalanced in value, but that may make for better playability. Needs a bit better graphics, and you need a font style that will stand out in all colors, and maybe some name readjustment so there aren't so many names broken into two pieces. But other than that, I like it! It's clean, simple, and easy to play. Looking forward to playing the finished product!

Hey - what does everyone think of a revival of this idea? See here:

Why.. Did you bump this thread just to do that?
