Try finishing the map before posting it

No one likes a half done map.

as long as great britain is called "england" and scotland is therefore wiped off the face of the earth, i shall not support this map.

And in the legends, putting england next to the union jack is an insult . . .

Is this copied from Landgrab (or another site)? I know the last one was so I don't think it's a bad question to ask. Don't take any personal offense.

by **gimil** on Sat Feb 09, 2008 5:30 pm

The union jack is the flag of te united kingdom, teh united kingdom being scotland, england, northern ireland and wales. The flag represents the union of these 4 countries.

He is asking if you took the map from Landgrab, because the last people who tried to make this map did.

this is theirs i think:

by **edbeard** on Sat Feb 09, 2008 5:45 pm

well apparently you made a version of this map a while ago. And, soon after, Gnome came out with his version

here

So, you stopped yours since his was better at the time. But, it was found out that his was pretty much just a copy of a version from Lux Deluxe.

And, at the moment, yours looks quite a bit like his version. So, maybe you can help us out and show us where you got the layout of the map.

Obviously since they all deal with the same event, they'll be similar but still it doesn't hurt to show us your sources etc..
