There are other maps in here with 10 pages of critisism and they are not even advanced drafts. Just because he is an experieced map maker and a cartographer doesn't mean he can get special treatment.
Don't get me wrong though, I love the map!
Edit: I forgot that this was a competition entry and received some vetting there. That makes me less annoied but I still think it should have been in here a little longer.

gho wrote:Why dont you make the three challenges start neutral and make it a plus 3 to hold them all, to make it worth trying to get at the beginning instead of going for a continent which people usually do. I think it might add a bit of dimension to the play.
