Until their group is setup, there is nothing wrong from their members posting here, although I'd be worried about a great idea being stolen.

LedZ, unless you are applying to join this group, refrain from posting here.

who is the admin that makes the groups

jp is in the loop, and runs with that crowd.
...I'm sure that we will be informed soon.

You are about to enter a group that will take weeks to make a map, I'm sure you can wait a few more days for the group to be created.

Pork if your working on my calender map i'd like to help with gameplay

and how about who's initial idea it was gets the badge? Then (if were succesful) when someone has missed out on a badge (and contributed to the map) and everyone else has one they get it that time? sound fair?

I wouldn't sweat that. Great map ideas are not exactly an endangered species, and in fact exponentially outnumber the sorts of talented cartographers that could properly give them life.

I've made my feelings known and even if i do leave i do not harbor any ill will against the Map Factory. And i'd hope you guys grabbed someone else to replace me if i left

I was not asking that you be "chucked out". I just wanted in.

We weren't "chucking him out", he asked to be left out if we were doing that particular map. :roll:

Not to worry y'all,
I think that just about everyone that wants in, WILL be included.
I just don't want any butt-heads, like we see in the foundry. By that I mean, We will actually work as a team to produce maps, NOT hinder them with needless hoop jumping and ring kissing. :lol:

Ring kissing?

Idea 3: Hogwarts Castle - BIG birds-eye-view of Hogwarts and it's Grounds. Rooms are territories. - Hagrids Hut, Main Hall, Forbidddon forest, Chamber of Secrets, Quiditch Pitch... the possibilities are endless.

There is a discworld map so I'm sure this is possible.

Yes indeedy, The calendar idea is in fact one of the ideas that I have already taken to photoshop. Just trying to work out how it might be layed out. I want to hit the ground running when we get our room. Calendar, will be among our first projects, It has much promise, and I predict that it will be a hit.

i had this idea a while ago surprised i forgot about it

i was thinking more along the lines of a mauraders map style of it and was wondering who owned rights to mauraders map shown in film warner bros or J.K.Rowling it would be a lot easier to get righs of it off of J.k though but still next to impossible

hope this goes through i'm a big harry potter fan

I think The Map Machine is an excellent place to discuss maps...

I do not see what the big fuss is all about. We are only discussing the topic of this tread. If it is in the wrong place, please move it as you see fit. The needless scolding about location is not productive. It is only evidence to the lack of the managements priorities, and goes to what they think is important. I could NOT care less "where" this thread is located, as long as we can continue our discussion.
C'mon guys. :?:

i can't think of any more ideas they just come to me

As an outside observer, I'm quite interested in seeing what you guys eventually do with the Calendar idea. I think that has tremendous potential.
