Okay, make a game and I'll throw the match, lol. You need to prove you lost though.

EDIT: Aww crap, I'm going to get us in trouble again.

Just had to post to congratulate you on a fantastic map. Really like the look and the playability (especially now the bonuses are right).

It's unclear what is meant by an adjacent lake. Take game 467801 as an example. Dlakavi is all set to win the game and deploys on Lake Superior to attack through Lake Michigan, yet is unable to do so. The two lakes are clearly adjacent to one another yet they are unconnected.
Is this a bug or are the two lakes not considered 'adjacent'?

Aside from this, I really like the map. :)

i don't see them as adjacent. there's no connection between them :shock:

now I see what you mean. But if you're unfamiliar with north america it's not clear from the map that the other lakes are connected to one another.

Sorry guys if this has been answered before, but why did you decide on the Union Jack Flag on Canada? Some players where wondering the reasoning for it.

It's only on Ontario, and it is their state(province?) flag:

I am not a native english speaker but i thought adjacent meant "when 2 things are next to each other"

The proper word fot the map should be "connected"

They are adjacent. They touch.
EDIT: 2007-10-20
They are adjacent? They touch? Sarcasm


Synonyms abutting, adjoining, bordering, contiguous, flanking, fringing, joining, juxtaposed, skirting, touching, verging.

I still don't see why anyone would think lake michigan could attack lake superior. There is a piece of land in between them.

The wording was discussed in the forum before the map was quenched. Sorry that there was a problem I have not heard of any other players having issues with this.

I wrote that OVER 5 MONTHS AGO. I was trying to be sarcastic and should have put "?" after each sentence.

Plus read the rest of the post. I clearly say there is a piece of land in between.

Oh and Stop bumping dead threads. :evil:
