The continents themselves look lovely, though :)

hyperlinked maps... I mean imagine this: you have a map of a city in your conworld, and then you click on the square, and BOOM! a wiki page with a drawing springs, reading [i]"whatever whatever square: here is where the revolution of whatever whatever happened in year whatever before whatever. By now it has been turned into a peregrination site where whatever go and pray to the whatever god for health and good fortune"[/i]
[h5]also, I miss having buttons I can press to format text...[/h...

I know, why do you think I don't ;)

Alternatively, you could dynamically load posts as you scroll up or down with some jQuery magic, like Twitter does. However, at least on my 6 years-old computer, this is also what makes Twitter slow as a snail.

I tried to give it an eshbend but my photoshop skillz failed me. I also gave it frozen poles, because ice is nice and someone might want to give the world some aleutians. And fuck the Y thing. gargantuan plains for the win! [maybe there ought to be some lakes or something there, but I imagine that since its smack dab in the middle of the equator, the huge continent would probably have some jungles. and savannas.... I should revisit the Church of Climatology.

an excellent solution, keeping the page system alive but just having paged and pageless ways to see a thread.
10/10 would suggest a feature again

Derivation ideas (2014-02-06 23:39:45) :
The derived forms created from verbs look distinctly different from the rest of the nouns, in that the verb stem plus the inflection has a particular look to it that looks different.

[quote Torco]yauch.. that Y thing looks hideous! u___u[/quote]
The mountain on the main continent? Eh, maybe lower it a bit and bend the top prongs of the Y in different ways, it'll be fine. Maybe curve the left spine upwards, and rotate the right's base about 45° east, then meander it a bit. #backseatcartography
[quote Hurq]That looks much better when projected onto a sphere. My only remaining gripe is this island:

Could it be rotated just a little so it's not at a perfect right angle to the rest of the archipelago?

They don't look squarish to me. They're not the most easily geologically-justifiable, but I'm a huge map/geology geek and it's really not too bad. 10/10 would approve again

I blame Rhetorica for this wiki travesty and will talk to her about it. EDIT: Maybe I am the one to blame? EDIT: Problem solved, you all have access and can edit away.
Torco, the continents look squarish, if we're going to fiddle with nature a bit surely we can improve it a bit more?
Any objections to the map?

you know what sucks? when you get into a thread and someone just made the first post of a thread.
You know what would be cool ? that whenever the browser renders the page, it showed the last, I don't know, 17 posts or something. I mean the whole numbered pages thing is an atavism from the paper days, right?

Well, if it won't allow me to edit the wiki then there's hardly reason to, is there?
Plus, I rather enjoy the board charminly insisting I've only made one post, even with abundant evidence to the contrary. On compensation for this most obscene and shameful eccentricity I present this thread with a map!
