Just a small one but would it be a good idea to change the name of the 'Kings of War Player Locator' child board to Mantic Fanatic Player Locator' or something similar?
Just a suggestion with the announcement of Warpath and what will no doubt be a surge of Mantic Fanatics hitting the forums over time.

Maybe "Kings of War and Warpath" player locator might be better? Or simply "Mantic player locator".

After all, that way you could potentially launch it on other forums too... which might be a good idea, I'd start with mantic's official forums, chamber of kings, warseer and dakka. Those four should be enough to get at least 50 people on the map.

At this point in time getting as many people on it as possible should be the main focus.

It'll definitely boost the map's population. There are interested people everywhere... I'm using a bit.ly link for my battlescribe project on warseer, so I can see what countries the clicks are coming from.

As of today, here is the number of people that have downloaded my KoW battlescribe .zip and their location:

Total Clicks: 28

    United Kingdom ( GB )
    6
    United States ( US )
    5
    Canada ( CA )
    3
    Germany ( DE )
    3
    Australia ( AU )
    3
    Spain ( ES )
    2
    Belgium ( BE )
    1
    Brazil ( BR )
    1
    Netherlands ( NL )
    1
    Denmark ( DK )
    1
    Croatia ( HR )
    1
    Thailand ( TH )
    1
    Malaysia ( MY )

So, there's actually a very big variety of interest in the game from countries all across the globe. Now it's your job to figure out ways of getting them on the map. Smiley

SPAM!

Or maybe not. I could add it to all the new members intro threads but feel a bit awkward doing so... Maybe a banner for the locator map that links to it?

Changed to Mantic Fanatic Player Locator.

Also, thumbscrews are the preferred method of coercion.  You have to remove them to allow typing though.

Nice!

Hmm... can thumbscrews be applied to toes?

Yes, but other appendages produce better results.  Shocked

Also, I'm not concerned about spamming stuff across mutliple forums, so you shouldn't be either. Think of it as whoring!  Tongue

I am somewhat of a ****. The problem is finding out when other boards admins are asleep so you can get the maximum spamming effect before having your posts deleted...
Hey Scarlet... you made those banners in your sig yes?
Would you mind knocking me up one for the player locator map?
Same height but about the width of two of your banners?
