LOL!!!
When you go to the world map, it looks like there are some folks that have their own private islands!!!

Either they hit the Big Lottory or can't enter their coordinates correctly =-)

PS - Glad to see I'm the only one in the SE US - wouldn't want the place to get crowded - lol

heh yeah. there's quite a few people that have their latitude north instead of south.

Looks like a couple of islands around NZ and Tassy that I've never known of as well, maybe they're out in a dingy or something, must be on Sat-net.

Hmmm there are three other with in a 200kms of me! and I thought I was the only north coaster here.

Aha One of those would be Oldboy, he's from Launceston, I'd better tell him (in a fake pommy accent) "I say Oldboy, your dot's in the wrong place"...Then again he might just want to stand out from the crowd...

There's a few that may have "defected" as well.

My little dot is so lonely on the west coast of the states.

:sniff: :sniff:

I need to get a few friends down here.

davidpretorius · #9 19-09-2005, 03:42 AM

we are your friends!!!

square_peg114GT · #10 19-09-2005, 03:46 AM

Yes, you are! Didn't mean to imply otherwise. I should be more concerned about getting my eyeballs down there to observe some southern hemisphere skies.

davidpretorius · #11 19-09-2005, 07:41 AM

yup and there is no worries about one of us letting use a scope!!

ving (David) · #12 19-09-2005, 09:43 AM

need to knock of a few sydney people, i cant see myself any more

iceman (Mike) · #13 19-09-2005, 09:53 AM

When the new IceMap is finished, you'll be able to see more more more!

But that's still 465 days away, according to Terry's timer

Maybe we should use Google Map

For Example:
Sydney

mojo (Terry) · #15 28-09-2005, 04:09 PM

mmm. I've looked at using google. but putting hundreds of members locations into their API would make for a hefty page download.

it could still be used. say as a link from the current zoomed-in view. but using it exclusively would make browsing through the maps painfully slow.

only 452 days to go

Mojo, I understand to some degree what you mean.. But i was thinking more along the lines of adding such links to peoples signatures.

ving (David) · #17 28-09-2005, 04:37 PM

why is it 452 days to go?

The west coast of Oz is not exactly swarming with red dots either.
