Notes:
1) Space and beyond are "Quench dates"
2) Classic -> Ancient Greece are "First play dates"
3) Times are from my local time (which is GMT+1 at the moment)
4) All Maps are still Live - except Das Schloss
5) So far there have been 6 revamps
6) Classic revamp time is from ReQuench (Probably with "white saucers") - not the up/down/shake it all about date.
7) Keyogi Quenched 1 map (Indochina Revamp)
8) Andy has written the word "barring" in 90 posts in FF - 1 of these instances is *not* a quench notice.

How about some colour to break it up a little and make it easier to read?

The Middle East link leads to the crossword thread (I would look for the Middle East thread but I don't have time)

Any thread can be stickied :mrgreen:

I agree with what, I think, you are saying in that this should be stickied here (and our ramblings should be moved out) but it doesn't belong in GD. It's Foundry History, so it belongs here.

Is it worth adding the start date for each map (ie the date of the first post in the map thread)? This would give an indication of the length of time each map was in development...
