What typo? Don't your map threads have a frist page?

other than the things i posted above, thats an awesome handbook.

I have one question, though.
Are the requirements for each stamp really strict, or can they be more lenient?
Like the "two quality updates" rule for the ideas stamp. If i can get it with just one, would that be ok? or would it force me to make a second one?

4. All sound advise must be followed un

Should read "advice"...

Otherwise looks good to me...

The idea behind this rule is not to achieve a perfect image - which is certainly not an expectation while a map is in Ideas - but that the mapmaker must demonstrate the ability and willingness to act on advice and edit their map. Anybody who thinks they got everything right with the first or second image they post is in for a rude awakening when the Foundry regulars start tearing into the map!

i have a question....

We decided that the information page will be done as part of the requirement to laeve ideas. This is because have of the information need for the info is needed anyway to leave the sub forum.

Lets not play the smart arse role ok? Thats for yeti_c

Here's a non-grammar/spelling related suggestion.


What I'm trying to do with my maps now (when I actually receive feedback that is....) is to include the same information in the first post and every update post.

So, whether you're starting from the beginning or just looking at whatever the latest happenings are, you know everything needed to know about the map.

This can include the pertinent territory and continent information etc..., current changes, to do lists or whatever else




Oh one other thing. You put, "Information Requirements on the first page of a maps thread." Shouldn't that be, "first post" ?
