Everyone sign the Straight Dope map!

oh no… not again, will the mods be so kind to change my username to Underhill for a while?..

So should we start a fierce battle to stay on the map? Once we’ve been bumped, we race back and re-add ourselves?

Done and done.

Well, I signed and pinned myself into Georgia, next to Labdad, but I was really torn as to whethere I should place myself in Germany, since that is where I am from. In the end , I just mentioned that fact in the comments.

Man, wouldn’t be cool if we could get all 39, 313 of us on a map and then have the pins blink? I know, I know: no monitor could handle it. :wink:

Q

I think if you pay their premium price you can get up to 200 pins or something. I don’t remember. I had considered it at one point but decided against it.

First one in Idaho.

If you pay something like $9 a month, you can get up to 1,000 pins. Not really worth it, I think.

Nah, it’s not karomon, but thanks for the invite. It was fun. Can we still list as many comments as we want without a premium, or does that carry a limit as well? I was just thinking that even if we couldn’t place our pins, we could still scroll through the list and find out where everyone’s at.

Thanks

Q

I’m in!! Cool Idea

All the Ireland dopers got bumped. I’ve reclaimed Ireland.

Too bad it only allows for so few.

Oh well! Neat idea!

I’m in. Dunno for how long though.

I tried to get my pin pushed into L. A. County, but the position that the map gave it appears more near Fresno, where an aunt of mine lives. I live in Gardena, in L. A. County.

I’m in Fort Worth but my pin is in the Panhandle over 300 miles away. Oh, well, at least it is still in Texas.

This is really a neat idea Karamon.

Cool, I put a pin in Oregon for me and Joel.

Hopefully my flag is placed on or near Redding, CT. It was blurry zoomed so I hope I didn’t hit Manhattan.

Great concept. :slight_smile:

I’m a powder blue pin, near Madison.

Hey, welcome to Wisconsin, Hardy Grrl!!! Glad to have ya’! Your Brett Favre jersey is on it’s way!!! (just kidding)

I’m there! Cool!

I must be an idiot, but I still can’t figure out how to place my pin, and get myself on the map.

I put myself by Houston. I hope I’m on the right side of the Brazos and San Jacinto rivers.
