1. Which basic design do we use?
Dom's map. From our conversations the last couple of months, I feel like the biggest abjection to this was that Sanctaria wasn?t around during that time and felt strongly about his nation's placement on the other map. Sanc has done a lot for the region, so he's one of the nations that I would like to see represented on the map, despite him ceasing to exist, so I suggest we incorporate his lands on Dom's version (maybe not exactly, but close enough).
2. Which format do we use for the map's master copies?
Pixel, I guess. That is the easiest and wont make us as dependent on people with specific skills.
3. Where do we set the map in terms of latitude, and how wide would it extend in terms of longitude?
I don't have any specific preferences, I'm ok with the current makeup.
4. For how long are nations kept on the map after they OOC either cease to exist or move into other regions?
I'm in favour of having a graded system, where some nations (the olden ones) are more important than others. Mikitivity disappeared a long time ago, but I still want them to be on the map, for example. Of course, we need to be pragmatic about it, so maybe "old" nations could still be allowed to be on the map, but in a reduced capacity or something along those lines. As for nations coming, requesting a spot and then disappearing I think we could have a limit on a month or so.
5. Should there be a qualifying period of residence, or perhaps level of activity, required before a nation can claim a place on the map?
Citizenship should be enough, I think.
The biggest obstacle is that we do not have a cartographer that can take charge over editing our map and process requests, etc. I'd like to be that person, but I do not have the time for it.
