So there's now no way of knowing whether nations near the southern edge of the southern continent are in the tropics, the southern temperate belt, the sub-antarctic, or even the antarctic itself ?!
I've already got two requests queued from players with nations on that landmass who want advice on their nations' likely ecosystems, one of whom says that you actually referred them to me for this, and it's impossible to answer those questions properly without at least some idea of the correct situation.

Also, you include a scale on at least one version of the map, but unless you're going to godmode that the region's world is now flat -- or, at the least, one face of a cube -- having a scale provided for a map covering such a wide area only works if latitudes are given and that scale is then defined as correct for a specific latitude. Without that information, the scale is useless and people will still NOT be able to determine accurately how large their nations are or how far apart particular places are.

Even if all you meant was that you're not going to provide a full grid showing coordinates, can you at least tell us what latitudes the map's northern & southern edges are supposed to be at?
