    Because part of the major point of Inside is that it is not mapped or defined beyond a certain point.

    There's the "zones", and there's street names. Beyond that, the streets are nebulous and shifting, and can change locations from day to day even.

    Here's the deal, as far as I'm concerned. No one has the right to tell people they can't map Inside, but they're more than welcome to ignore any maps that do get made. In the interested of compromise, perhaps we could map out a couple of small sections, maybe a few blocks. For example, a couple of streets and alleys around NOIR. However, the area between those mapped patches should remain undefined.

    Does that sound agreeable?

    Er...no, Moff, I don't agree in the least.

    Inside is ever-changing. You can't map it. That's part of the whole point of it. You can't say "oh, we're X blocks from Trog's", you can get to Trog's from wherever you are.

    Anybody can do it for fun, of course. But using maps of Inside? BIG NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO.

    I think Trog's is, of course, impossible to put on a map. But what if, for example, I wanted there to be a liquer store across the street from NOIR that Ilyena frequented, and down the block there's a piano bar? What's wrong with having those three locations, and the miniscule difference between them, remain constant? That little patch's location could change depending on circumstance, but I don't think anyone else has the right to tell me that I can't clearly define the distance between two Inside locations that I came up with, as long as that relationship doesn't imply anything else.

    She isn't really doing very well in terms of rivalling the existing power of curtain pulling in the nexus which I got the impression was your initial concept for her

    Which is good, makes her more unique.. and besides concepts change. xD

    Well, I think that a general map could be nice. No, "[The Woods] take up so many units of measurement and are composed primarily of some horribly unnatural form of tree, due to some crazy magic. There are some pines, as well." or, "[The Zone Of Many Colors] has so many blocks and contains [Random Shop], [Awesome Hairdressers], and [The Lost City Of Atlantis]."

    More of a, "Yeah, so, this place is east of this place, this place is about twice the size of this place, but there'd still be plenty of space in both places to chuck skyscrapers at each other, if you really want to."

    It could be useful for those who like to have a better idea of where they are. Nothing will be stopping those who just want to go straight to Trog's, for instance. Yay for not role-playing that you're walking down every street, if you don't want to. Time skips are sometimes desired, but not all the time.

    I kinda, you know, inked a vague map yesterday. It only had some random gates, the city outline, the zones, and the moat mapped out, though, and it's probably horribly innacurate (Not that you could possibly be accurate).

    I dunno that you can say that if enough people want to. It's freeform, after all. I myself would never do more than I have already done (Which I did for fun, I might add) beyond maybe marking down where specific locations are.

    Ah. Well, that sounds like a larger project, and one that, with the reaction that some of these people have had, probably wouldn't nail down too many locations. I'd go for the general map, with disclaimers saying that any distances can be quite simply ignored, if you don't want to deal with them. The place is called the Nexus. Obviously, every place teleports itself to be nearby, whenever anyone is looking for it. If a character was expecting to encounter it three blocks from his current location, that's where he'll encounter it.

    I think a better way of putting it is no trying to make an official map and enforce it. That would cause way too many problems.

    If someone just wants to screw around and make one for fun it won't cause any harm.

    If anyone wants to try to make an 'official' map, they may. But speaking as the person in charge of reposting and updating the thread, I'm not including any attempted 'official' maps in the OP.

    Also, Darklord, you missed that Inside is next to an ocean, anyway. >.>
