Hit the link and choose Additions - "Add Marker - Simple", in 'Entry Name' type your username (unless you want to remain anonymous) and of course, make sure you put in your location. Then hit 'Submit'.
Eventually we'll get a pretty nice demographic, and it'll be interesting to see where the people of the GMC are~

Please don't include very specific whereabouts such as your direct address, for your own privacy. :3

 

[RekNepZ]

Sounds cool. Can't wait to see.

Kentucky here! If you need to be more specific, Lexington is probably close enough.

 

[Kepons]

Like most of the members of the GMC, I come from planet Earth.

Care to be a smidge more specific?

Says the guy who lists his location as "my computer"

 

[Roa]

I live in ohio, US

 

[Nocturne]

I'm sure we had this on the old GMC, but it was simply a URL for a map where people could pin where they're from on it and leave a message. If you were to do THAT then you'd get a better response than asking people to give that information here...

 

[Latté]

I live in the southeastern United States.
Even though I know nobody here is going to somehow figure out my exact address and send me junk mail or something, I'd still rather not specify the state.

Also, Nocturne has a good point.

 

[GVmG]

Yeah we have one of those pinpoint maps in a discord server I'm in, lemme see if I can find the link to the site that allows them.

EDIT: zeemaps.

 

[Guest User]

I had no idea of such a thing =o
Let me see if I can set that up.

 

[Guest User]

Here we are.
Hit the link and choose Additions - "Add Marker - Simple", in 'Entry Name' type your username (unless you want to remain anonymous) and of course, make sure you put in your location. Then hit 'Submit'.

RekNepZ, Roa and Latté's markers are in already.

 

[Nocturne]

I've added my marker too... check in Spain.

 

[Guest User]

Spain sounds interesting. =P

Just thought, is this topic more applicable to Off Topic or Community Chat? Should it be moved to the latter?

 

[Nocturne]

We should leave it here I think, as this is where we have all the other introduction stuff... I will pin it however!

 

[hippyman]

Just letting you know that it looks like anybody can just go in and change the markers to whatever they want.

 

[roytheshort]

The moon isn't on here.

Yes, that is the unfortunate way of things at this point. Tomorrow on my PC I'll see if there's any way to change this.

The moon isn't on here.

They probably weren't making allowances for clowns.

 

[Blackened]

Hmm...

 

[Misu]

Im from Auschwitz avenue, Cambodia town, North Korea

 

[Guest User]

You can see Bikkie's exact location! To bad this wasn't a hybrid street level map so you could see just how ghetto my town really is! Bring on the stalkers!

Seems wise.

Can someone confirm that they are not able to delete markers (EDIT: or edit map settings)? I think you should no longer be able to now.

To try to edit settings: Map Menu > Settings
To try to delete a marker: Click on a marker > lower rightmost trashcan icon

Don't worry if you delete a marker by mistake, just lemme know which it was.

 

[Kepons]

I like how so far Kousenai is the only one on the southern hemisphere.

 

[Coded Games]

Added mine.

Looks good now. It doesn't give us Admin access anymore. It's just member access now.

 

[RekNepZ]

I feel like such a creep looking at this

 

[MikeDark_x]

Interesting, so most of the people here comes from planet earth...

 

[GhostlyFeline]

Added mine. Not a lot of people in the northeast US so far.

Map update: Everything is working as it should. Normal members can add markers and not change or remove them without the link it gives you when you add it. (If you lose your marker link, just message me, and I'll change or remove it for you).

Currently, me and Noc have admin permissions. Some of you people who pinpointed yourself earlier on might as well; because you joined while the default new IP rank was Admin; I set the new default rank to Member by specifying an admin key:

The map system is IP-based as far as I can tell; your role is assigned to your IP address. By default, new IP addresses will have the 'Member' rank, which can add new markers but not change or delete any markers. [You can change or delete your own markers with the link it gives you when you add it as mentioned above.]
There's a certain 'admin key' that you can enter by clicking on Map > Settings which I have that will give whatever IP you're on Admin rank if entered.

Hope that all makes sense? That's what I can make of it so far.

 

[Guest User]

Fight me irl

Lol! You guys are so close.

 

[johnwo]

First from Norway.
Now I'll just wait to get killed in my sleep by Scirra forum members...

 

[Forester]

Probably Latvia. Cant be sure, but kepon is a latvian word meaning Peaked Cap.

 

[Destroy]

The nearest GMCer to me is 700km away ;-;

 

[RekNepZ]

The nearest GMCer to me is 700km away ;-;

At least you're not Ninety

 

[roytheshort]

The nearest GMCer to me is one flight away. Woo. I can do nothing with this!

 

[GVmG]

I'll just stay here alone in the middle of the sea.

 

[Law]

According to this, Roy lives in Jersey? No way is that true, like 8 people live on Jersey and I'm pretty confident they don't have internet. Probably haven't even discovered electricity yet the poor isolated buggers.

 

[hippyman]

I added my summer home in case any of you want to visit.

 

[Tselmek]

I seem to be the first from France. Come on guys, don't tell I'm the only baguette eater around.

 

[2Create]

I seem to be the closest of the people who added themselves on the map now, at about 590km. I'm pretty sure we have some German forumers, though.
The closest forumer to me right now is Cantavanda, but that might well change.

Well, it is Roy. Who knows?
EDIT: Oookaaayyy, don't think you'll be getting visitors, Hippyman.

 

[GVmG]

Just tried going to slojanko's place with Google Maps.

Looks like I need 4h20m of plane. Dank.

 

[Guest User]

I could probably visit Forester with like, 45 minutes of plane?
EDIT: It's only 12 hours of drive at that.

 

[Law]

I can get the train to Yok.

 

[Lukasmah]

Okay, who added Kim Jong Un?

@Overloaded or @Overloaded?

 

[Guest User]

Should I remove spam markers completely or leave them as long as they don't get out of hand?

 

[roytheshort]

I just noticed Yokcos is a flight away and Lawsome is a flight and a train away. You two should be afraid.

Hey if you're ever in the UK and want to get a pint I'd totally be up for that.

If you're going to dress as a clown and murder me in my sleep I might be less enthusiastic.

I think @Overloaded did it

Well, you said "might", so that means "yes".

Guess I'm the first Floridian to place a pin
