1. Is the first person on a city (for example, Christopher on Seattle) the only person to show up on the map if another person uses the same coordinates?

2. For now yes, however both of them get listed on the roguepeople listings.

4. FWIW, http://www.geocoder.ca will apparently give you long/lat for US & Canada.

5. Where’s Glen Wichman? Is it illegal to add others if you know where they live? (He lives in Tuscon or Scotsdale, AZ, if I’m not mistaken.

6. Yeah … the east coast of the US might still need a bit of work. Boston (which is a port city) is showing up about 400-500 miles inland? At Boston’s latitude North America is about 2700 miles across (roughly) and is 33 characters on the map. However, measuring from approximately the Georgia/SC border west to the San Diego area is roughly 2100 miles and 20 characters on the map. I’m willing to bet that the problems stem from the projection used for the map, but is there any way to improve the placement of points, allowing for the imperfections of the projection?

7. Glen Wichman is capmango, he is already on the map.

   When the roguemap was initially made, I didn’t think I needed that much accuracy, as the roguedevs were intented to be put manually (come to think about it, it was not meant to put people on it, that probably came later). I feel the need of remaking.

   As long as everybody is registered with the right coordinates, it can be fixed 🙂

   Thanks
