shaddock -> Map is set up! Well sort of... (11/21/2013 1:56:56 PM)

I got the whole map laid out in my garage right now. The only parts not flat, but crawling up the garage door, is a 6" piece of maps D1-D4.
WOW that's a big ole' map! And it looks great, too.
It's only temporary but it'll be there till Saturday.


OK I got the pics to upload!




Jimm -> RE: Map is set up! Well sort of... (11/21/2013 3:10:00 PM)

We need to see a photo!
I daren't even try to set up mine, I fear the local gravitational consequences.

Lets see a pic bro!




shaddock -> RE: Map is set up! Well sort of... (11/21/2013 4:26:27 PM)

Well since the camera is my wife's, I don't dare use it without her permission. It'll have to wait till tomorrow. But it's coming... to a wide screen near you lol!!!

Sorry I've tried a few times to upload the pics but Internet Explorer keeps crashing on me. I'm not sure how to bypass the problem. I did try setting the Matrix Forums as a trusted URL, but to no avail.

shaddock, you might see if the image will upload to another website, such as the first one that comes up if you search for "post image". If that works, you can just post the URL here.




shaddock -> RE: Map is set up! Well sort of... (11/22/2013 3:04:59 AM)

Yeah I suppose I could try Dropbox. Tomorrow we'll give it a go. Internet Explorer keeps going out on me. I'm going to do a scan, defrag, updates, etc. Maybe that will help. The strange thing is my link to Yahoo forums is down too?!?!




Dorb -> RE: Map is set up! Well sort of... (11/22/2013 11:21:19 AM)

Careful and don't forget about the maps and park your car on the world. Those pot holes across the Atlantic and Pacific may do some real damage. [:D]




shaddock -> RE: Map is set up! Well sort of... (11/22/2013 12:36:33 PM)

Does this work?

shaddock -> RE: Map is set up! Well sort of... (11/22/2013 12:41:35 PM)

Hey Dorb, don't worry, I had to pick up the maps last night cause I was going to get some rain.




Erik Rutins -> RE: Map is set up! Well sort of... (11/22/2013 2:15:12 PM)

Great to see! I was waiting for the first photos of a fully laid out map. [8D]




gw15 -> RE: Map is set up! Well sort of... (11/22/2013 2:17:29 PM)

When my package came my wife asked who it was for. She was hoping it was something Christmacy for her. As I took the wrapping off she saw the books and saw it was Matrix World in Flames. She said, "OMG, don't you already have enough WIF stuff?" As I took the maps out I replied, "Look! New wall paper!". I should have had a camera because of the look on her face.
Flowers will be sent today.




shaddock -> RE: Map is set up! Well sort of... (11/22/2013 4:07:18 PM)

Hey Erik, I seem to remember you (or someone else at the office) saying you guys weren't able to set the whole thing up. It was kinda nice to brag to my wife, that I was probably the first person in the world to set up the whole map. For some reason she was not as impressed as I thought she ought to be [:'(]

Well, we are impressed! I do think you have that honour as the first customer.

shaddock -> RE: Map is set up! Well sort of... (11/22/2013 4:31:16 PM)

It was a real pretty sight. But I had pick them up, cause I couldn't take the chance that the rain might, slip under the garage door and ruin them. Otherwise I'd be looking at them right now!




rtoolooze -> RE: Map is set up! Well sort of... (11/22/2013 7:20:29 PM)

Thanks for the pics!!




Ingtar -> RE: Map is set up! Well sort of... (11/22/2013 7:20:48 PM)

Are you prepared to use that fully armed and operational battle map? ie got counters?




shaddock -> RE: Map is set up! Well sort of... (11/22/2013 7:25:37 PM)

LOL! no no no, I don't have the counters. I just love maps, and I'm going to use them as a base for my own wargame project.




rickier65 -> RE: Map is set up! Well sort of... (11/22/2013 10:19:40 PM)

hey, thanks for posting the photos -- pretty impressive sight. and my first thought when i saw where they were laying was that I hoped you didn't get any rain!

then i saw your later post!

thanks
Rick

Numdydar -> RE: Map is set up! Well sort of... (11/22/2013 11:21:56 PM)

I really wanted to get the maps, but when I told my wife that we would have to move the dining room table into another room so i could use them, her response cannot be repeated here [:(]




Omnius -> Need Tables! (11/23/2013 2:27:15 PM)

shaddock,
Thanks for showing us just how large the physical map is, way too large to actually play on. What you really need are enough tables to lay the map out on and then plastic sheets to hold the map in place instead of sticks. Then you could play. Now all you have to do is convince the wife you need to extend the garage a few feet. [:D]
