So, I will preface this by saying it's kind of messy and imperfect. Part of that is my fault, part of that is Dave/Joe/whoever made the avatars' fault, and part of it is the curvature of the Earth's fault. Anyway, I decided to make a map of the USA based on Atlas avatars - I picked the most common/notorious/important avatar (in my opinion) and made a map of them. I don't think this has been done before, and it's kind of cool. If anyone has any questions about which avatars I chose and why or anything, really, that's what this thread is for. Enjoy! Smiley

And yes, DC is in there if you look closely.

Disgraceful that Georgia isn't red.

I wonder what a partisan tilt map of Atlas would look like (not a mock election that gets brigaded to throw every electoral vote to one candidate, but a legit map based on people who actually are on the forum a decent amount).

I took John Dibble and Leinad over BaconKing and Griff. It was a judgment call.

It's not based on who the better posters are. That would make a different map. Dibble has the most posts of any Georgian poster, so as I went through I picked L-GA first, and by the time I realized, it was too late to do anything.

Quality nothing, the record of service held by either is incomparable.

No offence to John Dibble, Leinad, or LLR, but GA really should be red. Tongue

Pretty neat. I know we have some icons from other nations, I wonder what that would look like.

I would have made Illinois blue for the large group of super moderate R-IL posters that all blend together a bit (but that are all good posters).

Wait, am I the most prolific/active/important poster from Arizona? Because I think I'm the only really active D-AZ avatar.

Changing your state to New York probably didn't help.

The Arizonan? I did realize CARLHAYDEN probably has more posts than y'all, but he hasn't posted in years...

Just watch Italian soccer matches and post every time there's an interesting play.  You'll catch up with Phil in no time.
