i was trying to correct wigibob who was darfft in saying make it a dwarf country WHEN IT IS COUNTY.COUNTY NOT COUNTRY WIGIBOB.

they are both land surrounded completely by water but an isle is an older European word for island which is the new word for it.
An isle is not a group of islands that is an archileopago can't spell it sorry.

Then why don't we say "British archipelago"?

Here's something even more weird: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Terminology_of_the_British_Isles

It says: "The British Isles is an archipelago consisting of the two large islands of Great Britain and Ireland, and many smaller surrounding islands"

AAARGH!
Am I the only one who thinks English language should be banned from about everything until the speakers learn how to be consistent?!

Near as I (as a non-native speaker) can tell, "isle" and "island" are pretty much synonyms. However, that only applies when you use them in a sentence; when you use them in a name, it's a different matter. I mean, you wouldn't call that thing to the North of Belgium "Lowlands" (even though "low" is more or less a synonym for "nether")? Nor would you call that thing to the South of Canada "United Provinces of America".
Of course, these examples are specific to English, but the phenomenon exists in every language (well, probably).

Long story short, it's a natural language (as opposed to a formal language, such as mathematics or programming languages). Any attempt to force them to make sense is doomed. Okay granted, some natural languages are more consistent than others: from what I understood, Finnish is very consistent and indeed, English is a horrible mess even for natural language standards ("He is a quick worker" -> "He works quickly" but not "He is a hard worker" -> "He works hardly", seriously...!?), but it's being used by people, who can cope with slight irregularities (programming languages are also used by people of course, but in that case, the needs of the compiler trump the needs of the programmer).

I never said it had 2 be a dawarf country it was just a suggestion which I wouldn't have said if I would have known u would make such a big deal about it I just wanted 2 make sure u didn't miss it out sorry for any inconveniance caused 2 anybody

Wigibob, please use normal English on the forum, and save chat language for the in-game chat. Or refrain from using it anywhere, which is even better. "u" is a letter, and not an English word, and 2 is still a number. There's no need to rush on your forum post, not everything in life is a real-time game!

ok sorry

Hi,
I'm from france, and I have some questions.
Why did you split corsica in four parts? There are only two "haute-corse" and "corse du sud" (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Corsica).
How did you choose the number of army per turn by "region"? Because "pays de la loire", "Nord-pas-de-calais" or "haute-normandie" have higher population than "limousin" or "franche-compté" (http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/R%C3%A9gions_fran%C3%A7aises_class%C3%A9es_par_population , sorry, I didn't find it in english).
To finish, junction between France and Spain is weird on the atlantic coast (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Bay_of_Biscay_from_Terra_%282004-05-17%29.jpg).

I'm looking forward your final map, it looks really awesome. Thank you for your work.

The divisions aren't supposed to be correct, as Loki has already pointed out.

i think the population bonus is about countries and he is working a new foirmula for country bonus.

I'm relatively inactive in warlight last days (weeks) because my lectures has begun..
So, a map will be updated only for weekends.

When you visited Belgrade? Cathedral of Saint Sava exterior is finished but interior is not - decoration works.
I'm not sure what you trying to say about music comparisons in Serbia and Netherlands.
Do not run the ore, I'm not using new demographics and I'm amazed that nobody notice that.

Don't worry, everyone here understands real-world concerns such as lectures and work are more important than WL.

When you visited Belgrade? Cathedral of Saint Sava exterior is finished but interior is not - decoration works.

I visited Belgrade twice, in December of 2007 and October 2009, both times just half a day or so (just passing through, not actual destination). Do you happen to know when the Cathedral of Saint Sava is going to be completely finished (I mean everything, interior, exterior, decorations, ...), so I can visit it in all its glory? A proper visit to Beograd (and Exit Festival; promised a guy I know) is still on my todo list, I just didn't pick a date (uhm, year :( ) yet.

I'm not sure what you trying to say about music comparisons in Serbia and Netherlands.

Those songs are completely different, but in a way very similar as well. I just think it's funny, that's all. :) (Reading that post again, I'm not sure why I wrote such a huge wall of completely-off-topic text...)

That other Dutch song has nothing to do with Serbia, only with you saying (through the bonus value) that the Netherlands has 15 million inhabitants, just like the song does.

Do not run the ore, I'm not using new demographics and I'm amazed that nobody notice that.

"Run the ore"?? Was that a typo (I can't figure out what you meant)? Or did you translate a Serbian expression (which happens not to exist in English, so I have no idea what you meant)?

Just curious, where did you get your demographics? The easiest source I can think of is Wikipedia and that's usually pretty up-to-date.

loki i can wait and am sure everyone can wait a year for your awesome map mgives us time to start experiment on settings for your map

I think it would be better if you renamed the united kingdom bonus the british islands bonus to try and avoid confusion with some of the islands and since scotland might be gaining independance soon it would be easier

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:British_Isles_Euler_diagram_15.svg

I know you are all probibly very annoyed the the british isles are so complicated I am too and I live in england

if you do get confused just say so and I will try to help

Well, the diagram helped, but I think that if Scotland ever gains independence, the map should be adjusted to that. I also think the Africa map should have been adjusted to fit South Sudan's independence, but that's up to Sue.

moros in the map there is a south sudan bonus but not the same accurate border as the real one
secondly i think should be left like it is

scotland will always be part of the british islands wether is remains part of the uk or not is the problem,the uk is more political than anything else I would say

wigibob i understand but when wales split loki will modify it this is a map of countries,1st level and second level administrative
