I, for one, wouldn't mind being included in the list of members on a tile.
I could see how some people would want their own presence. Given that, I
like both Frank's and Lar's ideas.
Color codes for tiles and 1x1 rounds would be more effective, especially in
high population areas. The areas around larger metropolis' would run out of
room, so individuality would have to be ruled out in favor of 1 plate or
tile representing multiple people.. We wouldn't have that problem in
Arkansas at this point. We have enough room to put a 2x2 tile and all our
1x1 rounds (most likely even close to the right "towns" we live in).
"I got five on it", for the shipping, but I'd much rather the builder or
someone close to the builder be responsible for getting it to BW and back
home safely.
