(...) My question is, why must Castle World have any set map? If I want to have a lake, a mountain, and a forest in my realm, am I going to be prevented from doing so because my particular grid squares don't contain those environments? It seems to (...)

(...) Dear, dear, no, no way! *You* decide what goes in your part of the "map". Look, I don't know it all, nor do I presure to. The map issues are not entirely resolved. What I know comes from little tidbits of info Craigo has told me. And I know (...) (24 years ago, 30-Sep-00, to lugnet.castle.org.cw)

(...) See, that's what I thought. In fact, I kind of took that for granted until I heard some of the talk about the map, which made me wonder. (I'm coming to this kind of late.) Anyway, the folks running Castle World have made it pretty clear that (...) (24 years ago, 30-Sep-00, to lugnet.castle.org.cw)

(...) CW is a wonderful idea but the map seems to raise an awful lot of issues. It seems to me that a "Magic: the Gathering" approach would be easier to implement and cause less confusion. The Magic card game is built around many worlds (planes) (...) (24 years ago, 30-Sep-00, to lugnet.castle.org.cw)

(...) While "separate worlds" reduces the friction, it also reduces the interraction. There is a lot of benefit to having strong interrations between peoples creations. The important thing is to allow each participant to work with the other (...) (24 years ago, 2-Oct-00, to lugnet.castle.org.cw)

(...) Being a long-time Magic afficionado, this is the most appealing aspect of realm placement to me. It's not very confusing, unless you want it to be, nor is it too terribly difficult to understand. This also allows (to address a subsequent point (...)

(...) Ah! Yes! This is exactly what I think Castle World should do, too! (Although I'm hardly an isolationist; I sure hope that's not the impression I gave. I want to interact with other balladeers as much as anybody!) It seems to me that this way, (...) (24 years ago, 3-Oct-00, to lugnet.castle.org.cw)

<big big snip> Wow! That's what I get for sitting in the lurch for a while and lurking, huh? ;-) I gotta say some great ideas about Castle World were raised here, both in this post, the replies to it, and the one it replied to.
