I don't think that I'll be sending the map to 25 different gatherings,
thanks. At $60 or so each way for shipping, it would add up awfully fast!
The three main US fests are certainly a good place to start.
I'm still wondering how to handle LUG's. Now that I've seen the map
displayed at Brickswest, I'm rethinking the 2x2 tile idea. I really liked
the clean, neat look of the map with just the dots on them.
Any other opinions from the brickswest attendees?
Adrian
