    Well, the only Latinos coming from Latin America. I know plenty here already.
    Any Peruvians?

    Please read the instructions in the OP if you want to be added to the map. I'm only mentioning this because you posted a lat/long and I thought you may have mis-read the instructions.

    Sorry zerzhul, I misread. That's what happens when you don't sleep well and are groggy for most of the day. :(

    For checking in your area: If people are in the same city they sometimes get put on top of one another. Click on your own placemark and see if there is a "1 of X" with an arrow in the bottom right corner of the popup. This means there is more than one placemark on top of each other in that spot. Click the arrow to cycle through them.

    @LewieP's Daddy you already had a point on the map, so I ignored your re-submission since it didn't look like anything had changed

  • LewieP's MummyLewieP's Mummy Registered User regular
    I thought it was me on the map, not LPD, am I wrong? Although to be fair he does live in the same house as me!

    You are both on the map. There were previous submissions for both of you, and then a 2nd submission for LPD. You can check to see who's on the map via the search in the upper right (for example, if you type in LewieP's into it, both of your handles show up).

    I was about to point you to the advice below, but it looks like it's not working the same way it did in the past. If you zoom WAY the heck in on those spots, there's a placemark for each of you unless you are literally EXACTLY on top of one another via the GPS coordinates you put in.

    The advice below still stands, but apparently only matters if the points are precisely on top of one another... otherwise you just have to zoom in to your area ;)

    Don't know if this counts or not but I'm in Paris on a study program from the UW. I live in Seattle most of the year. I actually come back from France flying into Seattle the first day of PAX so jetlag is going to be fun going straight from the airport to the convention.

    Zerzhul,

    I submitted an update which is in advance of the move I'll be making next week. It's only 20 miles difference (less as the crow flies but in the name of accuracy, (and perhaps excitement.) I added it.
    Cool thing is, I think I was able to get the marker over roughly what will be our actual game room in that house :P

  • zerzhulzerzhul Registered User, Moderator mod
    I'll be updating this today, sorry for the long delay... then again, there have only been 8 submissions since the last update ;)

    Ohio's a bit underrepresented; I've submitted myself under Beavercreek, flying out of DAY.

    It'll be my 7th visit to that airport during the month of August.

    D'OH!
    See what I get for trying to adjust. I'll fix it later this week.

    Ok it should be fixed, if I screwed up this time Zerzhul, it can just stay where it is and I'll stop being a perfectionist.
