Mapping World Domination
After replying to [url=http://www.bungie.net/Forums/posts.aspx?postID=42600895]this thread[/url] last week I thought to myself, "we need an updated map of the progress of Bungie's world domination." So, I decided to start up a [url=http://www.zeemaps.com/map?group=154178]Bungie Community Map[/url] where the members of Bungie.net can mark their location and we can see how far Bungie's "reach" currently stretches.
This has been done before quite a few years ago, and it worked out well. [url=http://www.bungie.net/Forums/posts.aspx?postID=5184319]VII Toast[/url] (and shortly after [url=http://www.bungie.net/Forums/posts.aspx?postID=5889087]AJAQ[/url]) created a Frappr map and had quite a few markers all over the world. Sadly, Frappr is now [url=http://platial.typepad.com/news/2010/02/geographic-euthanasia-the-end-of-platial-as-we-know-it.html]dead[/url] and I don't know if anybody downloaded the data. If anybody happened to grab the data prior to it being deleted, I can upload the file and update the new map.
To add yourself to this map, all you have to do is click on the "Additions" menu at the top of the screen and select "Add Marker". All you now have to do is fill in the information in the dialog box. If you don't wish to put in your [b]actual[/b] City/Postal Code for "security" reasons, you can at least select a nearby City/Postal Code so we could get a reasonable representation. You can also go to the "Media" tab of the dialog box and add a picture of you/your avatar if you wish, but keep it clean (I'll delete any inappropriate images I see).
Anyway, I would love to see how close to Bungie [i]really[/i] is to world domination. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask.
PS: I was going to try Google Maps, but that seemed a little too "open" for people to screw with.
Edit: To make it a little more visible (per Qbix's suggestion), here is the only link in this thread that really matters:

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Qbix89 BTW dmbfan, awesome thread.[/quote]Originally VII Toast's idea, I just wanted it updated due to Frappr's end.

That's a pretty cool idea you have here. I added myself.

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] LordOfBlah51 I added myself to the map. It seems that my marker goes almost directly over the Studio picture >.>[/quote]Mine pretty much does go over the Bungie logo. So your in Gig Harbor? I for one am in Seattle. Washington FTW! And this is a very cool idea. It will be cool to see it all come together. I say we start taking bets on how many markers will be added by next Monday. [Edited on 04.09.2010 7:21 AM PDT]
