Map (http://images1.filecloud.com/124476/7IIGalaxyMap.gif)
This was the last update I got from the previous thread by Green Sun (I believe). I would like to have it updated, as there are many new FT nations springing up and it would be nice to have the knowledge of where everyone is to each other.
edit- I'll be taking over the updating of it for the moment because Green Sun doesn't. I'll try updating the link/image after each entry or group of entries, depending on how many I get within a period of time.
edit2- Thanks to some help, we have view of the galaxy map, top-down perspective. Since it shows positions better, we shall replace the previous map with it.

I would say he means this:
Halfway between 0 degrees and 270 degrees (the galaxy is divided into 0/90/180/270 degree sections on the map if you look closely).
Almost certain of it, actually.

You placed me way too close; it's suposed to be 5000 lightyears beyond the rim, afterall.
Based on your map's scale, and the aparent verticle compression resulting from the galactic plain laying on an angle relative to the camera perspective, I'd place the Home Cluster just below the 0º marker.
That's one of the reasons I like the map I use; being a direct top-down view rather than an angled perspective, it's alot easier to gauge distances.
I'd suggest making another picture that zooms in on the area around Sol. It is getting very crowded. Of course I'm not the one doing all the work so it is easy for me to suggest.
I wouldn't mind a solitary space right between Parlim and Kanuckistan along the bottum of the map. Hide me there.. Just call me "Amerath"

Well, I transcribed the map by rotating the original, horizontally stretching it 400%, and then eyeballing it and trying to place the dots on the corisponding part of the galaxy.
As is, one pixel is roughly 110 lightyears on the big map(yes, I counted), so, uh, yeah...

By the way, when you repositioned me, you moved me too close to the rim; the distance should be 5000 lightyears, or roughly 45 pixels. As is, the plotted position is only, oh, call it 3000 lightyears out.

Well, you see, about the age-old transmissions, our people have been using quantum-entanglement-based communications since our progenitors, the Ancestors, settled in that region of space some 7-8 millennia ago...
So no, no residual transmissions are emanating from our space.
As for scoutships, Neo-Mekanta has been trying for hundreds of years to find me, so far to no avail. The closest anyone has gotten to our homeworld would be the nation of the Gaian Ascendancy, when one of their scoutfleets headed into our space after passing through the Thorn/Kaluza system. They never stumbled across our worlds, however.
Secondly, as Kanuckistan mentioned, no one really searches for us, and since we actively and passively patrol a rather large buffer zone of space, no one really gets close. And, as for observing light and monitoring energy, that would require the energy reaching the observer. Which it doesn't. We've mastered enough of spacial technology to ensure that.
Ok well anyway, just because you are on the map doesn't mean everyone knows where you are. This map is oocly. Now if you meet someone icly and exchange locations, which I understand you wouldn't, then you would know where they are and they would know where you are. This map just keeps track of where everyone is.
Unless I am mistaken that is what this map is for.

Ok well anyway, just because you are on the map doesn't mean everyone knows where you are. This map is oocly. Now if you meet someone icly and exchange locations, which I understand you wouldn't, then you would know where they are and they would know where you are. This map just keeps track of where everyone is.
Unless I am mistaken that is what this map is for.
No idea. I like your idea, however.
Tidan, can you put a dot between yourself and Nageroth, north of Arizona Nova, and in the center of the Sagittarius arm near where it sort of merges with the Perseus arm, and label it
Unsere Hoffnung (GZ)
Please? It's a colony I established some time ago, but the puppet died. Now I just consider it a holding of GZ. I'd said it was on the other side of the galaxy, and now I have an idea of its location.
Thanks,
GZ
I don't think we are putting colonies or any other form of holdings on the map. Just capitals.
However, I'll defer to DC or Green Sun on this if they say otherwise, since they are the ones who were doing this before me. That said, you are free to add it yourself to display in your factbook, or webpage, or nswiki if you like.

OOC: Please place the marker "XSS1" slightly north of the Xeno homeworld, near that cluster of civilized worlds.
I wanted to see the XSS1 placed, since it's become a rather public scene for the FT community.
Ya nothing personal, I'm just adopting the 'if I give you a chip, then I will have to give one to everyone else' philosophy. If I put down even one extra holding for everyone the map would become very crowded. It's just better if the map only has capitals.
Again you are free to add it to the map yourself and put the picture in your sig or webpage or whatever so everyone can see where your stuff is.

It's not so much a holding as it is a place where everyone is meeting.
I see what you mean and considering the number of people that visit it I'll put it on. You've got yourself quite the little Babylon 5 there.

The Sskiss are expansionistic. They have already colonized a large number of worlds within 58 star systems including their home system. The Sskiss Creche worlds occupies a roughly spherical area of about 450ly radius within the Saggitarius arm and is centered at roughly 4000 light years coreward from the Sol system and slightly to the galactic north. Most Sskiss worlds were terraformed from formally primordial or Venusian worlds completed eons ago well before the collapse of the Sskiss civilization some tens of thousands of years ago.
