This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

Quote from: Kellri;253411Oh c'mon Shadow, that's too easy. Some of us use the Wilderlands mapping method. We divide 25 mile hexes into 8 mile ones, then 1 mile, then 100 yards, and then 100 feet....all the way down to quarter inch hexes at 1:1 scale. That way you always know EXACTLY where that tree you carved your initials into stands in the whole of Mirkwood. I'd like to see you do that with a ruler. :D
Are you serious?  That sounds like the sort of fiddly detail I love except that it's frustratingly fiddly.
