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.

If you get campaign design help, how do you do it?

Quote from: mcbobbo;749627As for the map, well I cheated.  I found part of Asia on Bing maps that had all the features I wanted, then snipped, rotated, and applied some filters to make it look drawn instead of photographic.

There is no cheating on maps, if it looks good, it looks good; and those look good.

Quote from: mcbobbo;749339So what works for you, if you're the type who gets help?


I'll bounce ideas off of people to see what they think, if the concept makes sense or not. I'm picky about who I bounce the ideas off of, though, because there is a certain amount of education and knowledge on the subject involved the person needs to give good feedback.

Everyone has an opinion, but when it matters for helpful feedback, I'd rather have an informed opinion on the subject.

So I posted it on this site I like full of smart, creative people.  It got 120 views in the first day, but only one comment...

:)

So seriously guys, speak up.  Please.  Does the board mostly agree with dragoner or is it too stifiling or something? I am happy with the one positive note I got, but I still feel like I failed in the whole 'learn how to get feedback' mission of this post.

Yeah - that's where the Brahmaputra comes out of Tibet right through the Himalayas, and meets up with the Ganges to flow into the Bay of Bengal. Tibet, India, Bangaladesh, and Myanmar all meet here. I don't think there's anyplace on earth I wouldn't recognize chopped and rotated - even mirrored.
