Since the last person in the chain for "Telephone Map Game: 2017 Edition 2: Electric Boogaloo" isn't responding to my messages, I've decided to skip them and declare the game over! For those unaware, this game involves each player making a map and passing it on to the next player in the list. That player then takes what little information is available to them on that map and tries to make a map set in the same timeline. As a result each map represents a different - and occasionally contradictory - interpretation of the same world. Ultimately this makes for a lovely allohistorical mess. Anyway, here are the maps! First, MinnesotaNationalist:
Second, UpvoteAnthology:
Third, Nekromans:
Fourth, MoralisticCommunist:
Fifth, Likaaon:
Sixth, Void-Wolf:
Seventh, Plvs-Vltra:
Eighth, Soaring Aven:
And finally, CourageousLife:

I just want to thank everyone for taking part - you all knocked it out of the park! I'd also like to apologise for how long this game took. It's partially down to me being tired/busy a lot recently, and so unable to keep checking up on participants' progress. I'm still planning to run telephone map games as a regular thing in the near future, but I think I'll need to add a time limit for how long someone can take for their map - maybe a week, with extensions available in case people need a bit more time or are busy that week.

Let's be honest, the delay was mainly my fault and I apologize for that ^^; Thanks for your patience Krall and for organizing the whole thing. ^_^

I'm surprised that between the 9 of us, no one did Europe and that the Americas were only briefly touched on once. When I got the map from SoaringAven, I assumed that most of the rest of the world was done, so I decided to take a small piece of Oceania where I thought it was still safe enough not to overwrite anyone else's map. Whoops.

Whoops. Accidentally contradicting someone else's map is half of the point - it is interesting to try and make a coherent timeline out of the maps though. Not much would need to change to make your map "canon", you'd just need to have the Netherlands take the North Island at the same time they took parts of British Indonesia.

Interesting to see how this turned out. I think, with a couple of changes here and there, like the previous map game this could be a continuous timeline. Weirder still it goes in order from past to present, I don't think there was one that hopped back in time.
Also can't help but to find it funny how dutch-focused this one ended up becoming, as well as Australia-focused.

Fantastic! But am I the only one that cannot see CourageousLife and MinnesotaNationalist maps? Let's be honest, the delay was mainly my fault and I apologize for that ^^; Thanks for your patience Krall and for organizing the whole thing. ^_^ I am also to blame. I made so much errors on my map it must have slow you down. (And it's not even good compared to yours)
