New Feature: Gamingforce Member Google Map
 
I have just added a feature that allows users to post their locations on a Google map!

To add your location, just click on the "[Your location]" link and then find your locaton on the map then click on it!

The server automatically updates the maps every hour (at XX:12) so it won't appear immediately.

Users who abuse the system will not be allowed to use it anymore.

To access the Member Google Map. On the top navigation bar, click on Quick Links and select "GF Member Google Map".

Enjoy and let me know if you have any questions!

Awesome feature, and I'm the first (er, second) person to take advantage of it! I hail from Toronto. What's the image size limit though? Mine's rather large...

Looks like I was the first European to wake up today. :)

scotty Jun 5, 2006 01:04 AM

pretty cool, too bad they forgot my road, and there is no satalite image of my area yet (damn free.user squeezes in) come on J-Man help represent Vancouver Island!

Roph Jun 5, 2006 01:21 AM

So bobo lives underwater then.

Looks like I'm the first from the UK~

Ah crap. This is something which'll keep me occupied for far too long time.

First in Scandanavia, hola!

Mucknuggle Jun 5, 2006 02:59 AM

Cool. I've updated it with my info. Don't stalk me guys.

I added myself, one of the two people ('sup Xpander) in Texas so far (I know there are more people here from Texas though). I wonder how old the satellite images are though, since my house (and a lot of my area, for that matter) hasn't even been built yet, even though it's been here for almost a year and a half now.

Bigblah Jun 5, 2006 03:13 AM

Starman's access has been granted!

The satellite images are about 2 years old. My university's new main hall (check my location on the map to find my university) was built around that time and the map shows a construction site.

Haha this is great. Much better than that other member map that was all blurry and spazed out if you kept swishing the mouse pointer on and off really fast.

IN-DEPTH CONVERSATION.

I'm going to reinforce the support in Germany a bit. I like how you could be able to call me now at home. The chances that you'll call the right house in my street isn't even that small, something about 4%! Don't even try.

I get the same thing, so it looks like Retired Staff needs to be added to the list, too.

Strangely, I also don't have a link to "Who viewed my profile", so that might be usergroup related too.

Lord Styphon Jun 5, 2006 07:21 AM

Retired Staff's Google Map and profile viewing privileges have been fixed.

Secret Squirrel Jun 5, 2006 07:35 AM

Thanks, Styphon. Everything is working perfectly now.

Summonmaster Jun 5, 2006 01:21 PM

I like how I'm smushed in the Central Ontario area, where my marker overlaps with Infernal's and Freelance's markers.

Freelance Jun 5, 2006 01:33 PM

Oops....I never realized you could zoom in to reveal actual roads!!! Due to this new relevation, I've readjusted my marker to reveal my true location. Yay.

Fluffykitten McGrundlepuss Jun 5, 2006 02:23 PM

Nice feature.

I'm the only green peg on the map!

I'm not entirely sure why Bean thinks Scotland is in the middle of the Atlantic though...

Lord Styphon Jun 5, 2006 02:39 PM

Maybe he thinks he's Napoleon.

map car man words telling me to do things Jun 5, 2006 03:42 PM

This is pretty neat, much more interesting than the IP map. My house is pinpointed to the cm now.

Spatula Jun 5, 2006 08:59 PM

I clicked on my city, and then when I zoomed down close enough, it just so happened I stabbed it somewhere near one of my friends house =0!

YO PITTSBURGH MIKE HERE Jun 5, 2006 09:13 PM

Sup Wojo? Pistolvania reppin'.
