Is there any way we can update the map without erasing what is here? That's what the other game is doing, and the problem is that there is no way for viewers to see the history; furthermore, the witty summaries by the GMs are getting destroyed. I missed Spring 1902's update in the other post, and I'm already confused. Even worse, when the players write their end-of-game summaries about what happened, readers won't have any record to refer to, which partially defeats the purpose of rationalist diplomacy in the first place. Here are my ideas:

  • Make one post per year, and have all the moves and maps for that year

  • Host the seasons somewhere else and link to them from here (or keep updating the LW post, and keep an archive somewhere else).

  • Put it on the wiki, or at least keep a record of the seasons on the wiki. Then we have no problems making a bunch of pages.

  • Something clever someone else thinks of

I'm hosting the maps on Photobucket, so you can see them on my account- I'll add that to the main post. If nobody objects to it/has a better idea, I'm leaning towards using the wiki.

PS: The Spring 1902 update was after building, so no summaries. You can see it here.

ETA: I've added it to the wiki.
