While this wiki does have talk pages, it is probably faster and more convenient for players to discuss aspects of the game and the wiki on the following Yahoo! Group, which has been created for this game:

Discussion regarding the map showing player locations.
Hmm... apparently, I live in Turkey. :D That's a far cry from Japan. Still, my last attempt put me slap-bang in the middle of the Arctic Ocean. Ho hum. Apparently this is easy for UK and US people. James. [should be here! :D]
I don't mean to be a pain (well, Ok, sometimes I do), but the map shows Japan ans is in Kanji. I don't read Kanji. --Rencheple 04:17, 15 February 2006 (PST)
I've tried adding my location, and the location of the covenant, by putting in latitude and longitude figures above - but apparently nothing. How should I be doing it? --OldNick 07:00, 15 February 2006 (PST)
I was trying to use the centering function to work out my coordinates. For some reason it won't accept my coordinates, but I have verified them on a couple of sites. You don't need to read kanji unless you live in Japan and want to add yourself... :D Those of us who live in Japan will tell you what our place names are called.
I can recentre the map to any location and scale, and also change the size, btw. It is only Japan that is in Kanji - the rest of the world is in English.
If it says "We are sorry..." and shows an area of grey, then it is lying... zoom in and out to restore the area. It's very groovy, but it doesn't work very reliably.
Cheers, james.
I can zoom right in to my own house, but I don't see any way to put a marker there, or to enter my coordinates. Is this some sort of OSX incompatibility, or am I suffering from my own negative Perception? --Eirlys 14:09, 21 February 2006 (PST)
No, you need to visit a website with a free 'Geocoder'. If you do a search for your city, you might find its coordinates listed, but if you want to be more accurate, you will have to visit a free site, and use their map to zoom in and obtain coordinates.
I'm sure the host will fix this at some point (or declare it broken!) :D
I did that, I found my lat & long, and thought I had added them to the code, based on other stuff there, but still my house doesn't seem to have a marker however close I zoom. I know it's not the most important thing in the game ;-) but being a bit of atech head I still want to know what I should be doig to make it work ;-)
Any chance we could do a Frappr Map instead? --Rencheple 13:12, 22 February 2006 (PST)
