I'm in Hartselle, AL - a little town (think Mayberry on steroids) south of Huntsville, AL.
Your turn!
Sunny and subtropical Pensacola, FL. Its on every map, so no fancy map picture. I don't worry about the haunting sound of a banjo playing in the distance either....j/k
EDIT: I added a map for ya anyways... :P
Delightful Sandy Springs GA, a northern suburb of metro Atlanta GA. My geek-fu is insufficient to do the Google Map insert. :(
It's easy - just head to http://maps.google.com, type in your location, then click "Link" at the far right. Copy the code under "Paste HTML to embed in website" and yer done! :D
+1 Geek-fu for Bob!
If I'm not back home living down the road from Gomer in Mayberry--I mean Ashy in Hartselle. ;)
You could also see me in Siem Reap for this summer if you happen to be in that neck of the woods. :D
edit: Bob, as you can see, it has flummoxed me as well. :P
Directions on how to do this are in Bob's post above, Benraven. :)
SSSSHHHHAAAAAZZZZAAAAMMMM!!!
I live in Chattanooga, TN. It's not nashville or knoxville or memphis, and it's over Georgia. There's my map lol.
That is what I did and resulted in the above. Deleted, re-searched, re-submitted. Exactly the same. :\
I blame my roommate's possessed computer for the snaggle-toothed results.
Under "Input Format" under the post, be sure "FULL HTML" is checked, then they'll show up.
Thanks, Ashy! I'll be sure to remember that for future reference. :)
I'm up in Chesterland, Ohio, just east of Cleveland. Should I start feeling lonely?

I'm here in beautiful Santa Rosa County in Florida. (Although I don't know if I got the map thing right.)
Awesome, Lumberklik! So glad to have you on the boards! :D
Boom! Hattiesburg, MS for me! Petal is the actual city name, but it's... yanno... close enough.
Thanks, TinyKing! You need to contact Davis and get an Untold game going! :D He's about 40 mins. from ya!
Kewl. Now I'm interested in hearing how you came to Mobicon, TInyKing!
Thanks, Gixxy - and welcome to the boards!
I'm glad to have joined too Ashy.
How do you get the map thing to work, I don't seem to see that full format thing.
also I showed my friends (the ones that wanted to start a D&D club) and they seem more than willing to learn it. We are hopefully going to meet up Saturday or anytime after this week (this Thursday or Friday is the last day, still need to ask the school principal about it, lol) and so I'm making my first campaign with my dad's help (he used to DM so he's helping me with GMing.)
I would argue that Untold is the most family friendly RPG out there!
Good to see you on here gixxy! If you have any questions or if the principal has any, feel free to contact us. We will be happy to answer. Also, my dad recently moved to New Orleans, so if you ever needed or wanted some help, Ben and I could head in that area.
Again, Dovebear nails it! Please let us know if there's ANYTHING we can do to set your principal at ease, gixxy! We'd be happy to give him a demo and make things happen for you. Also, I'm totally STOKED to hear that you and your Dad are working on stuff together - that ROX!!!
Oh, and I fixed your map, above! :D
Oh and +25 UP to gixxy for coming to Mobicon!
Yeah, he isn't gonna do anything about it right now since there is only 3 days left before summer but he said to talk to him about it after the next term starts. Can't wait.
Thanks Ashy, for both the UP and for fixing the map.
We're willing to come by whenever needed!
Yer most welcome, gixxy! Keep us posted on how it goes and as Ben said; let us know if you need anything from WMS! :D
Does anyone know how to make one of those "push-pin" google maps? I'd like to have one map with all our locations on it if possible. :)
I used to. But Google went through so many updates on the way maps are set up that I have no clue anymore. I'll check it out though and see if I can figure it out.
Thanks, gixxy - there's UP in it for ya! :)
So, hate to ask, but who is Davis and where are you? I'd love to get some games going. It would be awesome getting together and play some Untold.
LOL...
This should help: http://untoldthegame.com/wms
From left to right: Davis, Ashy, Nathan and Hall
Nathan and I live in North AL (Huntsville), Hall's in B'ham, and Davis is in Columbia, MS.
i found a way.
First you HAVE to have a google account.
Then (after signing in) you go to google maps and in the side bar there is a link that says 'my maps'.
Then go to 'create a new map'
After that, Type in the name of the city, ect.
the normal pink/red blip appears.
then type int he next and again in the side bar you'll see the place you entered before with a checkbox next to it.
click the check box and a blip of another color will appear there.
thats it, if you don't understand something ask me :)
