As a player and a GM, I really want to thank you for doing this awesome cartography, specifically for the Forgotten Realms.

No, but I will eventually. Sorry I don't have one now. The foul mood that was fostered on me slowed down the progress I was making on the 'canon' FR maps (including blank versions). I do have a blank 'Old Empires' map in my gallery - it only shows the lower half of the Taan region though.

Funny thing is, I have been working on that region like crazy the past few days, but its the version thats part of my 'Amalgam world' (The Misbegotten Realms), so I doubt you'd want that (and its not finished besides - I'm doing a LOT more tweaking now).

Hey, Markustay, really nice work on the maps. I don't suppose there's a possibility you have a bare map (without settlement, adventure site names, etc) of the Hordelands lying around?

I'm just in a foul mood after that last one... I haven't given up entirely. I just need to take a break for awhile. I've actually gone back to work on my 'Misbegotten Realms' (the Frankensteined version of the map) because I started a campaign there.

I've gotten some new info from Ed Greenwood himself, so expect an update of the Western Heartlands map soon.

Peace --- Mark

Ooooo, from Ed himself. Now I'm excited!

However much whinging people may do, keep in mind that your maps are, in fact, ridiculously awesome. Just do them as and when suites you and ignore the idiots.

At the very least, your maps have vastly enriched my games. I'm definitely looking forward to whatever else you produce.

Cheers!

I've followed the "conversation" on the CK forum, and I'm going to agree with you on your characterization of him. I'd like to know that I could say something to change your mind, but I won't try. You'll come back if you want to. Needless to say, a very heartfelt thank you for the work you've done on these maps (in particular your North/Western Heartlands maps recently).

I've recently gotten into a 'heated debate' with the Gentleman Gamer, who seems to think that Toril should only be presented the way he sees it. I will no longer be doing FR maps because I do them for fun, not to argue with twits all day long.

Thanks for all the memories.

Does the Gentleman Gamer have two accounts on CK? No need to answer, just pointing out the doubt.

Despite all that, you should do them -because- you do them for fun.

A lot of these are really good, and there's people who appreciate what you do.

I'm sorry to hear there are twits who will argue with you about it, but... that is how the internet goes. If you're going to let this guy ruin all that, well... that is, as always, your choice.

But thanks for what you have done. I've always hoped for a Border Kingdoms blank or the like, but you have plenty of good material to use as is!

Keep it classy.
