A community for Cartographers with nothing left to lose.

Rules:

Don't be awful Lemmy Guidelines Still Apply.

No direct upload images This is hosted on Lemm.ee- to post images, you must use an image upload service like Imgur to post maps.

We are agents of chaos I've created this to be the alternative to the community I used to manage on the website that shalt not be named "mapporncirclejerk"

Live and let die Meme trends happen, so please don't message mods asking to take down maps that are repetitive to a bit.

Reposts Vs. Covers Not all reposts are evil- if someone posts something that has been done years ago, it serves to bring old memes to the new users. I call these meme covers. However it can be done in excess which makes it a repost and spam. Mods will determine if a post is a cover or a repost.

No impersonating mods I can't believe I had to make this rule.

No harassing mods on an appeal We can talk it out, and we will be acting in good faith when making decisions. If you disagree with a removal, you are free to message for clarification or to appeal by giving some added context.

Bans Bans will be set to a maximum of 365 days for humans, and a minimum of 365 years for bots. I believe people can change, so if you are banned for good reason, do know that it is not permanent, it is just a way to say "take time to grow and come back when you are ready".

Sample output from my D&D pub name generator:

Goblin and Squirrel
Golden Pot
Sleepy Troll
Cheerful Spoon
Baldric and Frog
Green Toad
Stoat and Halberd
Goose and Halberd
Squirrel and Halberd
Goblin and Sword
Well Fed Duck
Laughing Duck
Eye and Goblin
Squirrel and Hen
Kobold and Dog

Dunno why it likes halberds so much here. It has its moods.

Nice, something like "the halfling Arms" could work well. "The old green troll" too.

It must be compensating for everyone taking glaives over halberds in D&D 5e despite having identical stats

I never met a glaive I didn't like.

Some of the pub names I used to frequent when younger, although many are closed down and I don’t go in pubs anymore.

  • The Swan
  • The Bay Horse -> The Bay -> Bar One
  • British Queen
  • Horse Shoe
  • The Lord Raglan
  • The Bee Hive
  • Morning Star
  • The New Swan
  • The Cross
  • The Brickcroft
  • The The Railway
  • The Victoria
  • The Royal Oak -> Last Order -> The Royal Oak
  • The Fleece
  • The Olde Bell

I’m bored now 😂

My father moved to France and opened an expat (read imigrant, they can't use one word for themselves and use another for others) bar called the old lord raglan.

Thanks! I don't believe new, old/olde or horse are in my word list. Editing...
