  1. @James Rhodes
    Ideally you would check to see which of several predefined ranges each point is located in, however I simply counted. Hence if two users are exactly on top of each other I would not have counted them. (I did not have access to the co-ordinates other than by clicking on each user and seeing the link to their position).

  2. How did you create that graph Phil? I was going to create one, but I had no idea how I was going to approach the problem of mapping longitude and latitude to countries.

  3. I guess I’d fall under “player skills”– though my previous games have been more like experiments with different mechanics than full featured games.

    That should change soon…
