Where is everyone from?? - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

Lhunardawen · 05-17-2004, 02:35 AM

US...Europe...*sigh*

I live in the Pearl of the Orient. Need a hint? It's in Asia.

HerenIstarion · 05-17-2004, 05:43 AM

The Asia is big, to be sure

, would you narrow us a search field?

I for myself come from someplace in between Asia and Europe, as Georgia is nearer to Middle East than Europe Proper, but is member of European Council and aims at European Union, so, it is to be said, it is technically Europe. But I suppose you people would be interested in seeing

The Map of the Barrow-Downers

It is of some two years previously, so not accurate, but gives the general idea of how are we spread out all over the world

Now you can add a green dot in the small country of Latvia , for it seems I`m the only Downer from the Baltic states even

HerenIstarion does each one of the green dots represent one Barrow-downs member, or does it represent something like 10? Or does it just represent that Barrow-downs members live there?

That map is cool though, but it does need updating. HerenIstarion are you the one who made it?

I may have posted here, but, in all honesty, I can't remember, and I see the need to take notice of all these Marylanders. I myself am a Virginian, reveling in my Virginianity, but I end up in Maryland often. There seem to be a lot of BDers checkering the US East Coast, more than I expected. Someday I must go up there and find one of you people...unless that would be considered Stalkeritis...which it very well might.

I'm lucky enough to live in a picturesque little town in Northern VA, very much resembling the Shire in its country, old fashioned goodness. No traffic, no hustle or bustle. Industrialization has crested the horizon, but is still far. Plus, though small and untouched by corporational tech, we've got eons of historical necessity, ala the home of General George C. Marshall, Marquis de Lafayette's favorite tavern, the site of the Battle of Ball's Bluff (one of the Civil War's first skirmishes) and other stuff too. Bonus points if anyone can name the town, but I wouldn't bet on it.

I could find me on the map, and I wasn't hee two years ago. Cool map!

HerenIstarion · 05-18-2004, 02:00 AM

Nay, I did not make the map, the BD team did it, we mere mortals (or humble dead?) simply provided our locations. Each dot represented the town, it could have contained anything from 1 to infinite number of members, according to number of those living there. Per instance, the green dot on Georgia (republic of, not US state) at the time of contrivance of the map in question represented yours truly solely, and now must be viewed as representing three members of the board, since two more Georgians of the same town (allegedly, since they rarely visit, though) joined the deceased
