"In fact, in Rand McNally, they wear hats on their feet and hamburgers eat people!" "Cool!"
Just something random I was thinking while looking at the legend. :P
Please tell me you did not try and carve out 35 subdivisions in OMGFKK! Well, the most southwestern state (which includes San Andreas) would be Santa Califia. The state next to it (bordering Colorado Is.) would be Kennsylvania. But Kennsylvania is supposed to contain the tallest mountain in OMGTKK - do you have any idea which mountain in my territory is the tallest?
Also Philimbesi's back; maybe he might want a piece of the pie, too?
I have not carved out all 35 sub-divisions... yet. I have 22 divisions on there. But only the ones named are effectively "final" as they passed your scrutiny.
The tallest mountain in OMGTKK would be Mount Hope: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mount_Hope_(Palmer_Land)
For more large, rocky bastards: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Ultras_of_Antarctica I was thinking I should probably just do this list on the map (unless we want me to take a major geo survey map and literally copy every peak, bay, ice tongue, and name on it).
I must say yinz have done a really nice job! Have a Klondike Bar!
<gives Exxosia a Klondike Bar>
Welcome back Philimbesi, Murray would normally be doing the greeting, but he's currently plotting a nefarious scheme involving Catgirls wearing tap-shoes, weasels, vats of whipped cream, and tubas. Your penguins have all been rounded up, branded and returned to your nation by the Gnomish Warbands...they consider penguin round ups to be part of the rent they extort...err...services provided to AO member states.

Yay!
I downloaded some data on the mountain ranges and peaks... there are about 300 named peaks in this file. So now I am not sure if I want to list the ultras, the top X, or just mountainkkake the entire thing and do all of them.

I decided to do the top 150 peaks. The Palentine is hoarding mountains. I downsized the mountain icon to 50% and the text from 7 to 5 point to make them less crowding in places. I kept Vinson at 100% not because I am a snob, but simply because it is the tallest on the continent, so I figured it got a special treatment.
Thank you all, glad to be back, and thank you for the help organizing our penguins.
Exxosia If you wouldn't mind carving out some nice ocean front ice, perhaps with a bay we would be very appreciative. No rush.
can i get a piece of land? ya know, somewhere in the north :s
It's easiest if you download the image, scale it, MS paint some vague border lines on, and then I will follow the actual contours/latitude/longitude. There is that area of coast up to the mountain range crest from Exxosia to LMD that can be divided into one to three nations that has a fair number of bays and would not interfere with Quadalingo if they came back.
North as in North (since everything is North) or North as in the top of the picture?
That made me laugh. :D

I think I can redo the borders so as to make Colorado Island, Kennsylvania, and Santa Califia share borders with each other. Mt. Hope would look like it was on the Kennsylvania border with wherever, but the peak would be on the Kennsylvania side, but I could move the border to the other crest line.
I also had a thought for a state: The Tweaklands. One of the more rugged of the Palmer states. All the cold brew coffee in OMGTKK comes from The Tweaklands of course. They just roast the plants, douse them with water, and let the coffee seap through the ice and slush; very artisanal.
I just realized you're not on the map. You're one of the big three in terms of residency and influence, you should have been on this map long before even I was.
Don't worry too much about "overlooking" Krio. He is omnipresent. He's...everywhere. :P He always seems to pop up whenever we need him. And so on; everyone loves him. Moving on...
Be respectful of Karmi and Douria's former lands when doling out new office space. Kivisto, however, you can slash apart with with a freakin' machete if it suits you. (He won't take it personally; he hasn't been back in over a decade.)
Do what you you will with OMGTKK's tallest peak; just make sure it's in Kennsylvania. Also, raise it about 1,000m - that way, it doesn't overshadow your tallest peak, yet it still lives up to its nickname, "The Widowmaker." (Legal designation, K-4.) Have fun with it.
Got it, gerrymander Krioval into a noodle that touches everyone in their special places. :D
I was already being mindful of those two to the point that I was almost tempted to just put them on as ghost images. The only part of either that was maybe going to get sliced into was the far right side of Douria, but only about a 20 to 50 km sliver to bring it back to the contour of the mountains. That spot from the Douria border to the archipelago was where I was tempted to put Perpetual Exemption if Philimbesi took the entire Exxosiloisian Corridor.
Give Mount Hope viagra, got it. And if you want, I will rename it to the Widowmaker or Mount Widowmaker.

Version 17: Borders shifted, Kennsylvania and Santa Califia labeled, Mount Hope is now 1km taller and renamed The Widowmaker (you might want to make a factbook entry as to how it got taller), and another 40 mountains are labeled across the continent.
In the Palentine the "most Northern" ( ie upwards while looking at the Map)within my borders is Mt Manisthathigh, the traditional spot where upstanding Palentine Citizens like Senator Sulla climb to flip the world and the AO neighbors the double fisted bird.
There also be dragons there...or at least one, but he's civilized, urbane, witty, and fond of light Gilbert and Sullivan Operas.😁
You know Bossman, you're absolutely right about Krio. In all the years I've known him, and witnessed debates in the Festering Snakepit I've never seen him make an enemy. Even when he rips a proposal to shreds, the proposal author doesn't get pissed off. Heck, even the twin scions of Doom that must never be named didn't hate him when he peed on their latest attempts to force their vile will upon the Snakepit.

Version 18:
1. Mt. Manisthathigh added in The Palentine.
2. Karmicaria and Douria ghost states added so nobody has to worry about their territories being taken.
3. Karmicaria Southern border gains territory from Kivisto because that indent was giving me issues and who is going to worry about the border of a nation that is not coming back? Not me, the regional cartographer... Not at all... (I will worry forever).
4. N00bianal proposed as a local term for a nation you have to go South and then North again to reach.
Is Antarctic Altenar gone for good or do they get a ghost? I could also put Quadalingo in if we were concerned.
Krioval is populated by Pacific Islanders (and some wayward Vikings) who might find Antarctica a bit chilly for their taste. There are a few hardy souls who enjoy the biting cold and questionable company, however.
Ugh! Palentine! It's Manisthishigh! :D
Exx: The name is K-4, but you can put "the Widowmaker" in quotes. (Not a big deal, it's just a lame joke I stole from The Simpsons. Remember the one where Homer becomes a fitness buff and then some energy-bar brand wants him to climb the mountain as a publicity stunt?) Don't worry too much about altan or quad; we haven't heard from either of them in years.
Also, congratulations! You are now a Charter Nation. (Don't worry; the "job" does not take up a lot of your time.) Details here: http://nswiki.org/index.php?title=Region/Antarctic_Oasis#Government
I think the only CNs left standing are krio, Palentine and myself, but we could always use a fourth.
Fixed.
Fixed.
YAY! I'M RECHARDED!

Version 18:
1. Fixed names
2. Added 32 more mountain labels
3. Added a Thessadorian joke to the mountains bordering the highway entrance into The Palentine; will remove if not okay.
4. Considering putting Perpetual Exemption on far right as it is Northernmost, putting Phil— in northeast bordering jenstown as it is rich in bays and a large area for a large country.
"San Andreas Bay." I love it! The Thessadorian jokes are delightful, and I doubt Palentine would have a problem with them. More meandering thoughts tomorrow.
