...you could put objects in there and have a poem -and- a map. I cleared out some space with how I structured the poem. I just didn't want to take the time to put objects in. It really could've been something great.

You all dragged your baseless hostilities into it, instead. I came to expect this of NUMA, and I'm not surprised.

...and this is why. I'm apparently not allowed to make maps anymore, because of the enmity people have for me baased on my name. You'll never be able to view any of my maps as good, Arona, because you've decided that their only quality must be that I made them.

This, among other reasons, is why I gave up so long ago. You've continued to prove to me a point I sadly knew long ago--the people here are petty and vindictive.

...it -had- to be 713 characters, to fit the same size as a tileset.

You clearly don't understand the restrictions I was writing under. And, yeah, we get that you don't appreciate the map and view it as a waste of NUMA's immeasurable space, and all that shit.

But, frankly, I don't see why you're so against this. If any other user was able to pull off this feat, I'd appreciate them too--for their efforts.



In the end, though, you're right. It's probably best we stick to the same mine and tile rearrangements for another few years, lest something like this map gets created again.

...that this poem contains precisely 713 characters, no a single one more. It does not use the letters from R-Z. So, no "the" or "that" or "this" or "is" or "what" or "was", no plurals, etc. The poem was very much constrained, and took several hours to write.

And if you believe it's an easy task to type out a poem like this--which is still remotely good, metaphoric, filled with imagery--and if you believe that it could be done "randomly", I do encourage you to do it.

It was an experimental work and it was rather intriguing in its process. But if you think that I should have made another junk map like every other done-to-death map on the NUMA newest page instead of attempting a bit of novelty and innovation, I'll keep that in mind before I waste your time.



Consider that I made maps in the 4,000 range, and this map is in the 116,000s. Two years ago, I was quoted as saying "nothing more can be done with N". I was correct. Absolutely correct. Shame on me for trying to prove myself wrong, and do something--anything--to amuse some folks.

None of the words contain letters from R to Z--a rather castrating restriction! Also, 713 characters total.

...look closely at the map. You'll understand.
