That's pretty cool. It's a bit lonely down under though :-(
-
There you go, I have bolstered the ranks of Australian Miggy owners on that map :lol:
-
Nice! :-D
-
Done! But I don't actually live in Rochester, its just the nearest city...
-
I'm in! Up in the cold north.

Wow! That is far up there. :)
I was the farthest up north until you came and showed us how it's done. :lol:

WHO IS THE ADMIN OF THE SITE PLEASE? :-?
I need to make some change of my map location...
-
my city (Belgrade) isn't listed :-( :-( :-(
-
yes it is
-
Cannot add myself. Spain isn't in the selection tab :evil:
-
Can't add myself. Ostersund (Östersund)isn't listed.
A bit strange there is 30-40000 ppl living here.
-
Spain? Tell me where is the city named Spain? :lol:

I think there is a city in Jamaica called 'Spanish Town', is that close enough? ;-)
-

i dropped a note on amigaworld telling a few needed help.

There have to be some other Amigans in the state of Connecticut right? Ah well, no Connecticut user group for me.
I think tonsofpcs is the closest to me thus far...
-
I suddenly feel lonely up here in western Canada. :-(
-
Yes, I'm an idiot - there are two of me, because I thought you could only input cities and not towns :idea:
-
Hello,
to those of you who asked for incorrect entries to be deleted I have done so. Also please note that the map is becoming somewhat overloaded because there are so many users, but that's good :lol:
So it takes a while to load the page... and by default only the last 100 users are shown, which means that you have to click on "Show all markers" to see them all. :-)
A few tips when adding yourselves: if you do not live in the US remember to first click on "Not in the US? Click Here" and then type the name of your city slowly to allow the database to load. :) If your town is not on the map just choose the closest big city instead.
Ok, now we are ready to take over the world :lol:
-
keep those entries coming. we are up to 236 as of this morning.
-
This is fun!!
I just added myself. Another one in Holland. Good too see that ther're still some Amigans left in Holland
-
Ok, its not surprise to me at this time..im used to be the only one in Argentina...but now i should have a neighbord in Chile...
I dont want to be alone anymore!!!
Please somebody willing to move to Buenos Aires??
Lovely city
Beatiful girls
Excellent meat
Very cheap (at least for you!)
:-D :-D :-D :-D
-
I would LOVE to move to Buenos Aires. One of my friends from England moved there two years ago - he came back here for a few months, but HAD to go back there because he missed the place.
Its just where to get a job...?
-
Fascinating. Notice the Asia-Africa "Amiga wasteland". (for obvious reasons - I don't think Commodore had outlets in Uganda)
Just think - what if Commodore had ignored the puny 1 billion of North America and Europe, and focused on the 2 1/2 billion people in China and India. (..computers in India? no way! :crazy: )
What? No Amigas in Greenland? What do they DO all day?

@alenppc
Does that mean my Cyberus, Rochester entry has been removed? I can't check at work because that page won't load here.
-
Right very miffed. Tried to add myself. Put in the nearest city to where I live, and it says city not found. Considering its the capital of Wales, I find this very strange. Can Cardiff be added to the list please
-
I'm on there now!
:-)
It's great to see all the Amiga users on the map.

Cardiff is on the map, just type very slowly to give it time to find it. Also don't forget to switch to outside US first. ;-)
-
Im on it, although its got me the wrong side of Lichfield but hey.
Cool thing but I prefer the A.org IRC map.
Is there any way to get little flags to show where everyone is, cause that would be cool.
/me goes outside with a large flag
EDIT....
Hmm, Opera doesnt show the flags.. but IE does
/me stops waving the flag
-
Added one from Croatia. ;)
-
only 3 users in Czech rep? :pissed:

Correct!
Thank you very much! Although, its a shame I seem to have disappeared behind another user in Maidstone - weird, since two users in Oxford are a little bit set apart...
I guess there's no pleasing some people! ;-)

"Hmm, Opera doesn't show the flags... but IE does"
Ahem, I shall have to look again - thought it was surprisingly uninspiring :lol:
