UserID: 75 |  Frappr Water War Enthusiasts http://www.frappr.com/waterwarenthusiasts1 ^Put yourself on the map! Hopefully you won't have to ever ask if there's a warrior near you again! I got the idea from NH. Hopefully it will work correctly.

UserID: 576 | That's a good idea...I'll add my location when I find a suitable battlefield, be it large or small. Thank goodness they use Google for the mapping service--you don't have to wait for the map to load every time you move the window. I'd put a tag on my house, but I am just a bit too paranoid to do that...

UserID: 75 | What I did was pointed my marker to the center of town. If you zoom in all the way, you will see that it marks a street in the middle of the shopping district. Same for the Team entry. Ha! Take that web predators!

UserID: 576 | Well, that's strange...I zoomed in all the way, and it took me to a bridge in the middle of a park. I assumed it was your home battlefield, but I might have been wrong after all. Thanks for reassuring me, though... I will just add mine to the center of the city, too...why not? Maybe you could put a marker for where the Northeastern Regional Water War and the tentative New England Water War will be, especially if the Northeastern one doesn't occur in Ridgewood itself. EDIT: Uh...I just added in the local zip codes (there are many in this area), and it put a marker way out in the middle of nowhere (well, kinda close, but not too specific). Strange...

UserID: 549 | That's good satellite imaging. It's more or less possible to make out people. I would put myself on, but it's demanding a login. (Or am I doing it wrong?) I'm cautious about signing up to just anything.

UserID: 56 | Regisering takes almost no information, just your desired username and password. I don't see a point in this other than a slight increase in security. I've put myself on there a while ago.

UserID: 576 | Wow...I was only the second marker, but now there are quite a few (14, I believe). Unfortunately, though, it seems as if the UK members are slightly out of the picture. However, it's probably still worth adding a tag, and as Monsoon said, it's just a simple username and password. This thread would work well stickied, in Off-Topic, or in New Users.
