    I mentioned that they were confusing to me because they looked like pillars but there was a passage way through them. I wasn't sure whether the lighthouse was on a hill or in a cove then later you marked the area around them with what appeared to be rock with a blue grid that looked like the water. I was just confused at this point but in the end when the black went in it became clear to me and it was a really good map.

    I know you did old style so you were in two color. Sometimes the change of color for depth can give a really fast visual clue and you don't think about it because you just know. A series of contours with no height indicators cannot distinguish between a hill and a basin.

    I went for Witch's Rock. I hate French passionately, but the style of the regional map was so... memorable. Whenever I read the threadlines on the boards, I always had to think "Wait, which one was that again?" but with Witch's Rock that time was the shortest, if I even had to think.

    My second choice would've been RobA, because it gets the alternative Bonus, and it's scifi to boost. I'd have to show this to my brother who's been dabbling in GURPS Space, it might turn out useful...

    RobA should have gotten one more vote, as I misread the close date and did not cast my own ballot. It was an innovative design with excellent execution and the map on the side was magnificent.

    Thank you for all those who cast ballots my way, most appreciated.

    OK, Publius, because the voting times were off this month, having gotten a late start and all, I edited the poll to add to RobA's tally, although in the future we'll have to call it quits when the polls close.

    Even so, congrats Publius, you are our winner this month! Great job and well deserved--although I was quite impressed with all this month's entries! What, it was a bumper crop! Good job to all.
