Please give me some help with Colmar. I've done a rough draft but I need help with place names.

Thanks,
 
if you knwo that much about this map already then you know more than most eGO members that play on our colmar server.. lol it just started up and we are still trying to get people to play so your prolly better off than most of us right now.. haha i didnt even know all of the names.. i just know my way around the map.
 
I just made up the names that I thought made sense. What I am interested in is the standard names that the frequent players use. If this is good enough I can clean it up and post it.

Colmar has street names. Should I add them?

colmar doesn't have standard names as ava, donner, and flash.

remember, colmar started as a custom map. it doesn't have the following the standard maps have.

Here's the one you can find in the Strategic Map Collection.

looks great, only difference i've heard playing colmar over the years is the "gun" is always referred to as allies or axis "a-a." (referring to its anti-aircraft nature). ie: ron paul is camping to the left of the axis aa. gun most certainly works, but i would assume AA was used due to all the "guns" that people use in gameplay. thanks again for adding to ur already awesome collection quaffer!

i fixed it for you, I think this works as well as you could make it quaffer, not wild about calling out the street names though haha
 
Here's a bit of history for you. My dad was in the field artillery in WWII. Calling anything that a soldier could carry all by his lonesome a "gun" was an anathema to him. Guns were something that were self powered, pulled behind a vehicle, or broken down and carried on mules. (He started out as a "mule skinner" and was then sent to Officers Candidate School).
He taught me a little ditty the first time he heard me call my toy enfield a gun.

It goes:

This is my rifle
This is my gun
This is for work
and this is for fun.

I will leave the accompanying hand gestures for the lewd of mind to work out for themselves.
 
Are you sure you don't mean

ie: ron paul is reciting poetry in his best William Shatner impersonation to the left of the axis aa. gun most certainly works, but i would assume AA was used due to all the "guns" that people use in gameplay. collection quaffer!

or

ie: ron paul is searching for his contact lense to the left of the axis aa. gun most certainly works, but i would assume AA was used due to all the "guns" that people use in gameplay. collection quaffer!

or even

ie: ron paul is teaching people the Macarena to the left of the axis aa. gun most certainly works, but i would assume AA was used due to all the "guns" that people use in gameplay. collection quaffer!

???

Because I have never seen this guy camping anywhere.


Also, I am 98% sure that the only reason why we call it the "A.A." instead of the "gun" is just another subtle test to see who plays while drunk ("theyyy're at our AaaaaaaAaaaaaa...")
 
haha, I like the ditty Quaffer.

Spank - I can understand how you could easily mistake rp's camping, what with your current laptop/graphics set up. A lot of people make the same mistake, a new graphics card, some more cpu, and a d key that works should open your eyes up more to the truth.
