Placements: Map Edition 2012

Postby merkypie » Tue May 22, 2012 7:43 am

Hi everyone~ So placements have been coming out. Since we all like pie charts and stats and cool visual things, why not keep track of everyone's placements in Japan?

Click Here for the Google Map!

Stealing the idea from the 2011 JETs (Please do not ADD yourself to this map. Some people have totally screwed this map), this map is here for JETs to put down where they've been placed once they found out. If you only know your prefecture, put it down then update it when you find out your town.

Thanks! There's new instructions on the map. Congrats, JETs!

Could we get a marker for those of us who did not make a placement request? Preferably with a fun color :3

...I would make it but honestly I'm afraid I would break the whole damn thing.

Added a marker for "no preference" people.

Sadly, I am fairly certain no one gets placed in Tokyo (city, anyway). The people who do get placed in Tokyo prefecture end up being on the outlying islands.

Okay, guys. I just want to put a note that the first five markers on the list are examples. Do not move them or edit them cause people then won't know what to use when they add their placements. I've been cleaning up the map and fixing errors but I can't keep up. If in doubt, just reread the instructions.

I slid the example markers over and put in a new one that looks different from the others so as to try and catch people's eyes easier and not have them move them. (Hope that's okay! D: )

Love the idea btw (even though you stole it! :P). Really cool to see where everyone is going :)

Come on people, you need to write your name (if not real, then like a user name or something) AND the city/town/prefecture you're going to in the Title!! That way it's easier to tell who each marker is for and where it is placed. If you don't know what specific town you're going to be in, at least write the prefecture for now in the the title.

Thanks.
