Is that the same AmiKit that posts on Amiga.org and Amigaworld.net? As their user profiles on both sites say they are in Europe.


Would be great to find another user in Eugene, but with me still not being added, and Amikit showing up on the wrong continent, I'm starting to doubt the validity/accuracy of this map.
Amigakit is surely listed in the UK today (7/29/09). Every one I know is where they should be.

What's the reason for the map? I thought it was obvious! They're coming to take us away....

Well, It could be just a coincidence, but ever since "signing" up on the map (yes I did put legit e-mail) I am getting a ton more spam now, and now its all "address" personally. Stuff like OEM software and ink jet refills.
Like I said maybe just a coincedence.
Sad thing is the map puts me about 5-10 km from where I actually live, and there is no way to edit the info.

You can drag your little chip and drop it whereever you like. Mine is exactly where I put it. Maybe you only get once chance though.

edit: nope, looks like they let you log in and move it around.

You'll need to use the "Log in to make changes" option on the site and have it send you a password reset.

edit: how about that, it lets you change your point description but it doesn't seem to let you move or delete your point.

Think this as a security restriction .. Bill G won't be able to see the map, and thus he can't fire any missiles at our homes

working on it .. You will be able to change your point (but not as easy as when setting it in the first place), change public info and private fields (I will even let you wipe everything out if you wish once I have your point validated)

for now, only the Amiga systems can be changed (remove, undo remove, and add)

I haven't used any of your addresses yet, and as I have stated before, I will not spread any of the private information to anyone.

The e-mail address is needed when/if you want to change anything about your point - nothing else.
I might send you all (addressed individually) a mail once to tell you that you are able to change the info, and probably some reminder about to check/update your info once or twice a year.

email is easy to track to its source, so check your mail headers of the spam's you are blaming (or suspect) me for. Also, spam volume usually varies with weekdays, and time of day, because of the lot of kidnapped windos computers out there.

I get them too, but they are tossed away before they land at my mailbox (for my domain, I filter out about 500 spam messages each week (for only one valid address, all fake addresses are blocked before the mail is scanned).

Redo the first step ("find yourself", http://map.minimig.net/find_pos.php) and follow the instructions about zooming in and dragging the marker, then e-mail me coordinates you wish to use. If you send the email from the address you used for signing up, I will be able to find you, otherwise, it will be a problem..

The initial purpose was to make it a map for minimig owners, but it's now for owners of all systems. To be able to use the map for MiniMig users, I've created a filter, which shows only MiniMig owners, SAM owners or resellers.
