Ichi's, Bishop's and Parsifal's comments all prove that they have nothing constructive to add.
Correct me if I'm right but isn't low content posting discouraged? Why do these guys get away with it?
Berny up to his usual quality posting. The lack of FE'ers indicates that they can't answer this question.

Its the small things in life that make you happy.

Well sometimes you try and address a problem - or two - and you get
Neither. Water is not checkered.
I have linked a better map - the other two maps were created by a java script program that allows for multiple projections
http://www.btinternet.com/~se16/js/mapproj.htm and here is a wikimap Southpolar projection
with much more detail. A further scaled map at

The first point I was trying to make was - Most of us are too used to seeing maps only in North as Up or center viewpoints. In fact the first Earth the Blue Marble photo the photo was taken with the South Pole as the top. Almost nobody ever sees that.
Second point - regardless of Ichi's complaining about how the Great Lakes look - because they are horribly distorted in a South Polar Azimuthal projection - this gives us a more realistic look at the southern Continents. For some one who would be living in New Zealand - why should he care if a map has the Great Lakes all stretched out? At least this flat map actually shows his country.
The only FEish member to actually come up with anything at all has been Parsifal, and although his idea is really an absurd thought - it is the only one that is actually thought outside of a box - because FE will not work with the current realistic travelling that occurs on a daily basis without some major revamping of what an FE would actually be.
So it is not so much
VICTORY FOR THE ROUND EARTH
As failure for FE to provide practical examples that are actually applicable in real world situations.
