What's the minimum size for a lake to show up on this map?

You just had to put an UFO where I live. Now its as if I'm going to be required to RP aliens raiding everyone in the local area and probe the survivors; Its piratically destiny now.
Keep calm and stay peachy.

Is the map simply going to be presented as-is or will we at some point be able to pull it up in-game and see our location on it? It would be pretty nice to have it be interactive so that it automatically marks towns and stuff when you discover them in game. Or is that going to be too casual?

So the Sundial is screwed up. You have 2 eleven's on it. Is that the clue?

So this is supposed to be a treasure hunt to find Tarp or not?

What clue is supposed to be at the Sundial? Did someone already take it?

Do we just follow the way the shadow is pointing?

Well it makes no sense. The shadow points back towards Limetown to the North almost directly. I followed it for 20 minutes or so but saw nothing. There's no other clue around the place.

The Sundial is pointed the wrong way also. Noon should be to the North, not the NE.

Maybe the pointer is telling you to follow the real 11 hour direction.
