Revision as of 20:19, 23 November 2014
MapRaid! NYC has officially commenced on Sunday, 2014-11-09 at 19:00 EST!
We will start by focusing on the five boroughs of NYC. The group will be divided into five teams, one for each borough. Each team will have their own assigned senior editor (rank 6, or 5) who will be able to edit anywhere in the state of NY, but will focus on their assigned borough.
Most of the communication will be in various MapRaid! NY Google Hangout chats.
Mission
Our primary mission will be to handle the URs, and PURs, followed by checking turn angles at intersections, and turn restrictions. Our secondary mission will be to complete the FC Upgrade for the whole NYC, it's already about 60% complete.

MapRaid Promotions
Some editors really let their bright side out, and let their community skills shine. This is even more evident in a concerted group effort with high density editing like a MapRaid!. Editors of all ranks working closely with each other and the champs, really lets us everyone get to know each other, and allows certain editors to be recognized for their skills and effort.
When the champs see someone consistently editing well, interacting well with the community, and knowledgeable of the various details from the wiki, they can issue promotions. This can be anything from the size of a managed area, to a rank increase, or even a new role.
Without further ado, all the participants in MapRaid! NYC would like to congratulate the following editors on their promotions:
- Davielde to Country Manager
- SkiDooGuy to State Manager
- MojaveCactusMonkey to Rank 5
- Thortok2000 to Rank 4
Congratulations, job well done. Keep up the great work!
