Okay, so I
saw this game on TechTV. All you have to do is click a part of
the map, then you have conquered an area for Something Awful!
You get more points for conquering whole countries. The reason
I wanted to point this out is because it might be on TechTV
again, which would bring mad popularity to SA. The map is for
your viewing pleasure below.

Admin... guy.

::What has science
done!::

Here's the
link, HTML included:

Click
away, folks.
Don't be shy. It may take a second to load
because apparently this image is dynamically generated with
each colored square indicating a "plot of land" that has been
claimed by one website or another.

Edit:
The whole
point is to "take over" as much of that world map as possible
by clicking the colored squares. Each click you make assignes
the site that referred you as the current owner. The site that
owns the most land gets mentioned on TechTV. ...or so I've
been told.
--
Tips:

It appears that forums.somethingawful.com shows up as
Teal

You don't have to wait all 30 seconds or whatever for
the results page to load. However, the app does do some
detection to make sure you aren't clicking too fast or using
a script.

Just say no to scripts.

The (drunken) gents at drunkmenworkhere.org were kind
enough to lift the ban on SA, as long as you folks play
nice. That means no scripts, no joke.

I don't
understand.

edit: I don't have the patience to do
this, but if someone writes a script, I'll run it.

it.

I think we
should decide on a particular region for everyone to go for.
We might actually get somewhere.

if we take that giant chunk of Russia from pink then that'd
bring us to at least 500.

PROTIP:

Don't close the referer risk window,
becuase you can keep clicking here and it'll change that one
everytime. You don't have to wait for it to load.
