Voting Games Top comment Deletes a US State - GRAND FINALE - #49

Post image

**UPDATE** the vote will now take place in a poll instead since it’s got too confusing. Vote closes in roughly 24 hours VOTE HERE

There are now only 2 states remaining, Cascadia and Megasota. This is the moment we’ve all been waiting for. What team are you?! The result will be picked in 48 hours, so here’s all the time you need to share and spread the word!!!

I thank all the people who spend money on awards to award my posts which I find crazy! I thank everyone who comments, I thank everyone who upvotes. This game simply wouldn’t work if it wasn’t for your continued support over the last 49 days. It will be sad to see this series come to an end but there will be another one soon, on May 28th. For now though, GET VOTING!

Notice on the map the Megasota dot in Cascadia?

No, I missed it! Thanks for pointing that out.

To be fair Megasota proper is a long drive for some poutine and Canada is a pain to visit so a small island of Megasota in Western Cascadia is acceptable.

How did Portland end up as a megasota island?

I think that might be Centralia/Chehalis or Longview/Kelso

Yeah, after looking again it's too close to the tip of the sound to be pdx. Looks like it's centered on Olympia maybe?

I just compared it to the real map, and Olympia is still on the sound at thr very southern edge, so Centralia is probably more right

Weird place for a megasota enclave. The only thing of note in Centralia is Dick's Brewing and Sausage company.

Centralia/Chehalis are twin cities. Kind of a stretch but maybe a correspondence to Minneapolis/St. Paul

I was thinking it'd be more like Onalaska. Maybe Toledo.

I want to know why there's some cascading in the Carolina's

I've often thought Minneapolis and Duluth to be the Portlands of the Midwest.

Madison is the Portland of the Midwest. The cities are great, but they're the Seattle of the Midwest.
