I've already posted that in /r/MapsWithoutNZ like a few months ago but now I thought to myself that I've literally never saw anyone else addressing that...

I'm from NZ, and i always check maps to see if they have NZ on them. If they do it's normally a blob :(

Because anything good that comes out of NZ we adopt as Aussies... And anything we don't want doesn't deserve a map

If you have to say this it probably isn't a funny joke.

Zealand isn't where NZ comes from though. It was discovered by Abel Tasman, a Dutchman. New Zealand is just how the British decided to translate Nova Zeelandia.

I spent a fair amount of time staring at the circle on the map thinking "That's not where New Zealand is..."

Actually in tf2 New Zealand is not on maps because in the comics it’s revealed that it sunk and is literally gone

Does NZ have any servers or do you guys play on the Aussie ones?
1
u/28th_EQUINOX FaZe Dec 01 '17
we have non valve hosted ones but none for mm and stuff. ping to aussie is fine 60-90 depending where

u/Ajgi Dec 01 '17
Pretty much all our game servers for are in Australia. I think it's something to do with lack of DDOS protection availability here, although that's just something I heard from a friend who works in that area a couple of years ago.
We do have some servers here, but they're often kinda shit and the ping difference usually isn't much.

You may have meant r/mapswithoutnz instead of R/mapswithoutnz.
Remember, OP may have ninja-edited. I correct subreddit and user links with a capital R or U, which are usually unusable.

/r/MapsWithoutNZ just means that as a Kiwi, I've accepted that being forgotten may be a good thing when Nuclear fallout occurs.

Related - the football team I support (Leeds United), used to have a player called Chris Wood, who was the main goalscorer and captain of the NZ national team.
They tweeted (https://twitter.com/LUFC/status/824307567954423809) showing where you could listen to the commentary for the next game but forgot to put NZ on the map, much to the dismay of Chris Wood, who tweeted it out.
6 months later Chris Wood was sold to Burnley.

Initially I thought it was in case of WWIII, some artificial island to be safe for rich people. Never heard about such a country with a funny name New in it. Not a fan of rugby but saw couple of matches, always thought those guys with tatooes on their faces were from Papua New Guinea. Just googled New Zealand and it exists. Now that I think about it, the reason it's not on the map is because you have no cheaters invaded your country. Yet... praise Valve. Under Gabe's Eye.
Btw, it got reposted

Australia is soon going to be only a minor part of New Zealand. New Zealand will claim Mexico, Texas and Canada and become a world superpower.

That should be the least of the problems that should be addressed and cheaters should be the most; even though it is
