If you can't see where you're at on that map, what makes you think you could give someone else your location?

Why do you need to see exactly where you are? Forget the map. The map in this thread is irrelevant to the argument. The coordinate system laying over the map is the only thing that is relative. You can find where you are on another map and use the coordinate system to describe what supergrid you are in. I don't think that is even the w5 map.
Opinions expressed in this statement are the authors alone and in no way reflect on the game development values of the actual developers.

It's not. But you posted in response to my out-dated comment, so I replied in turn.
In short it's best to just use the Algerith map and know your exact coordinates by heart.

The point was that you could use the uploader tool to find out which supergrid you were in, which narrowed down the area you had to search to 1/25th of the map.
You could easily use the information about the supergrid to find your exact coordinates on Algeralith's map.
Doesn't matter now though, as this method currently doesn't work for W5.

Doh! At least we do agree.
