I actually considered doing that before, but with the characters arrival points in our world. Never thought of doing it with the echoes... that could be a good idea. :D

I'm gonna laugh if it's pointing exactly at the Cabal's location... and then the Player locations would spell out "idiots"

Umm, I was looking at the map and I don't think the Wicked Witch was on it. If I recall correctly she is in Dodge City, Kansas.

That's where she arrived. She was in NY last we heard.

In her blog post "Rain" (October 19th) she says:
Shortly after I got back to Kansas there was a storm here.

No, looks like she headed back to Kansas. She seems to have a base of sorts there.

It would have been bad for the plot but rather entertaining.

Do we need to keep discovered Echoes on the map? I'm not sure if they are still important. (Unless their locations contain another clue, of course.)

I don't think there's a reason to delete them. Maybe we should change the color of the ones that have been found, though.

I'll change the icon to one without the dot, to denote found ones.

Has anybody tried connecting the dots on the echoes or anything so far?

Shame we can't adjust the map to show only the echoes, or only the tropers... Unless we CAN and I just haven't worked out how yet.

I think the problem here is that the dots indicating the echoes are overlapped by both the dots from tropers and characters. If we can make the echo dots the top layer, then we will more easily be able to see if they form a pattern. And even if not, this would at least clear the map up a bit.
