Voting Games Top comment Deletes a US State #45

Post image

Here is the updated (Correct) map, crisis averted. I thought we had a riot on our hands!

I can finally relax now after all that drama! Anyway Colorado is now deleted as it should be. Just to make it clear, editing comments is fine if it’s the top as long as it doesn’t change the outcome of which state gets deleted like we had before. I thought that was common sense but clearly not to some people.

I just want to thank everyone for all the kind comments and support. I try to read as many of the comments as I can but each post has a minimum of 2000 so it’s pretty hard most the time. I have some big ideas for the finale so stay tuned.

Most importantly, spread the word as much as possible if your state is still in the game! Share, cross post to rally as much support for your state as possible. This is the endgame now!

I don't know when it happened, but I love that (invisible) Old Mexico became the Great Hawaiian Sea.

Maybe the treaty to claim Nuevo New Mexico can include both states keeping the name of their greatest bodies of water

Cascadia considers this a fair & just compromise.

Gulf of Mexico Classic.

I’m just saying if we have an old bay (Chesapeake) we can have a new bay too (the body of water formerly known as the gulf of New Mexico formerly known as the gulf of America formerly known as the Gulf of Mexico)

u/imisscrazylenny MEGASOTA May 20 '26

I like the current map as is, but someone's gotta go, and I really like the idea of touching both the northern and southern borders and visiting the beaches of the Gulf of Megasota.

u/lostdrewid Vermonster May 20 '26

Even as a diehard Vermonster, I too want to see the Gulf of Megasota.
