I'd say, toward the finish You really excel this game, Boatnerd! I can see an other wonderful island is unfolding!

I saw it on random visit today (with one more Quarrister), so now you have at least 1 "like" 8D
This is a really good-looking Earth Island, tile work is excellent!

Florida i just checked and you have the honor of giving me the first like for that island. Thanks.

I am honored to be the first but I am sure there will be lots more :)

Darn! I must've gone through 100 islands and didn't see this one at all - in fact, it seemed to me I saw a couple of islands (I was on "Random") more than once - is that possible? Maybe they are just clones.

Nobody really knows how the 'random' visiting works. However it is very common for you to see the same island (not a clone) several times whilst browsing. And what I see is not the same as what you see. What you see tomorrow will be different too (although you still may see some of the same islands). Time of day may affect what you see too. It is all buried in some programmer's arcane code

LOL - it sounds....random! That's easy to program (I used to be a programmer). I'd love to see the code, though, because it seems like there are so many islands out there in BF-land that seeing duplicates wouldn't be so likely. Unless they are using some sort of random seed then a fixed sequence based on that (every nth island starting with a random one).
