Travel protosal, soliciting advice
So… since we have locations, it makes sense we need to change them once in awhile. Rather than wasting wishes each time, there should be some sort of travel mechanic. Anyone have good ideas on how it should go?

The Universe has things like airports and roads in. Maybe we could use those.
I was tempted to suggest any location that is hotlinked from one can be traveled to… but then you really have to be careful about changes in the Wikipedia since reference time.
Magic carpets. Dirigibles. Accelerated continental drift. Bathyscape. The Spruce Goose. Messerschmitt Me 264. Project Habakkuk. Flue network. Professor Von Hardwigg’s passage.
ooh, a six degrees of Wikipedia travel mechanic? It wouldn’t be that hard to look back in the history.
Difficult to see ALL of Wikipedia as of reference time, though
Testing again…

(OK, I’ll stop using this thread now.)
Flying carpets do seem like an obvious choice. Maybe the kind from the myth that only work if you don’t think about pink elephants? Which sounds on the surface like a really interesting idea but i’m buggered if i can think of a way to make it a rule.
I’d like to add http://www.ommatidia.org/2006/01/20/south-dakota/ to spikebrennan’s list.
Possible travel destinations from Cuba using NOI’s idea:
(Not a complete list. Not checked at the reference time.)
China
Democratic Republic of Congo
Guam
The Netherlands
Turkey
Washington D.C.
So, it doesn’t make a lot of sense geographically (or, in the case of DC, legally), but it’s more interesting than geographical travel would be. I’m for it.
Yeah Geographical travel, assuming we limit it to directly provable routs from one wiki page to another, would leave me in trouble, but if I could somehow get to Rockford…
But what about name manipulation. Daily action of changing up to two letters in your location, to a valid new location?
I don’t think that would work very well. Where could you go from “Mornington Crescent tube station”, for instance?
No name manipulation; it’s too difficult to use (given names with different lengths). I would be in favor of link-based usage, but I would also like some ability to do geographical travel. Maybe one is the usual method and the other is a special case?
How do you propose to do geographic travel? Neither of the two systems I came up with are very good. A fixed mileage (or kilometerage) per day makes sense, but information on the distance between two arbitrary points is going to be difficult to come by. “Travel to any neighboring country” is simple enough, but then it takes 6 moves to get from Colombia to Mexico, and 2 from Mexico to Canada.
I like NOI’s idea, even if it limits my destinations to Amundsen Station, Vostok Station and Christchurch, NZ of all places.
OK, how about link-based as a daily and then as a weekly, geographic based to any location within 500 miles of your current?
Ornithopter: Google can tell you distances from anywhere to anywhere pretty easily, iirc. NOI’s last sounds alright.
It can do distance by road, but can it give the distance as the crow flies?
Googling around a bit gave me the Google Maps Distance Calculator (http://www.daftlogic.com/projects-google-maps-distance-calculator.htm).
“Travel to any neighboring country” was used in the First Dynasty of Qwazukee (initially as a way to complete the Step “Go to Wales”, within the “Save the Whales” Good Deed. Good times… good times…)
If you are in the corner and have got no cash to go out from that, you will require to take the loans. Because that should aid you emphatically. I get consolidation loans every single year and feel fine because of it.

Maybe some mechanic involving vehicles? You possess a ship, say, which you can use to travel anywhere on a coast. Something like that.
