Google+

 * The Mapping Community (Google+) was known to be the largest Google+ group regarding Mapping. However due to increasing amounts of tension and drama and the inactivity of the leader leading to the group being effectively defunct, the TMC was formally closed by the administration. The TMC transitioned over to the new community, The Mapping Union and kept the same administration but demoting the past leader, Super LV. The move to the new community also implemented new rules

Google+

 * The Mapping Community (Google+) is permanently deleted after successfully transitioning over to The Mapping Union.

Google+

 * On October 25th, 2017, someone banned mods and members from The Mappers Union and changed the logo to a gif of Jake Paul dabbing. Only one of the mods had the power to do this, this has resulted in Platine and Northern having trials for suspected mods that did this. They also fired some mods without a chance to defend themselves. Platine and Northern also placed restrictions on the community; they became more strict about members who could enter and what you could post on the community. Platine and Northern also thought about placing an age restriction on the community and only letting mappers join, which will be put up to a vote in the near future.

Outside the Wiki

 * Nationstates Z-day 2017:
 * Day 1: The event started off with an outbreak of infection within the region of Mapperdonia. Several nations attempted to find a cure in early hours but failed to totally stop the plague from reaching their nations. Several puppet nations were recreated to join the region. Later on, a small team (with Brabrantium and Harinia as major players) was made to help 'Team Cure' and had launched several campaigns to purge all infected from major nations. By the end of the night, most major nations whos population is past 2 billion were all saved from infection. Batran99 later created a blog to help with the situation.

Events & Holidays

 * Halloween 2017
 * changes his avatar to the "Doot doot" skull and trumpet for Halloween. He also plans to upload a special video for the holiday later in the day.

Google+

 * Guild of Mappers
 * The popular Google + community Guild of Mappers is raided. All moderators bar the owner - Imperie - were kicked and the banner filters and all posts were deleted. CJets quickly created a new GOM Community. It is still unknown who raided it, but many suspect it to have been Imperie himself, although unconfirmed.

Outside the wiki

 * Nationstates Z-day 2017:
 * Day 2: Early in the morning, a couple nations decided to give in to the horde and killed off most of the regional population by the time some others took notice. Several other nations were kicked afterwards for the reason of the blog (and several other agreements over discord) made by Batran99 warning that other nations who have gone rogue may be kicked. By the end of the day, the entire region was infected. Batran99 made a statement, saying that this would be "the first nonvictory we have."
