I'm working on my additions. I should be done in half an hour or so. I've been to a lot of places out west.

Edit: I've been to every county in CA and NV. I've only been to some of the counties in NV just so I could say that I had been (Mineral, Esmeralda, and Lincoln).

How does one access the map template for this?

Click on Beet's map and make sure that you download the full resolution one (it's like 4000x3000) and then copy/paste it into MS Paint.

Yeah, I don't get the color scheme at all. Are the 4 levels travel, stop, stay over night, and live, and a county only gets darker when a poster has had a higher level of nexus to the county than the existing color on the map?
that's what I'm gonna assume the 4 tiers mean. think the darker shades mean multiple Atlas members.

It seems to me to be a level of nexus issue. For example, I have lived in LA County, Cook County, Washtenaw County, MI, Orange County, CA, and Columbia County, NY. I assume I would color all those counties the darkest color since I have lived in those counties. The number of posters at a given level of nexus would not be relevant. The generator of the OP can explain further if I have it wrong.

I don't want to speak for the OP, but here's the way I interpreted it. There is a 2x4 matrix of choices. Each row corresponds to a different status level, such as lived in, or traveled through. The columns represent whether there was a single response or multiple responses at that status level. One member at a higher status level takes precedence over multiple members at a lower status level. Then again, I could have it all wrong.

That's my interpretation as well.

What is holding me back is figuring out all the counties that the highways I have traveled go through. Ouch!
indeed

Bing maps is actually good for this! They have the counties when you zoom in relatively close.
