Ultimate Landmark Wars!!

Trollheart · 06-12-2015, 09:55 AM

I still kind of like the idea of a man-made landmark possibly trumping a natural one. There are some amazing examples; apart from the ones I gave, you have the Statue of Liberty, Big Ben, The Brandenburg Gate, La Sagrada Familia, Stonehenge as mentioned (or was that built by aliens?) and The Sphinx to mention but a few. I'd like to see how they do against this guy God and what he can do. Might be fun.

Alternatively, if that doesn't suit, we could run a turn-on/turn-off thing, with one turn being man-made versus man-made, the next being natural vs natural and so on?

But I'm still for taking the Big Guy on, to be honest...

I'd prefer allowing both to be accepted.

You could just retire something if it wins 5x in a row or something.

^ All the best ideas are simple, and that's a great way way to break the Grand Canyon monopoly. Could we just add that to the rulebook ?

^ Actually, current archaeological thinking suggests that it was built by a consortium of the KKK and Flat Earthers, headed up by Voltaire.

Not a bad idea. I'll think about that one. Then later on when we're really bored we can have a Champions' League Playoff sort of thing...

A litle offtopic yes, but it's an interesting idea. So this is where I've been going wrong with all those software programs that keep crashing! I haven't been loving them enough! Remember this when your car breaks down and do NOT do this

I knew that French guy would be involved somehow!

And no wonder the damn things are white!

So, assuming I'm up next, what do I do? Do I just post an image or what?

Copy Troll's Canyon pic from the OP and then post a pic of your choice.

**Janszoon** · 06-13-2015, 03:38 PM

Alright, here goes:

Grand Canyon

vs.

Victoria Falls

Trollheart · 06-13-2015, 05:10 PM

Just for the record, until the GC is beaten you don't have to keep copying the picture. You can just put up yours and say "Grand Canyon" vs.

I'm going with the Falls: that is epic!

Falls - 1
Canyon - 0
