Our new Indie Games subforum is now open for business in G&T. Go and check it out, you might land a code for a free game. If you're developing an indie game and want to post about it,
follow these directions. If you don't, he'll break your legs! Hahaha! Seriously though.
Our rules have been updated and given
their own forum. Go and look at them! They are nice, and there may be new ones that you didn't know about! Hooray for rules! Hooray for The System! Hooray for Conforming!

Santiago looks a lot like my hometown of Salt Lake City.

Oh and sorry for the image raping - I had thought that the NSF56k label meant it was ok to paste larger images
It's not ugly it's just empty.... and flat. Really really flat.
Oh then there's the badlands which actually have some pretty cool views but for the vast majority of the state, yeah, we got nothin'.
Where in North Dakota are you from? I didn't realize that they gave you guys internet already.
I visited some friends who go to North Dakota State University in Fargo, ND. Fargo's a pretty nice town, but everything outside of it is horribly desolate.

Cabot Tower on Signal Hill, St. John's:
This is the view directly across from my unit, of surf beach
And next door is bombo beach, a bit bigger and ironically a better hang out for surfers
And the main street
they don't do that up here.
They have plenty of that around here.
It makes running around in the sand kind of hazardous though. D:

The only problem with having such dramatic scenery is that its built partially on a fault line. My old house was perched happily above this fault line, so I was always slightly worried what would happen if the big one hit.
Sorry.
Because 9% think it's too high, and shouldn't be cut! 9% of respondents could not fully
get their arms around the question. There should be another box you can check for, "I
have utterly no idea what you're talking about. Please, God, don't ask for my input."
Yeah I hate you long time.
Although if it makes you feel better/worse I've found that most people outside of Australia/NZ can't tell the difference between our two accents unless they've either been our way or know people from both countries. Surprised me a bit at first but hey, we are isolated as fuck right?
Problem 2: A lot of the foreshore area has only been there since a fairly recent earthquake (happened when there were already settlers there, I think) so it is largely sand, which means liquefaction in a quake.

You drive up the west coast, starting in Gros Morne which is really scenic and nice, and then it just gradually gets more barren as you go north. The trees grow out at a 45 degree angle from the coast and are very small, and rocky little fishing villages are everywhere. I've not been back there in two years, but I look forward to this fall when I get a chance to go up there again... should be really fun. Last year, maybe a year and a half ago, my uncle's house literally fell into the ocean so it will be strange going there as it has been there my entire life.
That's in Glacier National Park, about a two mile hike back through the most ridiculously beautiful wilderness ever. We drove up to the top of the park road, hiked up even further, and went snowboarding. In August.
edit: Pics or it didn't happen:
Isn't that where Way of the Fist shot one of their episodes? Does it have a blowhole?
And here am I hating it. Never lived there, but whenever I need to visit it's just... Yuck. Srry I'll stop bringing the thread down now.
Yeah theres a blowhole here, its a pretty big tourist (asian) attractor so i guess its possible.
Holy shit.
Yeah it's pretty great. I live halfway between Glacier and Yellowstone, so you could do a lot worse for landscape. Glacier is just amazingly beautiful and terrifying, where Yellowstone is just out and out weird.
Here's a shot looking down from Signal Hill.
AJ: Funny you mention the guy from Labrador... I went to high school with him, and we were really good friends back in the day. He wasn't always quite that, ummm... difficult.
Eh, I'm lazy and without a host. Just GIS "North Dakota Badlands".
Speaking as someone who grew up and lives in Fargo (on the far eastern border of the state) and hasn't traveled past Bismark (in the center) much, seeing the Badlands (on the far western side ofthe state) for the first time was almost surreal. The rest of the state is basically a flat tabletop but the Badlands actually have like, landscape and shit.
