    Are you enjoying the Scavenger Hunt? Hell before our Twitter convo the other night I was stuck talking to Rach (Ravynlee) and she was the only person I talk to from LPF nowadays. So glad to see an old face around!!

    Cool map for sure...just have to note though. Not that it's a big deal or anything but I always kinda smile and shake my head when I just see Toronto, Canada...Canada is huge lol it's divided by provinces for a reason...clue 4 says Chicago, IL, USA....but it's just Toronto, Canada instead of Toronto, ON (Ontario) Canada...again this is just more an observation not a complaint...

    I've been to concerts (LP hasn't done this though, they say Toronto) where a band will just say "HELLO CANADA!" to warm up the crowd between songs...imagine a Canadian band touring in the USA and going to a show just saying "Hello America".....he'd hear crickets....I'd totally do that if I was in a band lol

    Ahh, I should've seen this coming. And yes, I should have Toronto, ON, Canada there, but I actually did it more for aesthetic reasons than practical ones.

    In the same way that Toronto, Canada isn't the proper way of writing the name, neither is Sydney, Australia (it should be Sydney, NSW, Australia). But both of these are already fairly long names, whereas Chicago, USA is not (especially compared to Lincoln Park Zoo). Because it was so small, the red subtext looked awkwardly small and the white text awkwardly big. "Chicago, Illinois" would have been better, but I wanted to have country names and Chicago, Illinois, USA is too long again; similarly, I couldn't use Chicago, United States (technically, the USA isn't the only United States of ______ in the world) and Chicago, America was even worse. I settled on Chicago, IL, USA because it gave the subtext a little extra length.

    I'll go back and see what adding the "ON" does to Canada's label, but no promises if it's unfeasible.

    No no lol dude it's ok! That's why I tried to point out that it wasn't a complaint. If I'm not mistaken even the original or the "first" (Derek's?) map just said Toronto, Canada. It's just something I see a lot so I commented on it, you totally don't have to go and change the map lol, it's not like it bothers me.

    You're welcome, guys. Glad you liked the article. It's not every day you get to guest-write for Mike's blog so we tried to make it as good as can be. If it wasn't for the people on our Forums we wouldn't have been given this opportunity, so it's all thanks to the LPA members. :)

    Also, I'm starting to get a little worried about Chicago. :lol:
