    Post November Entry - Survivor's Map

    Okay, the plan is something like this.

    Take a city map (nice street-map type map) from a city.
    Invent a suitable apocalypse (I will avoid the Zombie-pocalypse options).
    Draw all over the map to detail the changes to the city, in its post-non-Zombiealypse state, also random notes, etc.
    Weather it.
    Distress it.
    Make it look like it is owned by a post-apocalyptic hobo.

    Now... which city...

    Japan (cliched but suitable for any large dinosaur-monster type apocalypse)
    Shanghai (nice city, been there and walked over a lot of the downtown district, great train system)
    Sydney (Domum dolce domum)
    Melbourne (just because I can...)

    Any other cities people think should be destroyed by an apocalypse? I'm kind of willing to take requests here...

    I like the idea! ... I would love to see Godzilla tear apart The Hague ... Maybe crush the Peace Palace?

    Japan is not a city. I assume you mean Tokyo? Might be interesting to do a relatively obscure Japanese city. How about Mexico City? Overrun by time traveling, magically-superpowered Aztecs bent on retaking their empire?

    I've always wanted to see Red Square in Moscow awash in giant creature doo-doo.

    With my level of confidence and self deprecation... a mere thing such as getting zero votes on a challenge you suggested is a non-event!

    Please, first Challenge Suggestions... next US Presidency (although I may have doctor some documents so I am a US citizen... and a few other things) or maybe just go for Mayor of NYC if I'm feeling just a little kind of lazy...

    Yes I was thinking Tokyo, or Osaka.

    Okay, so I think I've decided to destroy Rio de Janeiro.
    Here is my base map.
    Step 1: Remove the watermark
    Step 2: Figure out what destroyed Rio (I'm not going to suggest it was a giant rampant alien thong bikini...)
    Step 3: Figure out where everyone ends up after and what doesn't make it.

    With all of that colossal rump-shakin during Carnivale I'm surprised that some buildings haven't been knocked down yet.
    If the radiance of a thousand suns was to burst at once into the sky, that would be like the splendor of the Mighty One...I am become Death, the Shatterer of worlds.
    -J. Robert Oppenheimer (father of the atom bomb) alluding to The Bhagavad Gita (Chapter 11, Verse 32)

    Post Starship Troopers?

    Doesn't Heinlein's Starship Troopers begin when the bugs sent meteor/comet to strike the Earth at Sao Paulo, Brazil? Rio's not too far.
