# maps that tell the truth...
instead of going once place... it goes another...
erm... give an example of not changing the text?
talking maps are out of the question as are shatnavs... any form of text is out - what do you suggest? this is poorly thought out

or the globe, or the amusement park layout, or the shopping centre, or way to San Jose, or, etc etc

# Ok, but enough about your posts
other people would do some awesome stuff ;)

In all seriousness, such a result can be applied to almost every challenge, yours for example will be a 3000 pictures of the same robot fighting the same dinosaur. See.
What the image challenge needs is a massive disclaimer telling people they don't have to enter if they can't think of anything actually worth doing

# i have only done two toaps as far as i can remember...

# Seriously?
When did we do this before?

Last week's challenge was last week's most popular suggestion, so yep, the suggestion board is taken into account. It might not be a majority choice but it was the most popular minority choice (if that makes sense), by some distance.

# It's amazing, anyone would think this site is here for something other than fun.
I'm getting really fed up of how seriously some folks are taking it.

I think it's an interesting challenge, for what it's worth, but even that isn't really important. The key point is, I'm sure it'll provide a few, uh, 'lolz'. And that's what b3ta's for, innit?
