[GAME] Name that Picture! - Canada Edition

Here's a neat game we can play: (adapted from a game I saw on Recommendation Club)

Post a picture of something Canadian and we can all guess who, what, or where it is!

The rules of the game is that every poster can choose a picture related to Canada and set the difficulty of the picture. You cannot change the difficulty of the picture once you have set it.

To name a few things you can post:

  • A national park
  • A shopping mall ('cause that's where we all hang out right? XD)
  • A regional landmark
  • A skyline
  • A road/walkway
  • Canadian food!
  • Canadian person/figure/celebrity
  • A Canadian brand


Basically post any picture that has something to do with Canada!

Objective is: Be the first to reach 200 points!

We're going to have a scoring system (though the prize for now is bragging rights, if you have a neat idea for a prize, tell meeee!):
1. Easy (5 pts)
2. Medium (10 pts)
3. Hard (15 pts)

You can give out extra clues if you feel that people are not getting it (like 5-7 wrong answers) but with each extra clue, there is a deduction of 2 points (so for a hard question, if you give out 2 extra clues, then the question is only worth 11 pts). If a question's value reaches to 0 points, then the question maker should give out the answer and make a new question.

There is no penalty for incorrect guesses and a user can guess as many times as he/she wants. I do ask to please allow the question maker to confirm your answer before posting your own next guess.

I do ask that once a user gets a question right, the asker should update the leaderboard to let everyone know.

Here's the format of the question:

(difficulty)


(question)


(image)


Here's an example:

Person 1:

Easy

Name this landmark:



Person 2:

Parliament Hill?

Person 1:
Nope

Person 3:

CN Tower?

Person 1:

Yes!

Leaderboard:
Person 3: 5 pts

-------

And Person 3 takes over for the next riddle.

Although I can't control it, please don't right-click the image and look at the URL. To avoid it, I advise question makers to post it to Imgur/photobucket or some other image sharing website to mask the actual URL.


Have funnnnnnnn!!!!

Let me start things off.

Only one guess/post and after the question maker (in this case, me) confirms it, you can ask again!

It's a fort alright! Can you name it??

By the way, you can use Google or Bing to look it up! The rules only state that you can't follow the picture link. :P

That's alright! Since no one else has made a guess, let me give another hint:

1. This valley is located in BC.
2. This valley is very famous for its fruits (and possibly vegetables as well).
