wikipedia wrote:The Lake Bodom murders were an infamous multiple homicide that took place in Finland in 1960. Lake Bodom is a small lake in Espoo, about 22 kilometres west of the country's capital, Helsinki. On the night of June 4, 1960, four teenagers were camping on the shores of Lake Bodom when – allegedly – an insane person murdered three of them cold-bloodedly with a knife and wounded the fourth. The sole survivor Nils Gustafsson has lived a relatively normal life afterwards until 2004 when he was arrested for the murders by the police. In October 2005 a district court found Gustafsson not guilty.

The murders have proven to be a popular subject in the Finnish media and commonly have made it back to the headlines whenever new information or theories have surfaced

correct? and emmm... chouldn't your location be California instead of Califorina

Children of Bodom is a band from Espoo, Finland. There is some contention regarding the band's genre classification, but, in general, the band's musical style can be described as a hybrid of Power metal, Melodic death metal and Melodic black metal.




No but a huge fan of Children of bodom from Finland, which there name was based off that lake, and the murders.

This competition im gonna enter altho im almost 100% im gonna fail at it....anyways heres my very very very WIP map and when im done with it it should look somewhat like a dam...the lake will be on one side of the dam and thats olso where i think ill put the player spawns

http://img435.imageshack.us/img435/1509 ... 0007no.jpg - The lake side will olso most likely become the player spawn

http://img435.imageshack.us/img435/338/dedam00015ej.jpg - Other side of the dam...there is suppose to be water covering the whole bottom but it randomy disapears so i couldnt get a good shot of it

Anyways if this doesnt count as a lake then any mod is welcome to delete this message and tell me that it doesnt count as a lake
Sig goes here.

Anyway, nice way to look at environmental destruction I must say.


it was.. but there are underground rivers.. so i'll acept his map.
(neverthless you could try adding a outdoor part)

The-fox:

Don't forget that the lake must be the center piece of the map.. for what i see now the dam is taking that place. I can't really say if i can acept it or not now, it all depends on what you do next with the map, like adding the water etc.

As a side note, do lakes have dams? i tought they where only used on rivers :?
I've no sign

So, a lake appears when the dam is closed and it magically turns into a river when the dam is opened :D
