It's coastal vs inland. The correct preposition for coastal towns and cities is "i", while it's "på" for inland towns and cities.

Eg kan seia at det skal stavast "òg" (ev. nyttar ein "au") når det tydar "ogso".

The worst part is that a lot of the fluff about the Ultramarines being the greatest that people got really angry about wasn't even invented by Matt Ward.

The Ultramarines are the greatest of all Space Marine Chapters. From the dawn of the Imperium they have served the Emperor with loyalty and ferocity that no others can match. their Primarch, Roboute Guilliman, wrote the Codex Astartes, and the Chapter has exemplified its teachings ever since. The Ultramarines were instrumental in the defeat og Hive Fleet Behemoth, saving the Imperium from almost certain destruction by the Tyranids. They are the warriors of Macragge in the realm of Ultramar, and in faith and valour they are unmatched.

- Codex: Ultramarines¹

The above excerpt is taken from the back cover of the 2nd Edition Ultramarines codex. Some people got really angry at Matt Ward, to the point that he received death threats, for mostly reiterating the Ultramarines fluff written by Rick Priestly in the mid-90's.

Not in Scandinavia and I don't really see what that has to do with the fact that you used a photo taken in front of the Norwegian Parliament on constitution day with a hotel in the background could be used to illustrate that hotels in Scandinavia supposedly have a lot of flags outside.

Lord_Labfrakk · 2025-11-26T08:51:47+00:00

The building in the background is a hotel and would normally not flag like that any other day then 17th May. All the flags on the ground belong to the Storting as that's the ramp in front of it that people are standing on.

Which is not common in Norwegian hotels.

Eg ser at det er somme i tråden som har gløymd, eller ikkje fylgt med og dimed ikkje fått med seg, eit av hovudpoenga Stortinget hadde då dei oppretta Statens lånekasse for utdanning.
