Hang on... have they moved the Severn Bridge to Brazil?
12512!! Day ruined, no work today!
10197
11332 first go. One guess at Florida was only 50km out!
I'm really not very good at this game. I can't tell the difference between Canada and Australia.
8646 1st go
7221 2nd go
.......must leave internet
7409 🙂
closest was 30km in florida
10937
No googling, no moving. Did spin around on the spot though.
Surely googling is cheating.
Surely googling is cheating.
Damn straight 😀
10782 helps when they plonk the visitor centre at the Eden Project in front of you!!
i've now got over 11,500 a couple of times without googling but it did require a fair bit of deduction and spinning on the spot.
Also who knew there were bits of Poland that look like the south of france!
11997 no googling here.
New Zealand, somewhere in the Netherlands, couple in the US and one in Canada ( trees as far as you could see and a dead straight dirt road.... )
I may have been playing this a little too much...
Now getting the same pictures repeated 🙁 must be a limited data set of pictures - I was hoping that it would just go on for ever....
Shame about the limited pictures.
It would be great if it just gave 100% random shots. Initial shots wouldn't look as good but loads more depth to the play.
7723 points 1st go
10932 points 2nd go
1st go, no google - 9145

2nd go, with google (makes it far too easy) - 15832

Good way to waste an afternoon at work!
Some are dead giveaways with google, some are most definitely not.
no google or scrolling all done with first initial screen shot i got 12656. happy with that so back to work.
I should be working but
15854 with some serious Googling. I feel a bit sad now.
11887 with no Googling. All answers in the right country 🙂
Did help that one location included the Golden Gate Bridge!
I've been getting the country bang on almost all the time - I even got Korea - but I seem unable to distinguish between Australia and South Africa often.
If the picture is devoid of signage I'm getting a few muddled up between scandinavia and canada. The middle of nowhere, Australia and the middle of nowhere America look very similar too.
I did have a right comic one where it plonked me next to a sign that said welcome to 'someplaceorother' Alaska's first city.
15835
Abused Google, but I was kicking myself at 0.006km away in the end
Game finished!
You got 10900 points in total.
1st in Australia (Western Australia)
2nd in South America (I chose Chile instead of Brazil)
3rd in Europe (Greece)
4th USA (Alaska)
a few thousand Km out on a couple but I didn't get the wrong continent!
Trying to play from..not moving and only guessing on where you have been plopped:
Speed game if you like.
That's a great game. My first go was 7633.
14999 with no Googling. Two really lucky guesses with the Australian Outback and the middle of New Mexico. Flippin' addictive!
12832 first go, with no googling*
Bang goes that early night.
*or other "...ing"
15370 on my third game 8)
No Googling
Bah!
Curse beginners' luck.
What I was convinced was the Stirling Ranges in Western Australia turns out to be somewhere on the US/Mexico border.
22278 google is your friend. But next go dumped in a woods and missed by 15000km! Wrong type of tree.
Got a lorry with a web address on that shortened the odds on one.
"Looks like things are going to kick off...time to get out of here!"

Anyone figure out where this is?
Hmm.. well it's a university lecture theatre.. and the google streetview indoors has only been rolled out to a few places.. I seem to remember reading it's MIT or Harvard or something isn't it?
thats an hour of work gone out the window - 4886 to 14684 on 3rd go, Japan, Canada and Bulgaria all a bit easy but the clincher was slap bang next to the Kennedy Space Centre!
