I got 13915 points overall - no cheating !

The goal is to work out where you get dropped in a google street view and place a pin in the map on the right to make a guess.

It's trickier than you first think!

[B00]

I tried twice, didnt get ANY right, so give up in a huff :-(

[AB Editor]

I don't think it's about getting it right - it's about getting close :)

[mccfluff]

i got close the first three times then picked NA over sweden.....

[ummmm]

It won't let me guess the location.

[mccfluff]

you put a pin in the map, then press guess

[mccfluff]

11915

[ummmm]

Pin? How?

[mccfluff]

hover over your guess on the map and click

[carrust]

44417:-(

How the heck did you get 8km away from number 2??!

I was pleased with my 9k -- right neck of the woods each time apart from number 5, when I was at least on the right side of the Atlantic...

[ummmm]

Game finished!

You got 9872 points in total.

Everywhere is in Europe!!!

[Robinia]

Have they all got road signs telling you where you are or am I just having a lucky day for spotting clues?
:)

"How the heck did you get 8km away from number 2??!"

Which one was number two?

They look very familiar is the answer though :)

[AB Editor]

*similar!

This is my best "no cheating" round:

Nothing too spectacular on this apart from my lucky guess at number

[jim360]

... at number five. In an earlier game I managed to get within nine metres of the correct location, but most of the time I'm aiming to land on the right continent. Getting better... geoguessr is really addictive!

Whoops, this is the link for challenging:

Ed, I got 17054, didn't move only used rotate and zoom and didn't refer to any outside information sources. My average is a lot lower though.

[AB Editor]

Excellent Jom! You're miles better than me! I think I had to go for a walk on at least some of them.
