Game: How well do you know the world? Can you crack 10,000?

[rudeguy]

didn't finish

When my first 2 guesses weren't even on the right continent, I gave up.

Oh and the worst one I had was on a cruise ship. Top deck only, couldn't move and it was in the middle of hte ocean.
I guessed jsut off the coast of Florida and it was in the southern Caribbean. What a joke that was.

This was posted about a year ago. I had a lot of fun playing it against students in class in the last few minutes of the period when everything else for the day was done. 🙂

How the fuck do you people get such high scores????

I chose China it was Taiwan. I chose Mexico it was Spain. I chose Yugoslavia it was Uzbekistan. I can't fucking win!

7339 on the first try with 100% guessing.

Got 21,034 on the second try by "cheating" (Googling visible phone numbers, names, etc.)

 

[clamum]

Doesn't work on Internet Explorer 10 (at least for me; work browser). 🙁

 

[Possessed Freak]

It is fun to do when you add restrictions... # of clicks allowed. No clicks at all. Etc.

14, 786. The second one I saw had a board with a sign for Clearwater Junction Montana, so I was able to get it within 80 miles.

CRAZY: In the UK, it refuses to work and says ...




As I know nothing about computers, I can't supply a link that works in the UK.

I have NO idea how to defeat it in the UK, so this link does NOT exist (Joke)

Try the link that is in this thread. Usually the BBC is pretty on the ball, not sure why they are acting like this is something new and not a direct copy of http://www.geoguessr.com/ only made smaller and spammed with links all over the page.

My job refuses to update IE so I can't play 🙁

 

[ultimatebob]

I scored around 9,000. I did pretty good until I got some beach area that looked like Hawaii, but turned out to be Australia 🙁

 

[Gunslinger08]

21,030

I got some incredibly easy ones with road signs that I Googled. Two of those were on islands that were 500 feet across and another was a small Mexican town. The two that I got lower scores on were Yosemite (I knew it was Yosemite, but Yosemite is pretty big) and a random corn field (I picked Nebraska, but it was Canada).

 

[child of wonder]

21,340 with the help of Google. lol

Breaking 10K is easy without even moving the camera. 20K is what I'm trying to do. Before I realized you could move the camera this was crazy hard. I had one looking out over a bridge into a giant lake. Without moving the camera that's impossible.

 

[AViking]

Ok 20K is not happening without cheating. Not a chance lol

 

[zinfamous]

11,167 on first try.

3/5 were in Canada, and looked too familiar to US--I only guessed one of those in Canada, but got the wrong border area (other side of the Frenchie state).

closest I got was one location in Norway--I was 200km away from location. It looked like anywhere on the pacific coast, but the signage was all: Flrskitittr and crazy talk like that, so I figured it had to be in Scandinavia.
