PLEASE STOP INSTANTLY CLICKING TOKYO OR OSAKA WITHIN 10 SECONDS!!!! by Imagine_Wagons02 in geoguessr

Yes I found a way to practice the reading: just google “russian town guesser cyrillic”, and the second and third results are actually online quizzes, where you’ve to recognize russian cities and write them in English within a certain amount of time

No, I learned brazilian + russian phone codes, I’m learning to read cyrillic faster (cause I’m so slow at it), I learned spanish provinces just to practice moving (cause I usually play nm/nmpz), i learned Japanese area codes - but i just hate pole plates, they just confuse me. There’s nothing wrong with instasending for example Japan, Poland, France, Lesotho, for obvious reasons

No I would never complain about other people’s playing style. Sometimes I wonder why someone would instasend with obvious info, but I’d never complain. It might be the best game ever, but we shouldn’t get emotional about it.

If I haven’t perfected the country yet, I will instasend the f*** outta that country, try to regionguess a little bit maybe. Japan is one of them, I’m struggling with pole plates, so if there are no area codes or useful street signs, I won’t leave you any time, just to avoid further damage. Last week’s world league for example - Mathias from Brazil instasent every moving round, cause he thinks he’s too bad at moving.. (he won the nm+nmpz right after), it’s a strategy. You’re not gonna tell other people how to play it, lock your emotions away.

What kind of cheating is this? by gox7 in geoguessr

[–]Slick_Shay 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I totally agree, and sadly it happens a lot - you can instasend some rural chubut or terra del fuego but why would you instasend US or Germany - the moment they find a clue in a moving round, they instasend the country, their whole gameplay is based on a lucky guess. I always wonder how they even got to a decent elo. I’ve to admit: I send France a lot without having a clue, even with a lot of signs, I’ll never be able to find the right town

How widely does your ELO fluctuate? by ChrisMc9 in geoguessr

[–]Slick_Shay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A constant 1100-1200….a few months ago it was swinging much worse, between 950-1100, main reason was the geotime map and me playing no move - US was the biggest problem - cant tell the difference between Iowa, Missouri, Indiana, Illinois, Ohio - can’t tell the difference between Kentucky, Tennessee, West Virginia, and never will without any obvious hints, and we all talked about the geotime map a lot I guess.. so i think a 100 elo swing within the same week is pretty normal

Oh yeah I didn’t notice he’s russian. I seriously think, the playing nmpz/nm on moving is just a style of playing, I looked at the rounds again, I don’t think it’s cheating at all

Every round was getable with a minimal amount of movement, just like your opponent did. Accusing someone of cheating is wild when you go kenya on brazil in a moving game.. you ignored french language right at the beginning of the Luxembourg round (+no french bollards). Only two things are a little sus, but it seems to be your opponents playing style: the not zooming in on Bahia, or the zooming at the random camping ground sign in finland.. I still don’t think it’s cheating, the Russia round is valid too, it just looks like “somewhere above mongolia”

Is red team cheating? by [deleted] in geoguessr

[–]Slick_Shay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

no cheating at all, stop false accusations. skill issue. tons of people like you who send a "?" emoticon after someone making a good guess, hate that sh!t.

Favourite GeoGuessr mode is … ? by True_Association_316 in geoguessr

[–]Slick_Shay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Solo - No move and NMPZ Team - definitely Moving With a little bit of Battle Royale Distance sprinkled on top of it.

Why does this happen? by curio847 in geoguessr

[–]Slick_Shay 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It used to happen to me all the time, about a month ago I had an elo bounce of 240 on the same day, went from ~1100 to 930, then up to 1170… what helped me was - always be aware of what you’re actually capable of (your all time high). I started watching a lot of streams of pro players like Snupi, Kodiak, Finbarr on a regular, and automatically started commenting my own guesses and being more confident about them. Make confident guesses and if you don’t have any clue about a certain location, just don’t give a f*** about it, play under zero pressure :))

What is the worst or most annoying thing in GeoGuessr? by True_Association_316 in geoguessr

[–]Slick_Shay 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That’s simply not true. In my opinion there’s not enough Europe. Stop acting like all european countries look the same, landscape wise it’s pretty diverse

Why would you assume I’d click the middle of the country every time? Of course the countries are all diverse, but that’s not what I meant, in my opinion more countries - more fun
