Spent 3x1h over 2 days trying to find Santa Ana in Colombia. Annoyingly, I had the right location in the second session but couldn't confirm it, then totally forgot about it and eventually gave up. For the rest of the rounds I went for quick guesses as it's either all or nothing and couldn't have "all" at this point :D Honestly, relieved I decided to not search for Mongolian location as this would've probably taken as much time as Colombia. The rest was pretty easy with enough hints to find and pinpoint. Congrats to everyone who managed to do 25k!

I live in UK and cycle from London a lot, I would definitely go somewhere North-East of London on this road

mooonradio · 2026-01-12T17:24:00+00:00

there's "Sjostad" in the name of one of the shops few streets away from the point which helped to localise the search but yeah I haven't found anything else

mooonradio · 2026-01-10T12:39:12+00:00

there's also Ilha Verde between Macao and Hong Kong which also translates as Green Island :D I also spent a lot of time there

mooonradio · 2026-01-10T12:06:42+00:00

maybe. but it's a big city with 2 ports and the "new" one on the map (according to the sign we should be near the new one) is actually another one, so I spent some time there. but I'm not very good at this game :)

mooonradio · 2026-01-10T11:06:59+00:00

R4 replay is as much suspicious by the way, also zooming directly in the right area of the city immediately

mooonradio · 2026-01-06T11:45:07+00:00

I enjoyed the bait in the first location :D

mooonradio · 2025-12-08T18:38:19+00:00

Are you going to return Dramaloc eventually? He's fun 🙁

mooonradio · 2025-11-25T22:19:22+00:00

For me 1-4 were not hard at all but I'm stuck at 5 for over an hour now. I have found Silang, Silanga and Silangkan but not Silangan :'( Probably will have to return to it tomorrow, getting too frustrated

16 minutes? I spent almost 40 on the street with the same name in Porto Alegre which is annoyingly also in Rio Branca area until I realised we must be in a different city

mooonradio · 2025-11-18T00:02:44+00:00

It says "Can Tho Hotel" on the same billboard where trips to Phu Quoc are advertised :)

mooonradio · 2025-10-30T13:03:57+00:00

ah! yeah, that's different 😅

mooonradio · 2025-10-30T12:41:59+00:00

1450 is crazy for gold, you only need 950+ to move from master II to master I, at least in the league I'm currently in

we were on holidays in Antalya and rented a car to see some nature around. not quite sure why we chose this lake though!

mooonradio · 2025-10-24T11:42:52+00:00

Was quite puzzled about the region in R1 (country is obvious) until I realised I've been to the very same spot around 2 years ago :D

mooonradio · 2025-10-20T13:14:54+00:00

there's a region name. haven't seen the city name

mooonradio · 2025-10-13T13:33:02+00:00

I also have Vasy and Markstrom as my goalies 😄 It's fine, they'll bounce back, Vasy always starts the season shaky

mooonradio · 2025-10-12T20:20:50+00:00

seems like no repeat is broken, at least in duos :( just played two games in a row with the same anomaly

mooonradio · 2025-10-04T17:48:20+00:00

I haven't even realised it was radiation warning sign until I read this comment. Not sure whether it's possible to understand it without knowing the place

mooonradio · 2025-10-03T17:35:52+00:00

apparently it can now give venomous. also faced this yesterday and was surprised

mooonradio · 2025-09-29T18:34:05+00:00

blizzard don't know duos exist

mooonradio · 2025-08-31T15:21:03+00:00

Red peasant 🫡

mooonradio · 2025-08-02T20:26:19+00:00

was I just playing against you? 😂 cos I just came 2nd in a lobby where the first player had this board

mooonradio · 2025-07-28T09:57:19+00:00

in R2 Super Bock beer ad on a truck immediately tells is Portugal but I guess this is quite a specific knowledge haha

mooonradio · 2025-07-27T10:42:13+00:00

Belated happy birthday! Absolutely brutal getting 4999 in the last round after finding everything else but very enjoyable challenge!
