31st July curved road
― cherry blossom, Friday, 31 July 2020 22:40 (five years ago)
I will say: is it in Asia? just to get the ball rolling
― No mean feat. DaBaby (breastcrawl), Saturday, 1 August 2020 09:43 (five years ago)
31st is in Asia, and 27th isn't!
― cherry blossom, Saturday, 1 August 2020 09:48 (five years ago)
oh yeah, I meant the 31st, sorry. East Asia, no? (but that will probably all from me)

not a clue.
ominous looking and disused Eastern European train station?
― Temporary Erogenous Zone (jim in vancouver), Friday, 21 August 2020 17:21 (five years ago)
I'm struck by how it's all very clean, with no litter or visible graffiti.
There's some characters/a logo on the modern building in the background on the right hand side of the last photo, but I'm not sure what to make of them - are they Japanese maybe?
Definitely wondering about Asia, but struggling to guess a country even.

In the first photo there's a motorway-esque road in the background with green gantry signs, if anyone knows which countries use that colour for those.
There also looks like what could be two flags on the right in front of the road, but sadly no wind to display them. Looks like they might be white and red, maybe blue too? My brain keeps filling them in as British flags, but that seems like nonsense.
― brain (krakow), Friday, 21 August 2020 17:55 (five years ago)
ah, interesting. seem to be characters that are either not roman (nor Cyrillic) or if they are perhaps with diacritics not usually found in European languages
― Temporary Erogenous Zone (jim in vancouver), Friday, 21 August 2020 18:05 (five years ago)
Could be Vietnamese, Hanoi?

those bare trees make me think it isn't subtropical tho

are those .. american flags? red white and blue at least
― Give me a Chad Smith-type feel (map), Friday, 21 August 2020 19:29 (five years ago)
Those look like US green highway signs in the first picture and honestly everything about this looks like a desolate NJ Transit station except the wooden slats on the train tracks
― Guayaquil (eephus!), Friday, 21 August 2020 19:33 (five years ago)
this is USA for sure

ah
― Temporary Erogenous Zone (jim in vancouver), Friday, 21 August 2020 19:39 (five years ago)
The shape of the buildings feels like New Jersey but that obelisky thing in the first picture is making me consider Massachusetts.
― Guayaquil (eephus!), Friday, 21 August 2020 19:41 (five years ago)
definitely east coast, mid atlantic-new england

Great team effort, finished off with precision by Yerac. Hartford it is!

The strange writing is of course the logo for a Red Roof Inn

I was close, it starts with "Ha!"
― nickn, Friday, 21 August 2020 20:37 (five years ago)
lol
― Give me a Chad Smith-type feel (map), Friday, 21 August 2020 20:37 (five years ago)
I feel like my answer of "it seems like Massachusetts but also like a desolate part of New Jersey" was morally correct

Lots of clues (poverty, light skin-tones, ex-communist-style architecture) that indicate the poorer parts of Europe or west/central Asia. The most intriguing clue is how flat the landscape is, so most of the Balkans are out. Looks more like the steppes than a littoral, since it is so bereft of vegetation.

Stolipinovo?

idk feels like we have a winner here, no?
― No mean feat. DaBaby (breastcrawl), Sunday, 23 August 2020 15:07 (five years ago)
I would have accepted Plovdiv given thats the city, but if we're down to neighbourhood level then Stolipinovo is a gold star answer!
― cherry blossom, Sunday, 23 August 2020 15:44 (five years ago)
that's impressive! because of this i found a documentary about stolipinovo on youtube that i will save to watch later.
― contorted filbert (harbl), Sunday, 23 August 2020 18:42 (five years ago)
Is that the documentary from 2009? I found it and watched yesterday

yes

Hay can you give us another clue for the 27th July?
― Tim, Monday, 24 August 2020 12:17 (five years ago)
27 July looks northern European, possibly Scandi: Sundsvall?

I can see a two-spired cathedral on July 27th photo. Is it Fulda?

no those roofs are extremely mitteleuropäische

the chimney stack in front of the hills does look a lot like the hope valley cement works though!
