CuraΓ§ao?

StanM, Saturday, 27 March 2021 17:37 (five years ago)

I mean, there is that famous harbour view of Willemstad with the painted houses - but the mountain in the background, no idea

StanM, Saturday, 27 March 2021 17:38 (five years ago)

Curacao just dished out a 5-0 spanking of Saint Vincent & the Grenadines the other night

calzino, Saturday, 27 March 2021 18:10 (five years ago)

Thought it might be Bo Kaap in Cape Town but perhaps not quite colourful enough and that's not quite Table Mountain

Mindelo

Mindelo, Cabo Verde islands

or something, Saturday, 27 March 2021 18:30 (five years ago)

Boom! Nice work. How did you find it?

Vanishing Point (Chinaski), Saturday, 27 March 2021 18:56 (five years ago)

A fair bit of image searching "colourful buildings africa coast"

or something, Saturday, 27 March 2021 19:27 (five years ago)

Had a dream that I posted an image here and no one got it after weeks of guesses.

Originally I thought Bozhmy Novmanor but the shade of green on one of the fences didn't feel quite right

cherry blossom, Monday, 29 March 2021 16:50 (five years ago)

I'd like to post pictures to this thread but I'm a bit of a luddite. What do you guys do, take a screenshot or share a google maps streetview to imgur and then link it?

or something, Monday, 29 March 2021 17:07 (five years ago)

I take a screenshot and then post to postimg.cc

cherry blossom, Monday, 29 March 2021 17:20 (five years ago)

possibly of interest to members of this group, some of these are effectively "guess the state"

i was 15 for 21, had a run near the beginning where i got 5 wrong

γ€ŠMyst1kOblivi0n》 (jim in vancouver), Monday, 29 March 2021 17:30 (five years ago)

but they also gave me a part of brooklyn which trump won by 81 points (!!!) which seems tricky

γ€ŠMyst1kOblivi0n》 (jim in vancouver), Monday, 29 March 2021 17:33 (five years ago)

(i am aware there are parts of brooklyn that are mega racist blue lives matter italians and such but having never been to any part of brooklyn i can't really discriminate and it all just looks like brooklyn to me)

γ€ŠMyst1kOblivi0n》 (jim in vancouver), Monday, 29 March 2021 17:34 (five years ago)

15/21 though a good chunk of them were either barely right or close but no

cherry blossom, Monday, 29 March 2021 17:44 (five years ago)

yeah I was pretty good at guessing the state but not at guessing which parts of Florida went Biden

Let's see if this works...

or something, Monday, 29 March 2021 18:40 (five years ago)

Thanks cherry blossom

or something, Monday, 29 March 2021 18:40 (five years ago)

Is that too low definition for everybody?

or something, Monday, 29 March 2021 18:41 (five years ago)

that's fine if you click through. here it is embedded full size

It's fine once I clicked through.

Instinctively thought Denver but those trees look like horse chestnuts so I think somewhere in the UK.

Vanishing Point (Chinaski), Monday, 29 March 2021 18:43 (five years ago)

they're driving on the right. it's not the uk. and there's a bus lane which makes me think it's not the US.

Cheers caek, what did I wrong for next time?

or something, Monday, 29 March 2021 18:45 (five years ago)

Klagenfurt it is lol, back to the drawing board. How did you get it?

or something, Monday, 29 March 2021 18:46 (five years ago)

If thats the UK I'm an extra in Bosom-On-Manor II

"landesmuseum"

π” π”žπ”’π”¨ (caek), Monday, 29 March 2021 18:46 (five years ago)

GIS'd "Landesmuseum" and it was on the first page of answers, fortunately.

joni mitchell jarre (anagram), Monday, 29 March 2021 18:47 (five years ago)

Cheers caek, what did I wrong for next time?

Can't believe I missed Landesmuseum, embarrassing rookie error

I thought it said Norsmuseum so I googled that (unsuccessfully).

Nottingham

John Cooper of Christian rock band Skillet (map), Monday, 29 March 2021 18:59 (five years ago)

I got 20 of 21 on that NYTimes thing, but I've also lived in a lot of different parts of the US, and if I haven't, I've been through them. My years of vagabondage pay off in such weird knowledge, I guess.

it's like edging for your mind (the table is the table), Monday, 29 March 2021 19:00 (five years ago)

Not Nottingham.

xp

joni mitchell jarre (anagram), Monday, 29 March 2021 19:00 (five years ago)

That is definitely godawful enough to be the UK.

Duncan Disorderly (Tom D.), Monday, 29 March 2021 19:03 (five years ago)

100% the UK. Should be able to get the streetview for this one I think

cherry blossom, Monday, 29 March 2021 19:04 (five years ago)

Walks back overconfidence

cherry blossom, Monday, 29 March 2021 19:11 (five years ago)

this is definitely the UK

Gammon-on-Brexit

but could equally be

cwmnllyngn

or

The normal rule of thumb for the UK is, if it looks like nowhere and everywhere at the same time then its Stoke On Trent

cherry blossom, Monday, 29 March 2021 19:18 (five years ago)

Not Stoke-on-Trent. It is a city, though, not a town.

joni mitchell jarre (anagram), Monday, 29 March 2021 19:20 (five years ago)

No, if it looks like nowhere and everywhere at the same time - but worse - then its Stoke On Trent.

Duncan Disorderly (Tom D.), Monday, 29 March 2021 19:20 (five years ago)

Looks like Manchester with the motorway right up next to terraces, if that is a motorway

or something, Monday, 29 March 2021 19:21 (five years ago)

sheffield IMO

π” π”žπ”’π”¨ (caek), Monday, 29 March 2021 19:23 (five years ago)

Not Manchester or Sheffield.

joni mitchell jarre (anagram), Monday, 29 March 2021 19:23 (five years ago)

sheffield IMO

You answer Sheffield for every city!
