I hadn't seen it, but 100 points for saying repost - a phrase, ironically enough, reposted ten times a day on PH.

Your guess was 0.249 km from the correct location and gave 6458 points.

The image was right outside Stonington Post Office, Maine. hehe

5/5: Oh great, a road in a forest. Your guess was 12761.995 km from the correct location and gave 193 points. Unsurprisingly. I was in the right kind of climate but completely wrong continent.

Game finished!
You got 13304 points in total.

Beat you by 500 points.

Some useful clues in some of the locations, such as the wallmap on the last one which shows you exactly where you are!

Ohhh, ok. biggrin I thought you must have been right where the tyres were on the google car to get that score. I was in the wrong end of the street for my Maine post office guess.
