Computer games?

I amaze myself sometimes.

Thought this was the best, most interesting game I'd ever seen when procrastinating yesterday. Played today ... bored.

I'll be back next time I have something more important to do as I'm sure it'll be a really cool game again when I should be focusing on something else!

Excellent! A bit of a mashup of the Streetview randomiser mashup MapCrunch (god I hate that term ), I like going on there occasionally to try to find driving roads etc.

See how good (bad!) you are when you don't move from the initial position and don't Google anything.

So you can only zoom, look around and make educated guesses from things like what the cars/people look like and then general terrain.

That'll sort the men from the boys.

My score without cheating! 9752

9014

Got really lucky with the first one was right next to a truck with Thai script, so I just clicked randomly in the middle of Thailand and was less than 100km away! Awful guess with B and D though Also a bit lucky with the two North American ones, made a guess on the landscapes and wasn't too far off

15070 with a flukey 14km off when I recognised the bilingual french/basque school sign. Addictive although bloody annoying when you find yourself in the middle of a Turkish wheatfield or Korean mountain top.

[dipwing]

10868 on first go.
I like it!

Bum!

15ks off on first choice (mid-Sweden), and then mistook Eastern South Africa for North Carolina (only 15,000k off)

It's lucky I haven't got a massive report to write, otherwise I might be on this all day!

[Strangely Brown]

My best so far is 28399.

Click

That was using google to look stuff up but otherwise just plain detective work.

Best score without google is 12500ish.
