Only cheating if you google, otherwise IMO signs are fair game. Relatively speaking, there should definitely be a time limit for each game.

Fun game. First game I had a picture of a gas station and a bunch of dirt/desert and a couple of trees. American cars and white people. I guessed New Mexico. It was Austrailia for like 20 points.

Guessed New Jersey and it was Russia. Not even mad. Both places looks to be utterly miserable.

Some of the Eastern European shitholes I've been dropped in to make me appreciate having grown up in boring ass Ohio.

I tried to play 3 times, and I feel like every single picture was either US/Canada, Australia, or Eastern Europe.

Those are the biggies along with Western Europe. Brazil and South Africa are also common.

Probably the most random country I've ended up in was Botswana.

I agree looking at signs is fine. Using Google should be punishable by death.

I had one that put me in a city. I scrolled around and saw the word "Montreal" on a building. So I clicked on Montreal. Turns out it was one of those tiny countries north of Brazil. And then I had this vague memory of school growing up when we were doing world geography where we found out one of those little countries was originally a French colony. Well, fuck me, Google!

I've played like 5 times and have never got a place in Africa. Ive guessed Africa a couple times because they were just fucking dirt roads and it looked to be safari like, but of course it was Australia every damn time!

Fuck this shit. I was actually having a pretty good round. And then for #4, I got this dirt roads and farm area with absolutely nothing to give a remote-ass clue where I was. Wound up being in Thailand. I got 82 points for that one.

I also had a game where I picked South Africa and it was Australia. And then later picked Australia and it was South Africa.

So, we need to bomb one of those places, so I can tell them apart!

New best score: 8443

Did solid on 4/5, but had that one where I was off by about two continents because it was just a random dirt road out in the middle of nowhere.

You mistook a South American country for Canada?

If vehicles are on the left side of the road and you see english, I guess Australia.

Any way to not have fucking Russia pop up, that and the Scandinavian countries suck.
