It's more interesting hearing you talk about the foliage, buildings and people, than having the meta people recognise a type of car or an artifact. Sure it's not good for being "the best" whatever that means to each person, but, it sure is more interesting to me to watch.

As a Korean living in Seoul, I enjoyed the korean round! I knew it was Korea from the iconic apartment buildings. Koreans would look at 분당 instead of 수내. It is one of the best known sub-sub-sub-divisions of Korea, even better known than its super-division Seongnam. Anyways, it is not easy to find either of them for foreigners because 분당 is sub-sub-division in Gyeonggi, 수내 and 정자 is subdivision in 분당. It is very logical to guess near Seoul because 50% of Koreans live in Seoul metropolitan area.

The "å" is silent in the northen dialects meaning "Luleå" is pronounced "Lule", the same goes for most other northern towns ending with "å". The rest of Sweden pronounces it as it is spelled. Luleå is pronounced Luuleoh, and Kiruna is something like Kiiruhnah.

"he's gonna dong me any second I just know it" - never change, Tom.

It is impressive to be sat on an open road with nothing but field around you and guess the right Country let alone the right area. And in a matter of seconds..under pressure. That's mad.

Thought I'd give my take on some of these rounds and add some clues you can use: Game 1 (2:58): Round 1 (3:03): Polish electricity poles, identifiable by the fact that they are concrete and consist of holes which do not reach all the way to the bottom Round 2 (3:45): Small blue sticker on the pole, which is unique to France. Also town names ending with 'ac' tend to be more southern in France Round 3 (4:33): Large circular blur around the camera with low-quality coverage along with Hindi is India. In duels Indian car coverage seems to always be in New Delhi Round 4 (5:06): Slovakian language on those blue signs, Czech/Slovak bollards in distance (identifiable by two orange strips on them) Round 5 (6:03): Grey Google car with bars is Kyrgyzstan, not to be confused with the Guatemala car which is also grey but a bit more bulky, and climate is much warmer. Also it is the north car, as the reflection of the car does not reach the left side of the left wing mirror Round 6 (6:47): Fairly easy round, but also had octagonal concrete poles which are almost always Mexico Round 7 (8:46): Again Mexico poles, along with Gen 4 camera and South America stubby antenna at spawn Round 8 (9:52): Yellow outside lines, red-on-white chevrons, 'R' road numbers on green signs, white car, driving left, all good South Africa clues Game 2 (12:43): Round 1 (12:48): 'Rifts' in the sky, with standard EU plates (only one blue strip) and Balkan looking should be Montenegro Round 2 (13:40): Not a lot to go on, but wooden poles, no antenna, mailboxes on the floor, are all very common in US/Canada Round 3 (15:06): Pedestrian crossing sign with 4 stripes is unique to Norway and Sweden, and yellow sign underneath is unique to Finland and Sweden, meaning we must be in Sweden Round 4 (16:17): Red number plates in a mountainous Asian climate is Bhutan Round 5 (17:01): Longer antenna with rectangular concrete poles is usually Ukraine/Russia Round 6 (17:22): Apart from the flag, words ending with 'ja' are very common in the Balkans Round 7 (17:59): Similar to round 5, but with Cyrillic. Also trees painted white at the bottom are common in Ukraine Round 8 (18:34): Left hand drive, yellow back plates and white fronts, fairly easy round. I can't see clearly but there might have been a red strip on the back plate of that van which would give away Isle of Man, which also commonly uses Gen 2 camera Round 9 (19:24): From what little we can see we can make out a sign post with black and white stripes and palm trees, which is Malaysia Round 10 (19:33): Nothing much to say here Round 11 (20:13): I would have never guessed Jersey so can't help here lol Game 3 (23:03): Round 1 (23:10): Grey car with similar clues to game 2 round 4 Round 2 (24:06): Austrian blue street signs, very often Vienna Round 3 (24:21): Low cam coverage, Japanese script, very nice spot to see Mount Fuji and excellent guess by Tom Round 4 (25:12): Italian, shorter plates with blue strips on both sides Round 5 (26:07): Thai electricity poles are concrete, rectangular and with small dots going down them Round 6 (26:45): Grey Guatemala car Round 7 (27:26): If you looked down you would've seen black tape on the bar which is the Ghana car. Also seemed a bit drier than usual Ghana so a bit northern Round 8 (28:11): Korean language, identifiable by the circles in the text Round 9 (28:56): Signs saying 'Speed Limit' are unique to the US, and the lack of front plates and the tropical climate seemed good for Florida Round 10 (29:47): Gen 4 camera, bright coloured facades, good clue for Mexico Round 11 (30:26): The letters 'ě' and 'ř' are unique to Czech. Road signs with a red or blue background are a good clue for Czechia rather than Slovakia if its a 50/50 Feel free to add anything else below or correct me where I'm wrong.

As a Swede I immediately recognised Luleå and Kiruna. It was so obvious it was it Kiruna bc there was the airport symbol and later the hospital symbol next to it. I thought Narvik would lead him up the E10 to look at Kiruna instead of the base of the E10, but ... he beat them so

Let out an audible oh no with my mouth wide open at 31:00 😂. Love your cope at the end saying that was gonna happen, he was too good at the end, even though you were bang on before you changed your guess 😂

Watched you a lot over the years and this game is the best content I’d say!

Remember.... Interstate routes are designated by one- or two-digit numbers. Routes with odd numbers run north and south, while even numbered run east and west. For north-south routes, the lowest numbers begin in the west, while the lowest numbered east-west routes are in the south. This can speed up your searches.

Man, I’m French and just an advice, when a French city name is finishing with “AC” like “Merignac” it’s in the south west of France not far away from Bordeau

India is on the maps now, but I've only ever encountered New Delhi. The huge blur around the car is also a clue

fun to watch you playing this game conjuring solid guesses out of thin air. well done, mate!

You were on an absolute roll until that Czech round! Some very impressive guesses! Just shows a brutal competitive mode is.

The fast guess on the healing round is mostly to deny your opponent the heal, if you're in the lead. Less time to look for the correct spot.
