Old Croc Posted January 16, 2008 Share Posted January 16, 2008 Or maybe you two experts can give us poor novices some tips and websites as where to look? Many thanks..... A tip - Interest in geography and travel, patience, obcession and a lack of life outside the forum. OK. This is a site I use to find some of the cities. Many of the pics are quite old and often the one needed is missing. It can be a help at times. world cities Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Momo8 Posted January 16, 2008 Share Posted January 16, 2008 Thanks Old Croc,apart from having an avid interest in travel/geography a few website pointers does help otherwise this 'game' is limited to the few 'in the know'.Whose turn is it?

Old Croc Posted January 16, 2008 Share Posted January 16, 2008 It's LaoPo's turn. He's trying to find a village with about 20 people and two dogs in it because my last one was smallish! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LaoPo Posted January 17, 2008 Share Posted January 17, 2008 No, not UK and not Scandinavia or Baltic or Germany/Poland. It's on the European mainland, but on a coast not a lake. LaoPo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LaoPo Posted January 17, 2008 Share Posted January 17, 2008 Isteria ?...do you mean Istria ? If so, the answer is NO. Also not Porec. Both places are in the wrong country. LaoPo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
suiging Posted January 17, 2008 Share Posted January 17, 2008 (edited) Isteria ?...do you mean Istria ?If so, the answer is NO. Also not Porec. Both places are in the wrong country. LaoPo Yes I probably did. Much like my feeble attempt at a Chinese city, I try to do these off the top of my head.....It's never worked yet..............Sorry.

Old Croc Posted January 18, 2008 Share Posted January 18, 2008 Is it in Italy, perhaps Sardinia? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
suiging Posted January 18, 2008 Share Posted January 18, 2008 Anyway, this place had a scenic value I wanted to share with other players, and I for one, learnt a lot more about an Island I was fairly ignorant about previously. I agree Croc; we all learned a lot with this game. I learned about places I didn't know they existed. Searching for places brings you around the world and increases your knowledge considerably. However, I feel sorry there are just a few players and I wonder if it is 'non-interest' or that other members are 'afraid' for playing along....? Or, maybe they know everything already.... LaoPo May be the graphic requirements mean people " In country" do not have the connection speeds to search ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is another disappointing reason for people to miss out on this, because the more the better for this thread in my opinion. However, there's a thread elsewhere about rich and poor and if one should feel guilty if you have an abundance of riches. While sympathetic and understanding of the bandwidth deprived, I feel no guilt for my ability to fly, figuratively, through the cities of the world.

LaoPo Posted January 20, 2008 Share Posted January 20, 2008 Bump. I re-post the photo: To help a bit, I re-post the NON places: Not UK and not Scandinavia or Baltic or Germany/Poland. It's on the European mainland, but on a coast not a lake. Not in Croatia nor Montenegro nor Italy, nor France. Not around the Black Sea, so not one of the countries surrounding the Black Sea.
