palermo?

nxd, Friday, 20 November 2015 15:32 (eight years ago) link

it is on the mediterranean, not palermo. if your resolution is high enough you might be able to make out a wall around the old part of the city. you can't really tell but it's on quite a slope down to the sea.

ogmor, Friday, 20 November 2015 15:50 (eight years ago) link

kinda tucked away in a gulf rather than on coast proper

conrad, Friday, 20 November 2015 15:59 (eight years ago) link

Thessalonika?

ewar woowar (or something), Friday, 20 November 2015 16:04 (eight years ago) link

yes!

ogmor, Friday, 20 November 2015 16:06 (eight years ago) link

excellent city btw, I commend it to you all

ogmor, Friday, 20 November 2015 16:07 (eight years ago) link

Loving the game. Now if someone could just show me how to upload an image without downloading an app to my phone I could contribute one of my own.

ewar woowar (or something), Friday, 20 November 2015 16:14 (eight years ago) link

I shouldve blurted it out but go ahead

conrad, Friday, 20 November 2015 16:18 (eight years ago) link

You should have, but go ahead anyway, I'm a few down as it is.

ewar woowar (or something), Friday, 20 November 2015 16:22 (eight years ago) link

All of Northern Italy looks like that...

parma?

ciderpress, Friday, 20 November 2015 17:19 (eight years ago) link

can't find it in parma but damn it looks so similar!

ciderpress, Friday, 20 November 2015 17:41 (eight years ago) link

not italy

conrad, Friday, 20 November 2015 17:48 (eight years ago) link

I just followed the little ferry lines all over the mediterranean and couldn't find a port that looked like that.

I did that exact same thing this afternoon.

ailsa, Friday, 20 November 2015 18:58 (eight years ago) link

that frank gehry looking thing on the northeast campus should be a clue

LEON

El Tomboto, Friday, 20 November 2015 19:17 (eight years ago) link

Spain

El Tomboto, Friday, 20 November 2015 19:17 (eight years ago) link

I was thinking northern spain/basque country but I never would've thought of leon for whatever reason, but it makes sense because it's not quite green enough to be Asturias or Galicia (in my not particularly informed opinion)

tokyo?

ogmor, Friday, 20 November 2015 20:29 (eight years ago) link

Close, but not Tokyo.

El Tomboto, Friday, 20 November 2015 21:17 (eight years ago) link

Actually that one makes me realize some of Bing's satellite shots seem like they might be hella old

El Tomboto, Friday, 20 November 2015 21:28 (eight years ago) link

Less old, than taken on a day when the wind blew from China.

Humean froth (Sanpaku), Friday, 20 November 2015 23:58 (eight years ago) link

Uhhh... Busan?

Frump 'n' Dump (Doctor Casino), Saturday, 21 November 2015 00:28 (eight years ago) link

osaka has a dozen rivers that all run in the right direction to be that one but i couldn't find it

ciderpress, Saturday, 21 November 2015 00:38 (eight years ago) link

Less old, than taken on a day when the wind blew from China.

southeast corner not finished

El Tomboto, Saturday, 21 November 2015 00:59 (eight years ago) link

as this hasn't been solved is a clue in order?

ogmor, Tuesday, 24 November 2015 15:15 (eight years ago) link

also I hope these are all aligned northwards otherwise this is just ridiculous

ogmor, Tuesday, 24 November 2015 15:15 (eight years ago) link

haha that's what i was worried about when i guessed palermo up top

nxd, Tuesday, 24 November 2015 15:23 (eight years ago) link

ciderpress, Tuesday, 24 November 2015 15:29 (eight years ago) link

An oval dirt racetrack in the middle of a city?

El Tomboto, Tuesday, 24 November 2015 17:32 (eight years ago) link

Not helpful: http://speedwaysonline.com/tracks/category/oval-tracks/?nsd_surface=dirt

El Tomboto, Tuesday, 24 November 2015 17:40 (eight years ago) link

Singapore I think?

The Male Gaz Coombes (Neil S), Tuesday, 24 November 2015 17:52 (eight years ago) link

Almost thought it was Cincinnati, if Cincinnati's population was about 100 times more dense.

pplains, Wednesday, 25 November 2015 01:27 (eight years ago) link

They're dense anyway for putting chocolate and cinnamon on their chili, but I meant the other kind of dense.

pplains, Wednesday, 25 November 2015 01:27 (eight years ago) link

not singapore (or cincinnati)

ciderpress, Wednesday, 25 November 2015 01:40 (eight years ago) link

i do like cinnamon in chili though

ciderpress, Wednesday, 25 November 2015 01:43 (eight years ago) link

singamoncinnati

Doctor Casino, Wednesday, 25 November 2015 04:44 (eight years ago) link

the tight grid plus oval racetrack is making me think Autódromo but arrrgh which one?

El Tomboto, Wednesday, 25 November 2015 20:02 (eight years ago) link

oval track could be for horses

Aimless, Wednesday, 25 November 2015 20:05 (eight years ago) link

Wait, of course you put cinnamon in chill? Chocolate, though, don't know about that.

Frederik B, Wednesday, 25 November 2015 20:19 (eight years ago) link

I don't think it's for horses as there doesn't appear to be any stabling facilities xp.

Also thinking that's a big river, has to be south america or Asia but I'm struggling.

ewar woowar (or something), Wednesday, 25 November 2015 20:29 (eight years ago) link

Buenos Aires has a tight grid and at least three big dirt ovals but is still not the answer. arrrrrrrgh

El Tomboto, Thursday, 26 November 2015 18:41 (eight years ago) link

ROSARIO ARGENTINA

El Tomboto, Thursday, 26 November 2015 19:00 (eight years ago) link

and Aimless was right it is a Hipódromo not an Autódromo
