haha, i love this game. my tendency to latch on to an arbitrary detail like street median foliage or misidentified architectural style and be convinced it's representative of one part of the world when it's another altogether, not so much.

Thought Odessa before Kiev was posted, thinking Chisinau (slavic/latinate hybrid, light and plants say lowish latitude), then thought too wealthy, mercantile past = Odessa
― Nathan, Wednesday, 2 December 2009 18:34 (fourteen years ago) link
That's some good work. I didn't think there was too much of a slavic giveaway, other than that little dome and those beautiful, beautiful cars. I'm just noticing that fantastic fire escape up the right-hand side too.

Slavic as Andrei Arshavin on a pogrom tbh

sorry i was a bit late but I can confirm that #99 was indeed Ashland, PA
that was really very good, how did you know?
― cherry blossom, Tuesday, 8 June 2010 22:25 (fourteen years ago) link
because i've been there! i was amazed that i was right though. i thought it looked like that place i had been through when i visited centralia, pa, but i didn't remember what it was called. i did remember that some of the houses for sale had signs from anthracite realty, so i googled that and narrowed down the possibilities from there. i didn't really think it would be the same place, i thought it would be a place that looked like it.
― harbl, Tuesday, 8 June 2010 22:32 (fourteen years ago) link
Well it was v good!
I enjoyed this thread very much

― harbl, Wednesday, 9 June 2010 17:24 (fourteen years ago) link
my guesses are generally horrible though
harbl or cherry blossom, did you go take the mine tour or go to knobels grove when you went to centralia? cuz that's what I did.
