Are you going to tell us what 91 is first?

Ismael Klata, Tuesday, 18 November 2008 14:30 (fifteen years ago) link

Oh yes!

91 is here - you should be able to see the distinctive shape from this

Well that's a relief. You have no idea how many hours I spent gazing at that photo, hoping the Eiffel Tower or the Pyramids would suddenly emerge into view

Ismael Klata, Tuesday, 18 November 2008 14:46 (fifteen years ago) link

Ha sorry. I know it was kind of an obscure one but people were successful at getting all kinds of obscure ones and I thought the shape kind of distinctive

cherry blossom, Tuesday, 18 November 2008 14:48 (fifteen years ago) link

Is 94 Charlotte?

caek, Tuesday, 18 November 2008 15:29 (fifteen years ago) link

98=Roanoke Virginia, from Mill Mountain!

P.S. Hi dere!

doo dah, Tuesday, 18 November 2008 16:34 (fifteen years ago) link

damn. i was checking everything likely in New England and the mid-Atlantic, and stopped just short, at Lynchburg.

gabbneb, Tuesday, 18 November 2008 16:40 (fifteen years ago) link

98 is indeed Roanoke, well done! Surpisingly recognisable and distinctive perhaps

cherry blossom, Tuesday, 18 November 2008 16:55 (fifteen years ago) link

I grew up there! More recognizable with the star, perhaps ;)

doo dah, Tuesday, 18 November 2008 17:11 (fifteen years ago) link

one month passes...

99. Ok so its hardly a city but I'm sure someone will get it!

new hope, pa?

909090909 Rivethed Brikkchin Reverk now DANZ (Mackro Mackro), Friday, 9 January 2009 16:34 (fifteen years ago) link

It isn't - but that is a very good guess!

cherry blossom, Friday, 9 January 2009 16:36 (fifteen years ago) link

91: Valdez, Alaska?

Eazy, Friday, 9 January 2009 16:43 (fifteen years ago) link

Oh, wait, I just saw the first 91 photo, and now I says, Halifax?

Eazy, Friday, 9 January 2009 16:45 (fifteen years ago) link

I'm guessing it has to be in the U.S. Right-side driving + use of word "State Law". Then again, maybe some provinces use the word "state" for sign purposes?

909090909 Rivethed Brikkchin Reverk now DANZ (Mackro Mackro), Friday, 9 January 2009 17:40 (fifteen years ago) link

and you know, american flags. minor details.

100. http://farm1.static.flickr.com/21/37173120_8298b74779.jpg?v=0

101: http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3422/3211943005_e759c238cb_b.jpg

cherry blossom, Tuesday, 20 January 2009 13:07 (fifteen years ago) link

101: Glossop? It's not Bath is it?

caek, Tuesday, 20 January 2009 13:42 (fifteen years ago) link

Closer with the first guess. Wildly wrong with the second!

cherry blossom, Wednesday, 21 January 2009 10:18 (fifteen years ago) link

I said it's not Bath! : )

Uh, Harrogate?

caek, Wednesday, 21 January 2009 10:21 (fifteen years ago) link

A bit too hilly for Harrogate!

cherry blossom, Wednesday, 21 January 2009 10:22 (fifteen years ago) link

#100 is hard - I don't even know what to guess at

cherry blossom, Wednesday, 21 January 2009 10:23 (fifteen years ago) link

I don't actually know what Harrogate is like, but the photo seems a bit posher than a lot of the dumps I'm thinking of.

caek, Wednesday, 21 January 2009 10:24 (fifteen years ago) link

101 looks a bit like Hebden Bridge to me.

Tim, Wednesday, 21 January 2009 10:25 (fifteen years ago) link

I was going to say Wakefield, yeah

caek, Wednesday, 21 January 2009 10:25 (fifteen years ago) link

bah, you got it

caek, Wednesday, 21 January 2009 10:26 (fifteen years ago) link

Torquay?

Alba, Wednesday, 21 January 2009 10:41 (fifteen years ago) link

nope

caek, Wednesday, 21 January 2009 10:45 (fifteen years ago) link

Swansea.

Alba, Wednesday, 21 January 2009 11:06 (fifteen years ago) link

caek, Wednesday, 21 January 2009 11:13 (fifteen years ago) link

Addis Ababa.

Alba, Wednesday, 21 January 2009 11:42 (fifteen years ago) link

haha

caek, Wednesday, 21 January 2009 11:43 (fifteen years ago) link

clue for #100: its in the UK.

tomofthenest, Wednesday, 21 January 2009 12:18 (fifteen years ago) link

99. still unguessed. And how did a tilt shift photo of it appear almost as soon as it was posted?!!

100. I feel like this is maybe in Cumbria?

101. Hebden Bridge yes!

102. Newton Abbot?

cherry blossom, Wednesday, 21 January 2009 12:30 (fifteen years ago) link

102 I was thinking Devon too - Sidmouth? Torbay?

100 no, not Cumbria!

tomofthenest, Wednesday, 21 January 2009 12:40 (fifteen years ago) link

There's something about 100 that makes me think its on the west somewhere (Strathclyde? Lancashire?)

And then I look at it again and I think of the south bank of the Thames somewhere east of Greenwich.

cherry blossom, Wednesday, 21 January 2009 13:04 (fifteen years ago) link

Could be Birkenhead or other left Bank Merseyside locale?

Ed, Wednesday, 21 January 2009 13:07 (fifteen years ago) link

I wondered whether 100 was the north bank of the Thames, weast of London, like Grays or somewhere.

102 is blocked from this computer, which is frustrating because my hometown is one of the outstanding guesses!

Tim, Wednesday, 21 January 2009 13:08 (fifteen years ago) link

"weast", nice. East, I meant.

Tim, Wednesday, 21 January 2009 13:08 (fifteen years ago) link

#100 Not Thames, Mersey or Clyde. Nor Lancashire.

tomofthenest, Wednesday, 21 January 2009 13:20 (fifteen years ago) link

none of the 102 guesses are right, but none of them are crazy

caek, Wednesday, 21 January 2009 13:39 (fifteen years ago) link

Truro? Penzance? St Ives?

tomofthenest, Wednesday, 21 January 2009 13:42 (fifteen years ago) link

penzance it is

caek, Wednesday, 21 January 2009 13:43 (fifteen years ago) link

hooray for me and random guesses.
