― harbl, Wednesday, 9 June 2010 17:24 (thirteen 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.

nah i was just passing through. we got out of the car and walked around but it started pouring. i would love to go back and do a tour!
― harbl, Wednesday, 9 June 2010 17:30 (thirteen years ago) link
I didn't even pass through!
I made a mistake with 114 I put the wrong picture up, its kind of hard (but then so was ashland!). I'm going to leave it up there and put the one i meant to put up as 115

I want to say Glasgow because there are a pair of high-rises behind Celtic Park, but I don't recognise the streets.
― ailsa, Wednesday, 9 June 2010 17:42 (thirteen years ago) link
oh, and also it doesn't really look that much like Celtic Park
― ailsa, Wednesday, 9 June 2010 17:43 (thirteen years ago) link
I reckon somewhere midlands-y or northern england anyway. Oldham?
― ailsa, Wednesday, 9 June 2010 17:45 (thirteen years ago) link
Think the first one might be Glasgow though?
― ailsa, Wednesday, 9 June 2010 17:56 (thirteen years ago) link
Stadium in 115 is Elland Road... Leeds.
― tomofthenest, Wednesday, 9 June 2010 18:46 (thirteen years ago) link
115 is indeed Leeds tom! a pretty easy one
wrong on (the much harder) 114 though
― cherry blossom, Wednesday, 9 June 2010 19:17 (thirteen years ago) link
That is a good shot of Leeds, love those back to backs. Have you got a link to a bigger version? (yes, I want to steal it).

I am going to kick myself when 114 is identified because it looks very familiar.

The full Leeds pic...so weirdly carless!

there's mills in 114. Burnley?

Thanks! xp

Huddersfield?
― i'm gonna go and talk to some food about this (Ned Trifle II), Wednesday, 9 June 2010 20:19 (thirteen years ago) link
Blackburn?
― i'm gonna go and talk to some food about this (Ned Trifle II), Wednesday, 9 June 2010 20:26 (thirteen years ago) link
neither - I made that pic too hard I think, could have been easier from a different angle maybe
― cherry blossom, Wednesday, 9 June 2010 20:32 (thirteen years ago) link
Rochdale?
― Don't look at the finger (Ste), Wednesday, 9 June 2010 20:33 (thirteen years ago) link
It's really really familiar, but can't place it... yet!
― tomofthenest, Wednesday, 9 June 2010 20:33 (thirteen years ago) link
Yes, Rochdale, from a different angle the big red mill might have given it away more

a plain state?
― Super Cub, Wednesday, 9 June 2010 20:37 (thirteen years ago) link
these are all hard because at first i assume they are in the u.s. but then i have no idea, and definitely can't recognize anything in the uk

116: Pyramids just out of view
― StanM, Wednesday, 9 June 2010 20:38 (thirteen years ago) link
detroit?
― tomofthenest, Wednesday, 9 June 2010 20:39 (thirteen years ago) link
detroit was the first to come to my mind, but the street's so wide that it looks like the main street of a much smaller midwest town
― del griffith, Wednesday, 9 June 2010 20:40 (thirteen years ago) link
not detroit (i thought someone might guess there, but it isn't)

harbl you're almost there!
― cherry blossom, Wednesday, 9 June 2010 20:43 (thirteen years ago) link
well i really don't know of any cities there except east saint louis or carbondale and i have a feeling it's neither. probably a small-ish town. i've never been there, i just had a feeling.
― harbl, Wednesday, 9 June 2010 20:45 (thirteen years ago) link
jacksonville (I am using google maps to guess, can you tell?)
― tomofthenest, Wednesday, 9 June 2010 20:45 (thirteen years ago) link
Haha, I understand the pyramids reference now, but I cheated so I won't give it away.
― tomofthenest, Wednesday, 9 June 2010 20:47 (thirteen years ago) link
oh, i didn't even see the pyramids thing. it's a place where it's hard out for a pimp right

xps Ahhh Rochdale! Amazing detail, you can see the fire station and the dome of the rather splendid John the Baptist church.

ah ok. i wouldn't have guessed from the 100s of possibilities without that clue, but i'm still proud of my ability to guess what part of what state.
