mallorca is just the name of the island i guess

OK.
The Winners List has been Updated on Page 1.
Chuy wins the Gold Medal, with gambo in 2nd, and myself in 3rd.
The List of Cities that have been used is also on Page 1 (My second post on the thread)
Thanks to everyone who has turned my temporary boredom (and the fact that the Carmen Sandiego theme was stuck in my head for some reason) into a very enjoyable game for everyone involved.
I hope this thread has provided some nuggets of knowledge for those who have read it. I know I have learned alot from it.
Please, do not let the fact that i am no longer updating the scores preclude you from continuing to play!
Have Fun!

Thank you, Thank you.
I'd like to thank the History Channel, the Travel Channel, National Geographic Channel, Al Gore's Internet® and everyone who has ever encouraged and/or tolerated my penchant for procrastination.
This one was not for the little people. This was for the rich and privileged who have the resources to travel around the world. May we find the resources to continue oppressing everyone else for many years to come!

It's been fun. Although, I don't appreciate sharing my fourth place trophy, I certainly will with this guy Kyle. Good Job everyone!
Thanks again Super! Best thread ever on TA! I haven't had this much fun with geography since the 5th grade.
We won't let gambo and the hoar kill the thread. Super, you'll stick around and play won't you?

maybe we should start another similar thread with a slightly different premise.
smaller cities within the US?
i don't know. somebody come up with something

What about colleges and universities?
to be fair to gambo, his argument was over geography.
US cities with a population of at least 10,000? But you are able to google?
how about bodies of water but if it is a lake it has to be of substantial size. Your uncles catfish tank will not suffice
quote:No way. Some of us can find absolutely anything with two or three Google searches. That wouldn't be fun.
But you are able to google?
I don't blame Gambo for anything but feeding the beast. She and several others on here just piss me off when we are trying to have a decent game going, you know?
10000 might be too small still.
or maybe we need more than 3 clues.

50,000? 100,000?

How about this?
US cities.
50,000.
No google.
Three hints to begin, and supplemented as needed if the peanut gallery is stumped (basically the same procedure we've been using).

somebody else chime in.
