I just competed in my very first GeoGuessr tournament, the GeoBonanza, hosted by Nim, Bloom, and my dear friend ZigZag
0:07
This tournament had a $10,000 prize for first place, so I was a little bit nervous, and I'd never done anything like this before
0:14
But it was me against seven other creators. Round one was a 1v1, I was third on the list going up against PSP
0:20
And prior to any of the matches starting, people were putting way too much pressure on me. Odds right now is 63% in favor of JackSucksAtLife
0:27
He's definitely a big contender. i definitely think out of the list here i mean he's the one with the geoguessor channel why is
0:33
he doing this but anyway before the individual matches there was a warm-up game where all eight
0:37
of us went up against each other as a little bit of a practice oh wow pretty rural to begin with
0:41
why is the map set here why is the framing in the middle i'm so confused i don't know where this is
0:47
i have literally no idea why is this the warm-up game this is so difficult just go in australia
0:52
Why not? No, don't do it. Yeah, we're going in Australia. Who knows
0:57
Epic. Great start. I think I'm... Yep, that was terrible. Right, more to look at here. Okay. Southern Hemisphere. It says Rio on the bin
1:06
Do we go Rio de Janeiro because of the bin? I get... Yeah, that's the big place where Christ
1:11
the Redeemer is, right? Let's go for it. Okay, so that's to the north. Coast is to the east
1:15
Let's put ourselves like here. Okay, I'm happy with that. Yes, we're pretty close
1:21
What did they say about it? Okay, so Tenzin went to Argentina, so we definitely saw a pretty clear, like, beach area
1:27
But Tenzin decided to go inland Argentina. An interesting choice. Oh, we're off again
1:32
Man there, Adidas, no cycling. Could be the UK. It's got to be London, right
1:38
Black Cab. Yeah, we're going to London. We're going to zoom towards one of the parks
1:44
Maybe Hyde Park. Yeah, maybe there. Sure. Yeah, let's go for that
1:50
There you go. Oh, yes. I got the park. Beautiful. Closer than everyone else again. So you're
1:55
actually second closest here with Jack the Brit. We're off again. We're off again. Uh
2:00
small plates driving on the right. Looks like USA to me, this one. No huge clues though. I can see
2:07
this all looks pretty US. Is there a sun just in case it's not Australia, but I guess we're driving
2:12
on the right. So yeah, we're going to stick with US. Got a big highway there. Let's put ourselves
2:18
holiday in do they get them in the US? probably mile 100
2:23
it's in miles as well so it is US rather than Canada I don't know where to go though
2:27
we do have mountains to the south so we could put ourselves
2:32
kind of towards the middle a bit I don't really know hedge your my bets a bit ooh
2:36
oh my god I got really lucky there they're gonna expect way too much from me ow wait
2:41
Jack was a super close guest there oh no they're all gonna have
2:44
way too high expectations that went way too well ooh Oh, okay
2:49
Mukulun. Oh, this is weird. Blue plates. One, two, three, four, five
2:54
Don't really know what that means. Autohuloto. Pizzeria kebab. Hmm. Oh, this is gonna be somewhere around here
3:03
I often like to try for a Hungary. Let's maybe go Hungary, but I'm not sure
3:07
We're doing well so far, though. I feel like the pressure's rising on me. I kind of just agreed to this out of nowhere
3:13
Okay, we'll go for it. I think I'm gonna be quite far away, but we'll be somewhere in Europe. That's okay
3:18
Finland, right. Ooh, that's really knocked me far away. Hey, look who's in seventh, Oscar
3:23
Hey, it's Jack. Ooh, Jack. All right, guys. We're off again. Let's see
3:28
50. Weird Google car. Nigeria follow car, I guess, probably. The rest of it looks Nigerian, doesn't it
3:34
It's a straight road traveling east in Nigeria. I'm zooming in on Italy
3:39
Fairly big road as well. Maybe we go like here. That could maybe work
3:44
I don't know. Yeah, about there. Zoom in. It's got a bit of a dual carriage thing to it
3:47
There are buildings that actually could be it. Should we try it? Okay, up there. Where did I go
3:52
I went here. We came third that round. Not bad. Going again. We're still fourth, so we're not
3:56
leading this. That's good, though. I'm happier to be under the radar. Next one. Northern Hemisphere
4:03
Looks like a Canada, maybe. No plate there. Could be a US as well, but normally this kind of thing
4:08
like look at that big, beautiful mountain. Normally this is maybe more of a Canadian thing. I don't
4:13
know. Quite tricky. Very, very straight road. Let's go Alberta. I've been loving a bit of Alberta
4:19
recently. We're going to put ourselves up here. Let's find a bit of green. Let's go there. Yeah
4:25
All right. Where is it? Oh, nice. That's pretty good. Ah, but everyone was quite close. We got
4:29
screwed up on that first one, didn't we? There were no any. Oh, this is interesting. Hmm. Where's
4:33
this going to be? It's a photosphere, so it could technically be anywhere. Like, this could be
4:37
somewhere in China or something, but I don't know. Everyone's got darker skin, maybe. Hmm. I need some
4:43
text really, but I don't see any. Oh, I'm scared. Look at her. Trying to like line herself up with
4:47
the picture. Respect that. Pretty mountainous with a lake. The skin color is pushing me somewhere a
4:52
little bit more unusual. Like let's go Nepal. This could be terrible. There's no lake. Okay
4:57
We'll go here by this one then. Oh dear. Yeah. I've probably screwed this up, but it's where I'm
5:01
going. I think I'm going to be far away. Ooh, that's a, that's pretty rough. An ultimate round
5:06
I guess. Okay. We've got some info. Driving on the right. Philippines then maybe. Philippines
5:12
looks pretty solid, I would say. It's more specifically though, we do have some mountains over there. It does look like, um, not particularly close to any water. So maybe we just go around
5:23
here in this one. Yeah. Like over here a little bit. Let's go there. That's a bit rogue. Maybe
5:28
maybe in a bit. Why not? All right. Nice. Not too bad. I'm guessing a lot of people. Yeah. A lot
5:32
of people in the correct area coming into the final round. I need a good guest, but this is just the practice. This doesn't really matter. Whoa. Okay. We've got like an all-terrain vehicle
5:40
Fair enough. Seen these kind of rounds before and I can't remember where they are. This is the kind of thing that could be just in the wrong continent, potentially
5:46
Shall I go somewhere a bit obscure in Thailand, maybe? Maybe a Vietnam
5:52
We see it might be like a Bolivia or something. I don't know. Let's go
5:56
We'll go in Thailand. Hey, it doesn't really matter. This is just part of the practice, so I'm okay
6:00
You were there thinking. Oh, yeah, so he's looking in Brazil. So I'm going to be really far away here, aren't I
6:04
Oh, God, here we go. Okay, where is it? Let's see. Oh, nice
6:08
Not bad. Could have been worse. So I came third there in the practice out of eight. So third would win me some money
6:12
I'd be happy with third, to be honest. It'd be a nice evening's work. So the warmup went okay, but it showed that I wasn't doing as well as people perhaps thought I was going to
6:21
But that didn't really matter. It was just a practice. What actually mattered was the individual games
6:25
As I said, I was the fourth game, so I was waiting about an hour and a half for my turn
6:29
Blag won their round. Demir won theirs. Now, when it got to Sylvie and Velka's, Sylvie was actually running a little bit late
6:35
So me and PSP went up against each other instead. So here is what happened in our game. Jack sucks at life versus PSP 1G. We're starting with move. We are off right
6:45
We've got a car down there. I think this is probably gonna be a Bit rude to be guessing so quickly. Oh, there's a little deer. No, that's lovely, isn't it? That's really nice that okay
6:54
Well, I guess we go Kenya to begin with Around there. Why not? Jack is into Kenya here. It's a huge difference. They're in different continents
7:03
Mm-hmm and it ends up being Uganda. So that's three thousand points. Yeah. Oh
7:07
Oh, Uganda. I'll take that. He's trying to bait me with the high pressure early guesses
7:14
Oh my goodness. Right, read this. I'm not gonna lie, my heart's really started beating
7:18
Okay, North, Southern Hemisphere. Austral. I'll take an Austral. Let's return to the start and yze this further
7:24
Yeah, I'm glad I returned to the start because I was gonna go Australia based on Austral
7:29
But it isn't Austral, is it? This is gonna be South America, I guess. Google cards not saying anything
7:35
Let's go Peru. Let's go kind of mountainous, nice Peru. Why not
7:39
And we have a Peru lock here from Jack. So PSP gonna do some damage back here, I think
7:45
Yeah, look at that. It's even gonna be almost 3000 points. Oh
7:51
Fair. It always gets me that one. Okay, we're still in the lead though, but it has evened things up off the bat
7:57
This looks Brazilian to me. Yeah, it is. Ooh, let's try and find a phone number, an area code
8:04
Give me an area code. 6-4. So you've got the 6-4s like inward a bit
8:12
I think I'm going for it. Come on, let's win on area codes
8:16
That would be amazing. That would be like the kind of thing a real GeoGuessr player does. I anticipate the PSP will get this correct as well
8:21
This is a very typical looking Brazil. Hopefully they'll just go further. Oh, yes
8:25
I think I've won the first game. Beautiful stuff. Beautiful stuff. Yes
8:31
Okay. Stressing. I'm actually stressing. Oh, and Jack's guess is pretty good
8:36
It is good enough. Wow. Oh, it is. That's an early beginner
8:40
The maracas are out. Straight to the next one, please. Let's do it. That was crazy Look how quickly that ended Just three rounds of massive damage So our game two is going to be a no move between PSP and Jack I think both players are ready so I gonna kick it off Okay
8:55
uh, I guess Southern Hemisphere. This is our no move game. We've got yellow road markings. It's
9:02
got to be, ooh, that Peruvian pole. I was gonna say with the yellow road markings
9:07
this is South Africa. I think I've got to ignore the Peruvian pole, right? Jack, I believe his
9:11
preference is the no moving mode. He sometimes gets a bit frazzled on the moving
9:16
mode. Does it look Peruvian? Over here? Don't know. What side of the road are we driving on? We're driving on the left
9:24
So, we get out of there, we go South Africa, and we are putting
9:27
ourselves kind of there. So, it feels like Australia, but there's yellow road lines
9:33
South Africa, right? Yep. And the other countries around South Africa also do this, so it's actually going to be Botswana, but
9:39
probably pretty close to South Africa. What are they doing? Good. This is good
9:45
I'm happy with that. Okay. I think we... Yes. Ooh. It was Botswana, but that's still good
9:54
Ouch. See, I don't want to get ahead of myself because I could just get unlucky, you know. Northern Hemisphere, maybe
10:01
Driving on the right. This one I'm a bit more stuck on
10:05
Now, that could be the Peruvian pole, but it could be South Africa again
10:10
But he is driving more towards the right. And we do have palm trees this time
10:14
So we're going to go Peru. It's green with mountains to the northeast
10:19
So maybe we go like... It's not that green. Maybe we go about here
10:24
Yeah, he's guessed as well. Oh, nice. We both got Peru. Respect
10:33
Southern hemisphere. This looks like Chile, right? Mountains in the distance. Very dry
10:37
Let's go quick. Let's go about here. Why not? Could be further down
10:45
Oh my gosh. It's definitely not Norway. Yeah, it was further down
10:50
It was that blasted Argentina, but we're still smashing it thus far
10:54
Ooh, Norway versus Southern South America. This duel's almost over. Jack is destroying right now
11:02
Ooh! What is this then? Brighten the blue west, isn't it? Gonna have to use my brain on it
11:10
Okay, we don't have an Oman truck. Might be a Namibia, or it could be a UAE
11:17
But I think I want to go Namibia. So we're going to go for it. We're going to go right there
11:22
See what we think. Oh. Ah. It's actually going to be Oman
11:28
It's going to be Oman, yeah. Oman is what I thought, but I wanted to see the car blur. But it makes sense
11:33
That's a pretty typical Oman vibe. Oman indeed. Okay, yellow. Don't like that
11:39
Blue. Northern Hemisphere. Don't recognize that. This must be the US. Could be Canada
11:47
Driving on the right. Yeah, it's not Norway. It's too flat. It's gonna be US or Canada
11:52
We'll just go around here. Let's go on that. Okay, where's he thinking
11:57
Oh, no! Oh! Wow! PSP, that's huge with the multiplier, by the way
12:04
Oh, that's massive. We can still do this, though. What the hell is that
12:12
Northern Hemisphere. So confused. It almost looks like an Ecuador ballad, but it isn't
12:20
Jack's in the Americas right now, so this could... He's still got time. Do we want to go..
12:29
Let's go Colombia. Let's trust the Northern Hemisphere thing. Maybe that could make a bit of sense. Yeah
12:36
I'm gonna lands in the middle here Jack. This is not a good guess
12:39
This is not good. Oh no. Oh, he's got it. GG. Okay, I've lost that one
12:46
It was so early to begin with. We've lost that one. Even Stevens
12:49
Ho ho ho ho. It's just a one one. Look at that. Three hits
12:53
Three hits for Jack and then boom, boom, boom. Three back at him from PSP
12:57
Yeah, insane. Like, nice comeback there for PSP. Let myself down there after a lovely start
13:03
We can see that overall I've got more knowledge, I think. But I've got those classic Jack mistakes that I need to account for
13:10
Round three is going to be a moving round. And our players are ready, so I'm going to start it off
13:15
Right. So this is moving. Jack, what have you got for us, man
13:20
Bit of a disappointing ending to the last one. But he's really good at recognizing this language, which is Thai
13:25
And over here, this has got to be India, right? Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. Am I tripping
13:29
This was an Indian language. Southern Indian language. Wow, that really looked like Thai. Good quality camera
13:34
There's no backwards Ds, so that could put us out of Bangladesh. We are driving on the left
13:41
Oh, I need to really focus here, don't I? This kind of text. Let's try and find that sort of text
13:48
So we've got the lines everywhere. Maybe more this way? Oh, I don't know
13:54
A little bit drier, isn't it? Towards the middles, maybe. Okay. Okay, that's good
13:59
Yeah, there's that kind of text. That's quite a nice chunk of damage to begin with
14:04
That's going to be a pretty decent hit, actually. 2,500 for a round one
14:08
Hokunoi Golf. Quite European-looking cars there, but I don't think they are
14:13
Let's get down the road. What have we got? 85. White road lines
14:18
Hmm. What are these bollards? Oh, is it New Zealand, then? It is New Zealand, isn't it
14:24
Okay, he's not going to know that. Let's just try and guess quickly, then. Go there
14:29
Kind of in the middle of North and South Island. Well, he's in Tasmania, so I should be okay still
14:34
Yeah. Good, good, good, good, good. That's a nice amount of damage
14:39
Does he survive? Yes. PSP survives. Just don't screw it up, Jack
14:43
Right, this could be in India again. Infrastructure development. Ooh. What's he guessing so quick for
14:49
We've got a white car. We're going northerly. Let's go. Let's go towards Nepal, Bhutan
14:56
Oh my god. What
15:07
What a guess there. Wow. 5k and he wins it. That is a crazy darn it
15:13
Game three from Jack. Didn't drop a coin. Okay, we're off again
15:20
No move. Thin plate. Driving on the right. Ooh, this is a bit scary
15:24
Columbian cross. Could that be a Colombian cross? Yeah, it should be Columbia here
15:29
Ooh, I think Jack heard you. Okay, we've got to go for it for the Colombian cross
15:35
Pretty green area too. Could be anywhere. I'm happy around the middle
15:38
He's guessed there. Oh, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes
15:46
Colombian cross, shout out. Right, westerly sun. Arabic. driving on the right
15:55
A bit scary, this one. Because it could be Tunisia. Could be UAE. This is Tunisia with the follow car
16:01
It's another one where they have an escort. Could be Jordan. Should we go Jordan
16:07
The rocks? The rocks feel a bit more Jordan-y. It's a bit more in the middle, I guess. There we go
16:14
It was Tunisia. That was my chance. Actually, that's still decent damage. That's okay. Next one
16:21
Northerly Sun. Southern Hemisphere. That is Vietnam. Just guess quick. Stress him out
16:27
He might recognize Vietnamese. We'll see. Oh, no, he doesn't. He doesn't. I think I've done it
16:31
Have I done it? Yes, we've done it. I'm happy with that
16:35
That is good. I'm getting stressed, though. I'm not going to lie. Jack advances three of pretty convincing victories there in the end
16:40
Should have been 3-0. He did it in 3-1. Jack, though, just looked much more consistent, right
16:45
Yeah, yeah. I mean, that's kind of what comes down to in this game. It's that consistency over time that really gets you those wins
16:52
So I was very happy with that. I feel like I got quite lucky because PSP was just less experienced than me
16:57
but I'm not gonna play it. I'm in the semifinals, baby. And it was now Sylvie and Velkas' turn
17:02
I was watching in a lot of anticipation because whoever won that game, I would be playing with next
17:07
Now, apparently during the practice, Velkas wasn't particularly good and Sylvie is playing on bad hotel Wi-Fi
17:13
So the odds are in my favor because I think if I'd gone against one of these two off the bat
17:17
potentially I could have been knocked out on round one. Whereas I could fluke my way into the final here just because Sylvie's got bad internet
17:25
Vel'Koz is inexperienced. I don't know. I think from this, they're both playing okay
17:29
Depends how close it'll be. Yeah, look at that. Sylvie whacked out Columbia So we could be against Sylvia I scared though And she got a mushroom hat what that about so sylvia ended up winning which i don want to happen because she um overall was
17:45
a far superior competitor despite her bad internet but it was now time for me and sylvie to go up
17:51
against each other and find out which of us was making it to the finals if i can just win this
17:56
matchup, I qualified to at least second place, meaning I'd get a $5,000 prize. So let's see what
18:03
happens. Jack versus Sylvie. Here we go. Okay. Oh dear. Ski. We got a little ski. Um, let's have a
18:09
little explore. Get around here. What we got? Let's just check the sun. Northern hemisphere. I mean
18:14
ski's got to be in Europe somewhere, right? Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. That's all white
18:20
Bit confused, to be honest. Is that all white? It is. Return to the start. Let's go this way
18:26
Yeah, I don't know. The poles are just white as well. Dunno. Let's hit them with a Hungary
18:34
Or a... Let's go there. No, we're going there. Yeah, it'll be around here somewhere, hopefully
18:40
We'll see. Okay. I was going to go Croatia and I moved away from it
18:45
That's fine, though. That's okay. Jack, run country, but so close. Yeah
18:50
Good guesses there. Especially by Jack. All right, bias cast. Here we go
18:56
Okay, next one. Yellow lines. Ooh. Westerly sun. Have a little explore
19:03
Get down here. See where we can get to. Anything or nothing. Yellow road lines
19:08
Still not finding a lot. I don't know. Double yellow road lines is weird
19:12
No traffic, no bollards. Give me something. I'm wondering about like an Argentina or something
19:17
Have we checked the car? The car's not really saying a lot. We could be so far away
19:21
Go on Argentina around the green bit. We'll see. We'll see. could be really far away here oh it's brazil okay we're we're chipping away chip chip chip
19:31
sometimes you only know after the round ended what the right choice was they're very far away here
19:36
though next one oh hello australian ballad she'll know that so let's explore because i was watching
19:42
her play she knows her ballads if she can see them so we've got to try and get lucky with a sign
19:46
because we know it's australia though i guess we're just in the middle so i could go literally
19:50
in the middle in case it's per side she's dropped the guess okay well we'll just go towards the
19:56
middle let's go about there about there don't be on the other side don't be on the other side oh it was both side gg right mate okay this looks dutch danish maybe yeah danish i think i don't
20:10
know whether i want to commit let's try and get out of here have some skedaddling strasse strasse is
20:17
Going to be German rather than Danish. Yeah, we're gonna go for it
20:22
We're gonna go Germany towards Denmark would go up there lock it in. Hopefully she doesn't oh no, she's found a domain
20:28
German we made the right decision. We went very northerly because the architecture
20:33
Associating it with Denmark in my head though. That might not be entirely correct Ah
20:40
Okay, a bit of damage to me. That's fine. Still playing. Okay, this is a
20:45
Hey, New Zealand. I'm just going to guess fast and see what happens. Ring, ring
20:49
Hello. New Zealand calling. No problem. He's located. It's New Zealand, so not really too beneficial
20:55
Jack with the banana strat. W banana strat. Fair enough. Next one
20:59
Into the woods or down that way? Into the woods. Oh, hello
21:07
Why should I guess so quick? Europe somewhere? Don't know. Is she guessing so aggressively, Flo
21:12
It's pretty flat. Were we talking about Latvia? I heard them talking about Latvia pre-game
21:16
Let's go for it. I'm on about Lithuania, by the way. Don't know why I'm saying Latvia, but that's good
21:21
This is still such a close game, though. This is what we want. I mean, this is the energy we need
21:26
This is the highest quality we've seen. Sure, bloom. Lots of points remaining, and now we've got 2.5x multiplier
21:31
Yeah, she is playing well. Northern Hemisphere. Okay, I'll go this way then
21:37
Can I just have a look at some plates, please? Okay, just standard Europe
21:41
Might be an Alpine, I reckon. Not finding quite the right thing. Oh, it literally says Slovenia on that house. No way
21:56
Europe great. Okay. I'm just gonna go Austria about there. I don't know it. Oh
22:02
I think I saw an Austrian bollard at the last second. Oh, it's Slovakian
22:06
But that's still okay and the damage is catching up because it's 2.5 times now. So that's good. All right next up
22:11
Do not enter driving on let's have a look at this Slower traffic driving on the right. This is looking like the US
22:20
Let's have a look for something a bit more specific shall we as much as I don't want to
22:23
I can use my better internet to my advantage and have a little slide around
22:27
I'm just I'm doing what I can okay you get that wow we saw a church Bethel Baptist Church
22:32
And now it's just like glowing really quite beautiful nowhere specific in mind here for US or even Canada ten seconds to go
22:38
Three times damage could kill me here literally go there go there. Yep. Okay
22:45
Let's see what she thinks. She's done similar. Oh She's closer only 300 damage though. That's okay. That's okay. Let's have another one of these. Oh, right
22:59
Mmm snowy Japan. Yeah, definitely a snowy Japan. I think have Japanese doll poles here
23:04
Konichiwa these freak me out because I worry that they're a Taiwan thing
23:09
But that's got to be Japanese could go up here, but I want to play it safer. I'm gonna go I'm gonna go there
23:16
Okay You little bugger you little bugger that's quite a bit of damage
23:21
Oh, oh, oh big point swing though with such a higher That's a hit. Oh, that's a big hit Jack biting his nails so flat so orange seems pretty Brazilian
23:33
Well, that's very aggressive to be honest. Oh my god. It's actually Australia though. We might be unlucky and she could have gone Brazil
23:38
that is australian bollard right there brazilian dirt but i think it no i think it's uh western
23:43
oz it is jack makes his way to the boards she sees the balls on the spectator screen
23:52
shouldn't have guessed so quick should she it's just wow and he wins it look got the maracas out i'm doing what i gotta do you know sorry that
24:03
looked so brazilian i was really up for brazil then 10 rounds that was by the way guys very good
24:08
game. Yeah, that's insane. Yeah, good opening. Well, uh, Sylvia has proven to be pretty strong at no move, and
24:14
lucky for her, that's what we're moving into now, so let's just start the second round. Alright, here we go
24:18
next game. So this is the no move. What on earth is that? It's Europe somewhere
24:24
Could it be like a turkey? Is that gonna be Turkish? I don't know. Shall we go
24:29
turkey? Get a little bit exotic with it. Yeah, let's go turkey
24:33
Turkey. It's an interesting guess by Jack here. I wonder what's made him do that
24:38
I do think it's probably more mainland, but I'm feeling a little bit risky at the end of the day
24:42
So let's go for it. See what happens. Okay. Shouldn't have gone risky
24:47
Should not have gone risky. That was a rogue guess. Heavy damage. I'm just trying to keep things interesting for me and Sylvie
24:53
Okay. Hello. That's an Italian bollard in the distance. So we'll just go about here
25:00
Could be a San Marino. Should we go San Marino for the joy of it? I'm just kidding. I'm gonna go here. There you go. Oh, she's gone Albania. Oh, no. Oh, it is Albania. Okay
25:10
So oh and we have rifts here sir Sylvie. Oh Jack Jack just realized his mistake
25:16
gives her a clap he knows it He realized Convincing star here from Sylvie. That's for sure. She likes the no-move mood
25:26
Hmm respect for that, okay? So we're driving on the left this is gonna be a South Africa. Oh, she's guessing very aggressively. Okay, we'll go down here
25:36
We'll go there That's gonna have really helped me out. I needed that I really really needed that fortunately worked out fine
25:47
Sweet-ass Australian bollards. Let's just guess. Yeah, Southern Hemisphere not Turkey. Let's go
25:54
Here check the Sun Sylvie take your time over there Good, very nice
26:02
So we've got no multipliers yet, but we are in the lead still. That was good from both players. They actually got the state correct, which is kind of rare to see
26:09
Can't read that. Northern Hemisphere, apparently. I don know it so I going to have to go about here just because I not sure Not got a Colombian cross though Oh dear No Jack Oh Jack Oh no Yeah let see where it was Oh that quite a bit of damage
26:32
She's done it. Well done. It was up near second. And that's it
26:36
Oh, my. Wow. Wow. It is. So, if I'll yze a little bit here
26:42
Jack is very poor identifying languages. I think he saw the French and thought it was Spanish
26:47
Wow. Okay. 1-1. We're back to moving round three. Let's go. Okay
26:51
Okay, Northern Hemisphere. Ooh, a bit of a weird one. It is Northern Hemisphere
26:58
This is odd. So is it Mexico then? .org.mx. Yeah, we've got to go Mexico
27:03
It's quite early stages, so is it flat? Kind of. We will put ourselves towards Mexico City, I think
27:12
We've got any clues anywhere? I'm kind of having to focus a bit more now. I can't be quite as silly as I was
27:16
San Iguano. Missed it. That's good. That's very very good. Oh, that's so much damage. That's so much damage off the bat
27:27
That's really good for me. Really really good. It's not too far either. That's gonna be yeah
27:32
Rough start. Gone and wrong. Okay, that is uh, Senegal. This is Senegal
27:40
Just guess really quick stress them out. Oh, they're in Senegal as well. We've got French bollards classic Senegalese French bollards
27:47
I've gone in a bit of a safer area No, I haven't. We're still close
27:53
Still in a nice position. Northern Hemisphere. Get to something if we can
27:57
This is a hard one. Ooh, Cambodia, right? Yeah, this is a very rare Google car that you see in Cambodia
28:02
It's got the yellow stripe on it. I don't think Jack knows this one. Sylvie, maybe, but it seems like both players are opting to go for moving
28:09
Yeah, Jack about to break this bit of sound. What we got? Ooh
28:13
Jack finding a very useful sign, and Sylvie finding an almost deceptive sign
28:18
That kind of looks, um... Oh, I don't know. it kind of looks more Vietnamese, that sign, but it's not, is it? I mean, it's got to be
28:25
India. Wait, Jack's in India. He's misidentified the language. This is not how I thought this
28:31
rhyme would go, guys. I hope it's not Thailand. I think it potentially could be Sri Lanka or something. It was Thailand. Oh, where was it? It's Cambodia near Vietnam
28:43
Whoopsie. Yeah, that's silly. Okay, we're driving on the right with all white plates
28:49
Oh, that's stupid. I literally said, didn't I? All right, this is possibly Russia then
28:57
Bulgaria. That was a Bulgarian flag, wasn't it? She might go Russia or somewhere, hopefully
29:00
Jack knows every country flag, so I'm going to be pretty confident he's going to be right about that flag
29:05
Where did she end up? That's really good for me. Yep. Oh my God
29:11
If I don't win this. Of course he's closer there. Is that enough? Oh, it's not enough
29:17
Right, that's Vietnamese. That is definitely Vietnamese. She's guessing, so I may as well try and find something that points me to a direction
29:26
Not going to, though, so we'll just go in the middle. Even if I'm a bit closer, I could still win this
29:32
Didn't want that to happen. That could have been high damage if I went the wrong way
29:36
Jack still has ten times more HP. Okay, uh, Westerly Sun. Let's have a read of this
29:41
Got a little antenna there. Great facility here. This round is hard. Oh, yeah. When you're low HP you want hard rounds. You don't want easy ones. Easy ones are disastrous
29:48
What's it say? What's it say? Okay, Spanish or Portuguese. This could be a Spain to be fair. Oh, this is scary. I could be about to lose
29:57
Hanuman Tenor? Couldn't be, could it? Oh no, I don't know where it is. I might be about to lose. I said Spain
30:03
Spain it is. Zooming into the Andes, Colombia. That's what I was saying. It is Colombia. Jackson, Spain. Wait, this is it
30:09
She's gonna do it with 200 HP, guys. No way. Oh, and there we go
30:16
What a comeback. Okay. Oh, no. That's so sad. What a comeback
30:22
That was really, really impressive. All right. So our next round here is going to be going back into Sylvie's favorite territory
30:29
No move. And I think we should just kick it off here. Good luck to both players. What is this
30:37
Southern Hemisphere. Silver car. Is that... Is that Paraguay? Let's try Paraguay, something a little bit crazy
30:46
Uh-oh. Okay. Oh, dear. That's fine. It could have been a lot of words
30:53
Right, if I lose this, I'm out. Okay, there's some birds, some seagulls. Respect for that
30:57
This is probably a Sweden. Yeah, let's go Sweden or Norway. Let's go Sweden
31:07
Buy a large lake. There's lots of lakes in Sweden. We'll pick one. We'll go about there
31:10
Jack's looking at Sweden here, which has short dashes, so it won't be Sweden
31:15
Okay, she's going to Netherlands. She's switching to Denmark, so I'm losing. I need to win this or I'm kicked out, which is sad
31:20
Ooh. Nice. That's very good. I'm pleased with that. That's right. Jack doing some much better damage
31:25
Okay. I guess Northern Hemisphere. Yellow taxis. Can't remember what that means
31:37
Got no language. Uh, don't know whether to go Tunisia or Saudi Arabia
31:41
I'm gonna, no, I meant UAE. Jack, shit. No, what? It was UAE
31:46
This is such a bad guess. I mean, so is Argentina, to be fair
31:51
But Jack had this huge opportunity right there. Ooh, it was Tunisia
31:56
She's so far away. I could have had huge damage there if I'd stuck with Tunisia
32:00
Yeah, her guesses are rogue sometimes. She's very good, but then just gets, like, a bit more basic stuff totally off
32:05
Hey, I guess I'm guilty of that, too. Anyway, Northern Hemisphere, short plates, stop signs, prevent 2016, that maybe says
32:14
is that English there? Green signs, we're gonna go US, I think
32:19
Maple, could be Canadian, because of maple. We will go about here
32:25
Let's go in Wisconsin, so it's not too far away. Ooh, other side, still a bit closer
32:32
Next one, sun is in the North, Southern Hemisphere. Pretty even jewel so far
32:36
We're through to the multipliers now, so this is where we can really start to see the swings happen
32:42
She's guessed, and I don't know it. Bikes. We're going to go in Asia because of the bikes
32:47
Go Thailand. Let's hit them with the Thailand. Where did we say it was? She's done the same spot
32:53
It was northern Vietnam. Okay, that's fine. That's just a no round
32:58
Nothing happened. We go again. This looks like it could be a Uruguay. It's northern hemisphere, though
33:04
I guess US, then. Not a truck, so it's not a Panama antenna. So flat. We're gonna go US
33:10
Mountains to the north Jack is in North America. Wait. Oh, oh, oh, I don't know. I don't know
33:16
Let's see what they Damn, that's so annoying. Oh I could be about to be knocked out
33:27
No, is it? Oh, it's not enough. I knew it would be for We're gonna go Russia
33:35
That's a short play. Did we say Northern Hemisphere? Yeah. Jack is in Russia
33:43
That's over. Oh my god. I mean, that's game. That's just it. She did it! It is
33:47
Wow. Well done. Incredible stuff from Sylvie. She makes it to the Grand Finals
33:52
Beats the favorite, Jack. Oh my. A game. The favorite by a ton, too
33:58
Sylvie does it from the hotel. So did I win money or not? Does this mean I'm third? Does this mean I'm fourth? I don't know
34:06
Oh, dear. So there we go. We lost 3-1 to Sylvie. I came so close
34:13
It was looking really good for me on a few occasions, but then she just had better guesses than me on the following round
34:19
She deserved it. I think she was ultimately a better player. I think if we'd played 10 games, I maybe would have won half of them
34:26
but of the four that we did play, she bested me. Even with a bad hotel Wi-Fi, so fair play
34:31
Now, that meant that I did end up ending the competition on joint third place
34:36
so I still got $1,000. Bloody Nora, I can't complain. But I was dangerously close to the $5,000 second place prize
34:43
so a little bit annoying, but what can you do? Now, spoiler alert, Sylvie and Blag went on to play against each other
34:49
and Blag did take the win, and well-deserved, because I think he did really good, as did Sylvie
34:55
as did everyone in the competition. I want to give a shout out to the three commentators, including obviously Oscar, who invited me to this
35:01
because they did a great job creating a lot of hype and commentating the matches
35:05
So it was a really fun thing to be part of. I know that I had some good guesses and also some bad guesses
35:09
but I was just happy to be there overall. It was nice to try something new
35:13
Anyway, thanks a lot for watching. I'll see you later
