    How did you get that?! I am new to this thread, is there a trick to this? There doesn't seem to be any clues at all on this one, unlike the others?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 18,037 ✭✭✭✭The Talking Bread


    ah, ok, I see GG Bridge in background!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 9,700 ✭✭✭tricky D


    Is it? I didn't see that. I know the area, was there about 2 months ago. Also did a guess the location picture of a block or two away from there on this thread a few months back. However that only got me to 'it looks very, very familiar' so sussed out Manner/Mahner/Manher/Mariner Drive from the artifacts in the map bottom left with Mariner being the most likely.

    There's also a grey X on the road up left of 'Google', so it must be a Treasure Island;)

    Pic coming soon.

    Yeah, you can see the arch clearly in background, just on the horizon as you follow the road. Otherwise it is nigh impossible unless you know the area or try figure out that "M.......r Drive clue! And I have been to San Fran three times before! Obviously not around the suburbs though!
    I was just going by the assumption you had to have some sort of distinguishable artefact to go by!

    Argentina?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,224 ✭✭✭✭jmayo


    Argentina?

    Usually less than 24 hours can't confirm nor deny country.

    But in this case since it is nearly 24 hrs I will say it is not Argentina.

    Enda1 has been closest guess so far.

    Oh for anyone into soccer ...
    This city's soccer team's stadium is a tad unusual.

    Yep that's it.
    A lovely city.

    Couldn't think of any other clue apart from soccer club.
    Their stadium has one end that is basically a rock face.

    Oh and their team lost Europa league final to their neighbour Porto in Dublin.
