WTF - Landmarks

    Guys, I am super bored.

    So I tried to come up with a new game.

    What I've come up with is called WTF.

    Basically I'm gonna post a bunch of acronyms (this game's topic is landmarks) and you've gotta PM me your answers. Whoever scores the most corrects wins!

    Simples, but it will keep me entertained if people enter.

    There will be no 'The' attached to the acronyms if it's at the start. For example, GWOC instead of TGWOC would be used for the great Wall of China. Landmarks can include natural and man-made. Hope that makes sense.

    I'll also give the continent each is on as a little clue.

    Here we go...

    1. GGB - North America
    2. MR - North America
    3. AR - Australasia
    4. SOL - North America
    5. ADT - Europe
    6. BB - Europe
    7. MP - South America
    8. GPOG - Africa
    9. AW - Asia
    10. PT - Asia

    Sign ups close Sunday night.

    There may be a tie breaker, if there are people on the same score

    13 Heads in so far...

    I can tell you there are more than 2 people in pole position currently, so unless a miracle happens, there will be a tie-breaker in the reveal thread!
