I did enjoy this and clicked "like" like a good boy. I especially appreciated that you validated my comments from the previous video where I said many of those starting points were too difficult. I had tried and commented on Honolulu, El Paso, Lubbock, Dallas, and Brownsville. You got much further than I did with Dallas, which wasn't a surprise since I'm not great with the states surrounding Texas. Very impressive.
You also have a new feature for Darin (@HugeQuiz) to fix so others don't have a Barnstable situation. Is there any reason not to disable the edit box once the timer expires? I don't think the user can do anything with it at that point.
For Honolulu, HugeQuiz kind of cheats because Honolulu is the only incorporated city in the state. HugeQuiz makes an exception and you have to name 9 Hawaiian CDPs before leaving the state. The 10th ring is very thick and says "Distance Range: 225-2300 miles." The first non-Hawaii city is gettable for geography nerds. You've used it in the past. The next one or two is very difficult hard as the ring just barely touches California.
If you get out of Hawaii after starting on Honolulu the circle magically grows bigger to get to the closest point in alaska
Right. I wrote a reply on the suggestion on the previous video:
"To leave Hawai'i from Honolulu, you need to name 9 Hawaiian census designated places, of which I was familiar with two. I did it out of curiosity how the circles would work when leaving the island.
For those curious, it's a thick ring with 'Distance Range: 225-2300 miles.'
I did, at least, correctly, get the first city outside of Hawaii on my first guess, but several here would get that. The next two are hard, but maybe the second is gettable if you zoom in."
Seattle is a good starting point since it includes Alaska and Hawaii inside the circles over the rest of the 48 states
Next time try starting from Gilboa, Ohio. Big Beef Cow representation matters
I was surprised I managed to get the first city on my first guess. After that, the next several are all quite large. I'm not sure it's a particularly interesting starting point, but it's an appropriate one.
15:48 I love how you can see an outline of the USA
Next time you do one of these, turn off the timer! This challenge is hard enough without the time limit, I'd rather see you try to complete the map than run out of time
Go pack go
He was actually adding time throught. He just forgot to near the end. You can see at 12:53
Amen
@@aidenriveratime gets added automatically after certain amount of correct guesses
Didn't expect Poway, CA to be mentioned. For the record the "Pow" in Poway is pronounced like when Batman punches one of Joker's henchmen
Yeah lol I live in SD area and it was funny hearing him say it like that 😂
Start from Truth or Consequences, New Mexico
Hatch New Mexico is the home of Hatch green chiles and the Hatch green chile festival
It was named after Edward Hatch who was a fairly well known Union General. He was one the top cavalry commanders for the Army of the Tennesse under Grant. After the war, he was stationed in New Mexico and other places to oppress Native Americans.
None of that helped me when I tried El Paso after the last video. Hatch has a population of 1568. The next two rings are cities of about 30k and 20k.
And New Mexico itself is the home of meth cooking
Start in Utqiagvik, AK nextime.
I’m glad you tried my suggestion, sorry it was so difficult 😂
Hey, he got further than I thought he would starting with Show Low. Holbrook has a population of 4858. Payson's is 16, 361. Safford's is 10,129.
I found it impressive.
You should start from Satan's Kingdom, Massachusetts. That has to be one of my favorite US town names.
hell michigan
satans kingdom is wild 😂😂
Satan's Kingdom and Hell are not incorporated, so they do not work for this quiz.
Ding dong Texas
Great video! I subscribed!
Edit: I see you didn't try it in this video, so in your next video, you should seriously consider starting from Utqiagvik, Alaska, the northernmost city in America. That would certainly be interesting.
3:19 Hatch, NM is where hatch chiles come from!
In honor of it being today's Daily Washington Census Recognized Place, I must nominate Enumclaw, WA for the next starting point. 🐴
Explain what happened in Enumclaw Washington on July 2nd, 2005, in detail
Uhhhhhhh@@LilCamBoi
@@LilCamBoiit's a long story
@@sjg2024 I know, summarize it then, without leaving any “important information” out
Im surprised nobody suggested Circle, MT last time
WORCESTER MENTIONED WOOOOOOOO
You should start from Worcester as the heart of New England!
I live by Coral Springs so I am very shocked to see it mentioned in one of these most populous city videos. I think the majority of the cities you tried for that circle are bigger than Coral Springs, so the circle must have just barely missed them.
I enjoyed so much, keep doing great work man!
I think it would be fun to start in San Diego as it would start you in a corner and you get a lot of cites in California.
Bismarck, North Dakota maybe? I feel like starting center top of the map could be fun
Kent, Washington could be an interesting one
Ketchikan, AK. Once you pass the other cities and towns in the Alaskan panhandle, you'll have a circle that reaches Washington.
Umm....Hatch, NM, is where they grow the famous green chile peppers...
my hometown is joliet il, just south haha. I was hoping we would be in one of the circles but unfortunately i doubt that would happen with so many cities in chicagoland lol. keep up the good work my guy, go cubbies
Next do seattle that will be interesting
0:13 I feel honored, kind of.
Kind of?
@@Ethyro The idea didn't get him very far.
Crazy, use to live in Columbus Georgia. Didn’t know it was that big.
every thing after new York is New York until you reach Boston.
I loved these kinds of videos so much that I had to click the button!! Let's go for 50k!!😊
Just coming up with all those random town names!! My mind is boggled.
For this one, it seemed like getting the small towns at the beginning was the really hard part
I’m going to request that you start with Wawa, Pennsylvania. If starting with the home of Wally the Goose & the best gas station deli ever isn’t amusing enough, please try Intercourse, PA… ya know, for the giggles.
WAWA (my mom works for wawa)
As a person who lives in a city right next to Coral Springs, I was yelling at my screen when you got to that point
I liked the East-West coast back-and-forth. I think it would have been more interesting with Canada and Mexico included though.
NEXT TIME DO THE NYC METROPOLITAN AREA
I've tried this out of Baton Rouge, LA and Rexburg, ID. There's some really odd answers that come up in those
If you try again, you should start on the east coast with DC or New York
Love this series!
you should start in Shelter Cove, California! it'd be funny and a good challenge I think!
Starting in California just seems… mean. I LIKE IT. I mean, I did suggest ridiculously small Pennsylvania towns for a similar reason. You quickly run out of major cities and then it’s just… plains, mountains, and deserts.
@Chaotic_Pixie I would think starting in San Diego wouldn't be too bad. You'd have bigger northern California cities to help traverse past eastern AZ, NM, and western TX.
Other parts of California seem like they'd be more difficult. I doubt I could get anywhere starting in Shelter Cove. All the cities I know are over 25 miles away. After the first ring, it might not be too terrible if Fort Bragg is the choice for the second ring.
Never mind, I just tried and Shelter Cove isn't incorporated, so you can't use it for the game.
@@deepowls well, that blows. Guess one of my suggestions won’t work then. Heck! Whole cities in my state won’t work. Glen Mills, PA has a population of close to 23k, but it’s unincorporated. Fun fact. The township it’s apparently officially part of, Concord, only has a population of 17K. 🤷♀️
Altadena in California has over 44K and is unincorporated.
East LA in California has a population of approximately 120K and is unincorporated.
These are places with post offices & zip codes. They exist, and not just by tradition. How can they not be included?
@@Chaotic_Pixie, HugeQuiz has some games that use Census Designated Places, but it's easier to just draw the line for inclusion and something black-and-white like incorporation.
HugeQuiz does make an exception for Hawaii in some games like this. The City and County of Honolulu is the only incorporated place in Hawaii. However, as shown in the video, you have to name multiple Hawaiian CDPs to get out of the state. I believe the 10th city is in Alaska and the 11th or 12th is in California when you start with Honolulu.
6:40 Think about that: Dallas is closer to Illinois than it is to El Paso.
Start in NYC!
Start where you lost is a good one: Barnstable, MA
Maybe try Raleigh? Just make the outer us a super slim line.
3:24 Hatch NM must be the twin city of Chicken AK
Do more expanding circles🙏🏽
Hatch, NM is where the green chile is from!
link to previous episode? I want to watch them in order
start at enumclaw Washington
Pamplin va a abandoned town in southern Virginia that should be somewhat hard
Start from Long Beach Washington, or Astoria Oregon
Try Bottineau, ND
Do Decatur,Tennessee
Clearlake California
You should start from Miami Gardens next
Try Yellowknife, NWT, good luck
starting from Portland, TX could lead to getting Portland, OR and Portland, ME in back to back rounds
I was wondering if he would have both Portlands in the same ring this game. I didn't know that Texas had one too.
@@Lewa263 Yup, it's right across the bay from Corpus Christi, and both other Portlands are nearly equidistant from it.
Start in Neah Bay, Washington which I think is the northwestern most town in the contiguous US
You should start in Montgomery texas
Glenmoore, Pennsylvania. nothing town from my area, good luck if you do it
Start in Fairbanks Alaska
I cant say I am well traveled by any means but I'm pretty certain I could go just about anywhere and find someone who has heard of Hatch green chile. From Hatch,NM. And as a New Mexican its really the only the only thing were known for 😅
Suggestion: Ngerulmud, Micronesia
Cape Girardeau is Wild
Start from Ketchikan, Alaska
Try Duluth, MN next time
As the start of this video demonstrated, he has to be able to get the first couple rings. The second city starting from Duluth is 3531 people. I have heard of the one after that (pop 15,979), but I'm not sure I would have been able to pull it while taking the quiz.
Buffalo,Ny please
Do Yellowpine Idaho, Good luck :)
Start from Bangor, Maine!
Next time start in ashland, KY
I wouldn't be able to do this even if the circles were 250 miles.
What app is this
White Pine, MI
Omaha and Albuquerque in the aame ring 👀👀
if you do this again, my suggestion is pittsburgh
Start in San Antonio
Start angle inlet MN or key west FL
The sites of farthest north and south monuments
Yukon Oklahoma
Mad skills
The H is silent in Thibadeaux. Pronounced like “tih-buh-doe”
Homestead FL
Start in Columbus ohio

No hehe try meditation nd small town pop only 130
EL CAJON MENTIONEDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD
also poway is pronounced pow-way
LOL ARE YOU FROM EAST COUNTY? I wasn't aware he has some viewers from SD area
@@Ignaciombr yea lol, just not el cajon specifically but i was hyped when i saw east county was separated from downtown
@bjorkfan9290 LOL same, I am located in east county (not El Cajon) but that was interesting, I thought I was the only one who watched him in the area since no one in sd cares about geography but I'm glad there's more of us around here
start with seattle next time u missed washington
Demoinnnnnnnn demoinnnn demoinnnnn
7:40 also Weird Al
@hugequiz I guess you're gonna have to make it more obvious when time's up lol.
Tony Steve Thor Bruce Clint Natasha
