@@philhahn - I'm pretty sure "in british" (or any variety of English, really) that would be "didn't *use* to be". 😉 "Didn't used" is a very special grammatical form called the "overpast tensed", reserved for time travellers.
I'm so glad I started actually playing along with these. I used to just watch them because I dont have much skill in actually playing geoguesser but even with my terrible guesses its still so much more fun to play and watch rather than just watch.
6:04 "Pomnik" means statue in Polish - not sure why it's been labelled like that on Google Maps in the US, I assume a Polish person added it to the map!
I thought that Tom has his Google account set to Polish for some reason (and may not know about it 😂) but my Google is definitely set to English and it says Pomnik too. Weird…
Lol! Had to check it out as well! And it is pomnik for me too XD So I clicked on edit the location and at the top of popup window it said : "Place name in Polish (required)*"... haha right under that you can give it an english name as well. I added "Statue of John Barry". All you guys should do it as well and we will see how long it takes google to accept our suggestions! :D So I guess your polish person added the spot must be right :)
Got 23'773 pts R1: 5000 (knew right away, I've been there) R2: 3795 (gave me Romania vibes, I was wrong) R3: 4997 (seemed like Bolivia, Sucre seemed to be the most probable town vibe wise. Road direction helped for pinpointing) R4: 5000 (all the info was on that sign, just took some searching of the map for the exact location) R5 : 4981 (got into Monterrey pretty quick but dumbly chose wrong campus) As someone who was really into Geoguessr but hasn't played in a while, I'm pretty happy with this score! Love these Play Along's Tom! Keep em coming
The first one I was yelling "Philadelphia!!" at the screen because it's that place where Nicolas Cage's character goes in the "National Treasure" movie, which is basically all that I as a German know philly for 😂
Funny, my association was a few scenes from Trading Places with Eddie Murphy and Dan Akroyd, that were filmed right there at the closest park entrance and also the buildings to the right of the street straight ahead from said entrance.
i was thinking boston first, phily second so found it pretty quickly. have watched national treasure numerous times yet somehow didnt recognise it from that.
Always love to see your thought process as you go through these. Been watching for a while and always love your geoguesser even if you’re not top in the world 😂 Cheers mate
I found round 1 hilarious since I had just visited Philadelphia this summer, and immediately recognized the building. Then I recalled you had been through Philly, and it became even more hilarious.
Hey Tom! Something that I think could make your geoguessing even more engaging than it already is would be to maybe look into some of the things you were wondering about on video, like maybe Wikipedia-ing the bloke from the statue in the first round or translating the words in the South America rounds. I’m sure you’re a curious person just like the rest of us and it would stop the extra curious from having to pause the video and check ourselves ;) you researching the rounds was my favorite part of when you played the “worst disasters” map No criticism here whatsoever, love the videos and keep up the great work man
Tom, love everything you do mate. Came for the classic geo-guesser, stayed for the adventures, love love jumping back into the classic comfy geo-guesser.
Really exceptionally fun video! Loved it! The music choices, the funny comments, everything was great. Love these classic videos, you are still the best at them. Looking forward to the upcoming adventure video
For the Sucre - Bolivia one. I used to work 2 streets away on Calle Nicolás Ortiz at a bar called Bibliocafe. Stayed in the city for 4 months during a backpacking trip about 14 years ago. Absolutely beautiful city with wonderful people, 4 of the best months of my life.
Round 1 - For some reason I thought that "Barry" on the statue was the town/city name and it just felt like Canada to me. Turns out Canada has lots of towns that must be named after people... Ryan, Corbin, Cecil, Glen McPherson, Beverley, Raymond, Olga, Conrad, Oliver... Some have just outright weird names; Killdeer, Climax, Manyberries, Medicine Hat, Lucky Strike, Milk River, Legend, Chin, Skookumchuck, Hells Gate, Shutty Bench, Spuzzum, Big Muddy, Beaver, Big Beaver, Pie Island, Australian... I'm going to stop adding them, there's too many, I'll never make a guess lol
Wow what a coincidence that I went to Philadelphia for the first time 2 months ago, and the first place I visited was the old city. Really cool to see this spot show up where I just recently stood! Also no shame in completely blanking on standing there yourself, I'm sure there are a thousand things you boys experienced on that trip. Can't remember it all!
I got sensational 328m for 4999 in Sucre, Bolivia just because I simply went more "sur" than La Paz is, haha. First four rounds for almost 18K but unfortunately I have never heard about "Nuevo León" which apparently helped you so I failed to find the last one. The Croatian one was also hard, in the end well played as always.
Damn, i found a statue of Commodore Barry in Washington DC in a similar looking park, and the same Baji Industries a few hundred metres away from the actual one
Hi Tom, thanks for the challenge ! If you like this kind of NMNT (No Move No Time) challenges, you should try "A Scannable World", a perfect challenging map (each point is 5Kable). Work is in progress. Enjoy ;)
Well, I know I'm a rubbish Geoguessr player when it's only AFTER Tom finally figures out it's Mexico that I notice the glaring ALTO sign. 😂 (i.e. Not even noticing the few clues I actually know...)
Funny that you chose the same Bolivian city as I did, just because of the word Cruz 😂 I'm proud of myself for beating you in the fourth round though. The sing said Phase 2 and seeing Phase 1 and 2 on the map helped me finding the correct location. Also a perfect guess with 0 metres on the last round 😎
I always enjoy these classic style Geoguessr videos. One cool idea might be to learn the geography/cities of a particular country (one you've never visited) and then see if you can get a perfect score on it. Become a pro on some obscure country.
Me and my girlfriend watch your videos, we knew it was independence hall right away cause that is a couple feet from where I asked her to be my girlfriend! Super fun first round.
8:47 this comment is a guess for VARAŽDIN, Croatia Edit: no fucking way I've never been there, been to Zagreb and Slavonski brod though. Looked quite similar to the residential parts of Zagreb, especially with the vegetation, but knew it couldn't have been, been there too many a times to forget the mountains
It's first time I've clicked the same city as Tom without having a clue if it's correct country. Exactly 4158 points on Bolivia round, just a few streets away from Tom. Feels amazing!
I edged Tom out on this one, and as it often happens my experiences in many rounds were similar - for example, making a nearly identical guess in the second round based on vibes and a paucity of clues. I also 5ked the first and last rounds, but I can top Tom's embarrassment for length of time to find the first round. Not only am I American, but I've also been to the location, and it took me longer than Tom to find it. My only excuse is that I looked there almost straight away but was searching a slightly different spot a short way away that didn't quite match up, and then looked at a number of other U.S. Cities before coming back and discovering the right spot. I made up points on Tom by guessing the right city in round 3, but I was not at all sure of the country, let alone the city, and felt very lucky to get a good score there.
Didn't realise it was only the biggest cities, guessed a random square in Boston as I was sure it was in that city but I couldn't find it - obviously. Though Croatia was the Netherlands too. Not my finest attempt.
Did you see the Jay Foreman/Map Men episode recently where they played Geo Guesser and the loser had to travel to the place they guessed furthest from? Worth checking out for 💩s & giggles.
I found balaji industries but it was another branch that was 1.7 miles away. The sign was probably the address of the main office and the actual place was just a factory or something.
yoo that is my Alma Mater at the end I didn´t expect to see it in a random GeoGuessr video and to be fair there are some places in the metropolitan area of Nuevo Leon where there are disgustingly rich people
If I beat you, you have to play An Unofficial Street World (the ideal map for the GeoWizard): I got 22,842, easy 5K in Philly and a relatively easy one in Monterrey. Did go Hungary on the Croatia as well, and La Paz instead of Sucre (btw, Santa Cruz looks nothing remotely like that in Bolivia, a very recognizable city in Geoguessr). So I lost, but still AUSW is still waiting for you, see if you can beat Zi8gzag and GeoPeter and others!

"If I see one more Independencia, I swear to god". Very english opinion there.

I'm surprised he didn't comment on the one in Monterrey
RUclips was made for comments like these.

"Didn't used" is a very special grammatical form called the "overpast tensed", reserved for time travellers.
Tom: Able to look at a single photo and identify with reasonable accuracy where in the world he is
Also Tom: "wow, so that's a box"
The time lapse music is absolutely exceptional!
facts
We need IDs!
Agreed!
Indian one was likely the voice of Lata Mangeshka
12:25 - British man, looking at a map of a formerly colonized country: "If I see one more independcia, I swear to God..."
"Cruz del Sur" is the "Southern Cross" constellation. You will find that name anywhere south of Ecuador.
In Brazil we use "cruzeiro do sul". We even had a currency called Cruzeiro before Real.
A classic Geoguessr video from GeoWizard is always a treat. Great start to the weekend. 🙂
2:02 literally ate lunch on that bench an hour ago crazy
What did you have?
@@jetlag1488 Suspicious question coming from a seagull
For real??
I watched this video an hour ago and didn’t see you sitting there
Dang that's crazy...I've always hoped one of these random locations would be a spot I've been like super recently or somewhere I go regularly
I'm so glad I started actually playing along with these. I used to just watch them because I dont have much skill in actually playing geoguesser but even with my terrible guesses its still so much more fun to play and watch rather than just watch.
6:04 "Pomnik" means statue in Polish - not sure why it's been labelled like that on Google Maps in the US, I assume a Polish person added it to the map!
Yeah, noticed that too.Weird!
Also in Czech and Slovak
I thought that Tom has his Google account set to Polish for some reason (and may not know about it 😂) but my Google is definitely set to English and it says Pomnik too. Weird…
Germany here. It's Pomnik here, too 😅
Lol! Had to check it out as well! And it is pomnik for me too XD So I clicked on edit the location and at the top of popup window it said :
"Place name in Polish (required)*"... haha right under that you can give it an english name as well. I added "Statue of John Barry". All you guys should do it as well and we will see how long it takes google to accept our suggestions! :D So I guess your polish person added the spot must be right :)
10:48, thought Barry was casting a shadow here for a moment!!!
your football badge intuition was actually on the right track -- UANL is home to one of the top clubs in Mexico (currently 2nd in CONCACAF)
How I got it, too!
Tom you dont know how much I needed this video after a rough day, thank mate
The music is always so good, makes me laugh every time

It’s always nice to see Nuevo León pop up in a Geowizard video, greetings from Monterrey, Mexico!
That adventure video is the most anticipated video of the year.
I see we both went with questionable thumbnails for our videos today 😭 love the classic content from you Tom!
Lmao you're a legend!
🐐
You should play along with some of Tom’s games. I would like to see that
yo CG the goat!
That seems to be a theme today. :)
Yay! My favourite format. The one that got me into Geoguessr vids in the first place.
The unintentional shade against Ipswich Town 😂
10:44 looks like the google car is pleased to see you as well....
hahaha
Loooool
These types of videos are so much fun, keep doing them please!
Hey Tom, I just want to say thank you for the awesome content! I am going through a rough patch in life and your videos never fail to cheer me up.
We all love this content Tom!
Keep it coming, pretty please.
I get so goddamn excited when you post a geoguessr play along
The first one I was yelling "Philadelphia!!" at the screen because it's that place where Nicolas Cage's character goes in the "National Treasure" movie, which is basically all that I as a German know philly for 😂
You've gotta watch It's always sunny
Omg I went there just a couple of months ago go and totally forgot about that’s movie! What a shame 😢(also from Germany)
Funny, my association was a few scenes from Trading Places with Eddie Murphy and Dan Akroyd, that were filmed right there at the closest park entrance and also the buildings to the right of the street straight ahead from said entrance.
I was just in Philadelphia a couple weeks ago literally at that exact location where the camera was lol, it was fun to get one instantly for a change
i was thinking boston first, phily second so found it pretty quickly. have watched national treasure numerous times yet somehow didnt recognise it from that.
Always love to see your thought process as you go through these. Been watching for a while and always love your geoguesser even if you’re not top in the world 😂 Cheers mate
Cruz del Sud= Southern Cross( south American pharmacy) Good video 👍

Agree!
best part of Rainbolt vids is the researching tangents on random towns and stuff from the rounds
You can play along and "cheat" by googling and you'd still probably not beat him if you're like me.
I always think the same exact thing. Too lazy to look myself though😂
Yes! That’d be great! 🤞🏻
Tom, love everything you do mate. Came for the classic geo-guesser, stayed for the adventures, love love jumping back into the classic comfy geo-guesser.
Really exceptionally fun video! Loved it! The music choices, the funny comments, everything was great. Love these classic videos, you are still the best at them.
Looking forward to the upcoming adventure video
yay for geowizard content! Keep them coming :D. And enjoyed the play along
Greetings to 'Barry' and Tom 🤗
Lovely video as always, more of that please! Get in 😉

I personally love the geoguessr content, always have. Timeguessr is fantastic as well
You walked past me the other day putting the crimbo lights up. 🎄
You should sell merch T-shirts with phrases such as ‘Are we recording?’, ‘I’ve literally walked past this!’.

I'm going to stop adding them, there's too many, I'll never make a guess lol
😂😂😂 I read Shutty Bench incorrectly at first glance.
Isn't the Canadian town of Barry actually spelled Barrie? Or is there a second one?
@@jlt131 There is Barrie, Ontario, yes. As far as I'm aware there's no town named Barry though.
Great result and great video as always, Tom! Cheers, keep it up!
Darn I nearly had you until you plucked out the UANL spot! Classic GeoWizard wizardry
The one with the sign also showed the specific district name
“if i see one more independencia, i swear to god” possibly the most british sentence ever spoken 😂
I love the content coming out! Great video
It's so funny to see how much alike my thought process was. You have beaten me with your patience and perseverence. 😅
Wow what a coincidence that I went to Philadelphia for the first time 2 months ago, and the first place I visited was the old city. Really cool to see this spot show up where I just recently stood! Also no shame in completely blanking on standing there yourself, I'm sure there are a thousand things you boys experienced on that trip. Can't remember it all!
please let the next vid be the ultimate GeoDetecive
I think that statue is of Barry McCockiner
Nope it's John Barry. Irish born American Naval Officer
Whoooosh!
@@Hummerbird99 it's definitely Barry McCockiner
@@Hummerbird99 there's also a statue of him in Wexford town, Ireland!
I did NOT expected to see my university in a Tom video, caught me completely off guardo to recognize the place. So happy!
Steve Miller Band's _Fly Like An Eagle_ at 5:11 😀♫
Thanks for another entertaining vid! :)
Always love seeing Puerto Rico in your videso even though it was waaay off.
Good job on discarding it, I was about to lose it.
Hello Tommy love your content, watching from Australia 🇦🇺
Just so you know for the future when looking for New York license plates, we recently switched back to white plates
As soon as you looked at those mountains, I knew it was Monterey. They're very distinct, kinda spiky looking.
10:44 - The shadow of that Google car is definitely pleased to see you.
Always love these videos!! Keep them coming!
'That's a box!' The reason Tom is the best. Luv ya Bruv
lol we've got an adventure video AND a geo detective just cooking in the proverbial oven since summer
amazing classic geoguessr! I'd love to see you trying to get a perfect score in this format, I miss your NMPZ world record runs haha
I got sensational 328m for 4999 in Sucre, Bolivia just because I simply went more "sur" than La Paz is, haha.

The 8-bit renditions of Yacht rock songs may be better than the geography
Love these, what a fun time and so easy to do (I also do not want to pay for GeoGuessr premium)
Damn, i found a statue of Commodore Barry in Washington DC in a similar looking park, and the same Baji Industries a few hundred metres away from the actual one
amazing, best method to end my day in the chillest way possible: geoguessr with geowizard ❤❤❤

I have to say, having watched National Treasure a few times. That first one was surprisingly easy 😅
Tom you don't miss much but the phase 2 watch was heartbreaking
I mean who really expects "phase 2" to be printed google maps.
Lmao that Indian music, loved this one Tom!
I love the regular geoguessr content
Well, I know I'm a rubbish Geoguessr player when it's only AFTER Tom finally figures out it's Mexico that I notice the glaring ALTO sign. 😂
(i.e. Not even noticing the few clues I actually know...)
Interestingly, your football rambling on the last guess is how I worked out it was Mexico. There's a Liga MX team called Tigres UANL.
Funny that you chose the same Bolivian city as I did, just because of the word Cruz 😂 I'm proud of myself for beating you in the fourth round though.

And 1 year to return there....
Man, I really missed your Geoguessr vids. This is like comfort food.
Please give us more!
I was hollering at the TV on that first one! GG
I was SCREAMING Philadelphia to myself that entire first round
It's first time I've clicked the same city as Tom without having a clue if it's correct country. Exactly 4158 points on Bolivia round, just a few streets away from Tom. Feels amazing!
6:33 Tom was definitely NOT paying any attention 😂
15:45 The breakdown after seeing phase-1 and phase-2 LMFAO
Love to see some old school geoguessr back
I edged Tom out on this one, and as it often happens my experiences in many rounds were similar - for example, making a nearly identical guess in the second round based on vibes and a paucity of clues. I also 5ked the first and last rounds, but I can top Tom's embarrassment for length of time to find the first round.

I've walked through 1st round! Cool to know Tom and I have been in the same place.
"That`s a box. So we must be in Nuevo Léon, Mexico" well, obviously! 🤣
The tri-cornered hat in the first one gave me a huge clue!
I watched National Treasure so I knew it was Philadelphia. Didn't know Barry was so excited though.
As someone who has lived in said city I was screaming most of the first round. beautiful area.
Didn't realise it was only the biggest cities, guessed a random square in Boston as I was sure it was in that city but I couldn't find it - obviously. Though Croatia was the Netherlands too. Not my finest attempt.
Did you see the Jay Foreman/Map Men episode recently where they played Geo Guesser and the loser had to travel to the place they guessed furthest from? Worth checking out for 💩s & giggles.
Great fun that one - I am happy with my 22.000 ish score - did terribly at the Croatian one.
16:17 "U-AN'L. ...is, is the... official name..." 😂
I found balaji industries but it was another branch that was 1.7 miles away. The sign was probably the address of the main office and the actual place was just a factory or something.
yoo that is my Alma Mater at the end I didn´t expect to see it in a random GeoGuessr video and to be fair there are some places in the metropolitan area of Nuevo Leon where there are disgustingly rich people
If I beat you, you have to play An Unofficial Street World (the ideal map for the GeoWizard):
I got 22,842, easy 5K in Philly and a relatively easy one in Monterrey. Did go Hungary on the Croatia as well, and La Paz instead of Sucre (btw, Santa Cruz looks nothing remotely like that in Bolivia, a very recognizable city in Geoguessr). So I lost, but still AUSW is still waiting for you, see if you can beat Zi8gzag and GeoPeter and others!
I was at Independence Hall a few weeks ago so this was fun for me 😂 the big red building is where they signed the Declaration of Independence!
i was standing exactly where you spawned in the first one in july. crazy
