The moment you mentioned the second image being also from "Anttech", I knew it had to be at the same location. That BTW is near the Zero-Zero point (0 deg Longitude, 0 deg Latitude). Its a common place for geographical objects to end up at, when for some reason the coordinates are missing.

The "bad results" come from invalid lat/long data, which results in Google showing the location at 0°N, 0°E at the center of the map. It happens often enough (from various faulty software sources) that the location has been given the tongue-in-cheek name of "Null Island" (there is no land there, but there is a weather buoy).

[@blakenewall]

This map is devious. If you get 5 rounds with all wrong coordinates, even clicking on Null Island five times won't get you far above 20,000 points.

[@hinleung7502]

It might have something to do with incorrect mapping between coordinate systems, which explains the clustering around null island but also not everything in the same spot. Imagine if they are using a grid centered somewhere in india, if google displays those coords as latitude and longitude, you will basically get an india-shaped cluster around null island

[@evan-edstrom]

Came to say this. Though when he looks at them in google maps it shows the coordinates in the URL and it is close to but not exactly 0.

So I figured out that Uruguay or Argentina might use that name as well, I just went for Uruguay for the closeness. So it was a matter of tryng to find a public markets, because we have similiar buildings on Brazil with this same architecture, with the same purpose. I got lucky to find the "Mercado Agrícola" tho.

Personally, I always gets drawn to the electrical outlets myself. There is only a few different types used in the world, and they aren't too hard to learn. But they do say a lot about where one is, especially if the place has more than 1 type. The first location for an example had a type G plug but also seems to use some other types given the more universal outlets shown, so it is likely a former British colony at the very least. (however, the "correct" place is Null island, the magical place where databases places all its junk. Probably one of the better guesses for this map to be fair....) And the second one is not givning me any clues either. Third is giving so much information to where it actually is that it surely must be Null island again for it to be in this collection. However, the "Null island" ones seems like they might have gotten their location metadata swapped out for something else entirely.

I would be interested to know where the first location was. I was between Philippines and India. Ending up choosing India, only because of the British English spelling of 'Luminous', which made me think it might be India as opposed to Philippines. This is my assumption, maybe Philippines would use the British spelling as well Edit: Kept watching, it was India. I went Goa.

Do Brits and Americans spell "luminous" differently? I'm American and have only ever seen it spelled "luminous"

[@bibblybopbops441]

@@AnRuixuan Americans drop the u on every word with 'ou' pronounced in that sort of way, I assumed. So I thought American spelling would be luminos or something. I dunno, not American, just assume that if you're removing the u on those sort of words, might as well do it with all of them.

Another outstanding video Tom! I’m always so excited to watch you play this

There actually is a reason why so many locations end up in the gulf of Guinea, it has to do with coordinates. When a data point doesn't have a proper spatial reference (basically, it doesn't define where the 0,0 coordinate is located), most programmes will use the global 0,0 coordinate. And that point is directly south of Greenwich (of GMT fame), on the equator. And that's in the gulf of Guinea.

Best Geoguessr video you’ve ever made 100%

"I wouldn't wanna swim it". Next video: "I Swam 3000 Miles in a Straight Line!"

So disapointing ! It really looked like a good map from the first video

[@frankjohnson123]

Mate, if this is your worst video you're doing an amazing job. This was hilarious

[@tylerh5990]

I just knew after all the hard work with the India one that it would be glitched. I laughed so hard. Thank you for the great content. You are a legend!

He literally noticed it was the same company as the first round, knew the map wasn’t going to give you an easy one, and yet still thought the coordinates would be right 🤦‍♂️
