- Eager to bounce straight back from what was a promising but ultimately mediocre first (good) attempt, I dived straight back in and had a few more attempts. This, after a couple of hours of trying, was the magnificent result.

"There's this place in Montenegro that I think it could be" ... absolute beast
When I saw the name "Hotel Teuta" I thought the Balkans-Adriatic coast. Teuta was the pirate Queen of the Illirians. So I was thinking maybe somewhere around Albania or Croatia. But he was so quick to go inbetween, into Montenegro and right at the correct bay.

School children should play this game in geography class in school! Seems like a really fun way to get familiar with the cultural, linguistic, architectural and geographical differences of places around the globe.
I’m from the US, and most people’s map skills are really lacking here. I would guess that it’s because the US is fairly large and diverse compared to other developed nations, so most Americans don’t feel the need to leave or learn about far away places. It’s very unfortunate.
absolutely true
that and the education system
Why would they ever do that
No fun is allowed
Why is it unfortunate?
@@jackjack4412 it's unfortunate because Americans are ignorant about the world. One of my classmates last year could barely point to the US on a map and didn't know anywhere else. Granted, he was obviously not the norm but it's not that uncommon
Hi Tom, in that Philippines round, "Brgy." is abbreviation for "barangay" (ba-RANG-guy), which is sort of like an administrative zone of a city (in your case, Gapan City). So you were in the barangay named Mahipon. "Purok" is an even smaller subdivision of each barangay.
Incredible job finding it so quickly!
I was about to say this, he's ran into it many times before actually! very useful to know
Good tips bro, cheers.
Thanks for the tips and translations. Are these zones usually named after a bigger city nearby or do they have arbitrary names?
@@PkPvre arbitrary; in a big city, they can be thought of as neighbourhoods or suburbs, much like the boroughs of NYC. In Tom's round, each barangay is more like a village/town, and Mahipon is just one small barangay among 23 others (according to Wiki) that belongs to Gapan City.
I grew up in a big city in the Philippines (I've since emigrated), so many details I'm not too sure about anymore, but I think this is how it is in general.
@@PkPvre in some cases they are numbered but generally they are just given arbitrary names, as a district of the city.
Lost my absolute shit when he was like lemme just look at this place in Montenegro, think it could be here, oh yeah, yep here it is. Tom you’re incredible keep it up

San Juan is not a place, it’s a brand of eggs.
“Huevo San Juan”. Huevo = Egg
Velasco is not a place, it’s the name of the person who wants to run for governor or whatever in the city or state.
It doesn’t say güeto.
It says Güero, it’s like an informal way to say white in Spanish, (a person with pale skin).
This man has an awesome knowledge of the fucking globe omfl.
Im from northern us, and the san juan islands are a place. However, they are between canada and us so i dont think they would have anyone running a car shop on them
@@jacobm7002 San Juan is just St. John in Spanish.
Do you know where does the word guero come from? In our dialect (Tunisia - North Africa) we say "guerra" to mean European or white in general but I don't know where that comes from.
I'm thinking maybe it comes from the war (Guerra in Italian) that the Europeans brought to North Africa (WW2)

@@Cheesesticks-1 no it was just an easy guess. Are you his number one hater? You comment everywhere
@@gregorB92 when he is submitting the scores to be judged against other people it goes past being harmless fun.
He, like I have said many times is extremely good at the game, and aside from these few times where he cheats (and it is easily proven) he does really well, and it's entertaining to watch. If he's just playing on his own that's fine, but he is submitting these scores to a leader board and that being taken into consideration makes this video direct evidence and doesn't look good on him. It's fine to cheat in a single player game, but when you involve others it makes everything different.
He could most likely legitimately get these scores based on other things I've seen from him, but the fact that he did cheat here, and he most certainly did. Is disgusting.

Love this guy, no tricks no looking at posts or little details in the way google mapped a place just a knowledgeable, well traveled guy playing the game as intended
”There’s a place in montenegro that comes into my mind” please explain to me how that would be possible. There’s a million places with two bridges and a landscape like that.
I’m fuckin saying I would love a explanation
My guess as someone who has watched a lot of his videos and tends to play along with him to try to guess (And I've gotten pretty good at it): The architecture and landscape, as well as the Slavic language, screams Balkan (Probably Croatia or Montenegro in my opinion), and it's of course coastal. What I assume here is that through all his games guessing places in the Balkans he has a rough version of the map of the Adriatic coastline more or less ingrained in his mind, and that "bay" or "sound" with a landmass sort of blocking access to it probably clicked in his head. He does this a lot where he for instance looks at a certain stretch of coast or a certain mountain range (with the help of the compass on the screen, to judge directions) and correlates that with the shape of some large and distinct geographical feature.
Within 5 seconds you can tell it's either croatia or montenegro by the landscape. And in montenegro there is a very well known bay, called Boka Kotorska. The picture shows a location which is obviously in a bay. It should be anyone's first place to look. You zoom all the way at the end of the bay and look for small tributaries with bridges, and confirm it with a street sign of the place.
He's a cheater. easy to read from his body language, and gives a lot of social cues of a liar. i hate to accuse him but things like this quote show its so fake.
