Seems like he could use the google API to do completely random locations.  Got the easiest one yet just now.

A- I saw asian font and a coca cola sign, was thinking china but then I saw an asian with bleach blonde hair. Gotta be japan. But what part of japan? Well there are some tropical looking plants so lets say southern? Boom, off by a couple KM

B- Put in front of the key west westin hotel.

C- Was infront of a "Ignov Vontourozich" institute or something, gotta be russia or eastern europe. Could also see a row a taxi's(russian looking) so I know it a touristy spot. The plants I could see looked pretty tropical so I guessed Odessa Ukraine aka the New Orleans of the USSR. It was actually some random town in romania along the black sea but I was only off a couple of KM.

D- This one really screwed me up. The country looked pretty developed with lots of tropical looking plants. Saw a sign for "Kangaroo Air Charters" so I assumed it was in the northern region of Austrailia....NOPE THERE IS A GOD DAM KANGAROO AIR CHARTER IN BOTSWANA.

E- Was on a road in a latin american country, no idea which until I saw a gas station with "Petrobas" gotta be brazil. But where in brazil? You could see a small river in the background and it looked like something you would see in the midwest so I picked some area in the grassland region of Brazil. Got the correct region but wrong area

Was that your first look or did you move around to find it?

If moving it was cheating it wouldn't be an option

Ya, but it's way different to move than to stay in one spot.

  I had it but had to move down the street a bit to see it.I think I've had other views where I move around a little and boom there's the same scene I got as a first view on a previous game. #TEAMFREESTYLE

WTF

Yeah, go around the corner and they have the name of the aquarium written in english on a sign

How many rounds to play a complete game?  I'm too ADD to do more than two or three.
