Guess These Locations and Win the SBD Rewards From This Post (2nd Edition)

donkeypong (75) in contest • 7 years ago

Back by popular demand, here is a second installment of this series. @arckrai won the first such challenge.

These snapshots were taken in various locations I have visited. Guess their locations by replying with a comment. The first person to guess all locations correctly (or to guess most, if no one guesses all) wins the SBD rewards from this post.

Please be as specific as possible. For example, “6. Eiffel Tower, Paris, France” rather than just “France”.

The hints are in the pictures, but it may help to know that I am based in the western United States. The contest will end when this post pays out or when someone guesses all locations correctly and is named the winner.

Hello @donkeypong, these are my guesses;

Sheepeater Cliff, Yellowstone National Park, Wyoming, USA
Football Stadium Oakland Coliseum, California USA
Juneau Alaska Mount Robertson, Alaska, United States
Yosemite National Park, California, USA
Dole Plantation, Hawaii, USA

donkeypong (75) · 7 years ago (edited)

And we have a winner. Congrats to @gamingchimp ! You are correct on all locations (except Mt. Roberts, not Robertson, but you're the only one to guess both # 1 and # 5 correctly). Your prize will be paid in full as soon as the post pays out.

gamingchimp (54) · 7 years ago (edited)

Yay! :D Thank you very much @donkeypong! Yesterday, when you upvoted my comment I was confused if my guesses are wrong, so I continued to do my research. I just got home and now I see that I won this competition. I just registered to Steemit, so this means a lot to me. Thanks again!

Wow. This look very nice and beautiful. Sad i cant participate, no way i can guess any of this photos. The photos look so good though, especially that of the snow, maybe is because i have a thing for snow. If i was to try a guess, i may have tried #4 as it looks like the only place i have seen and been to....lol

ebohio2008 (55) · 7 years ago

Guess is guess though. It must not be correct. Lol

Hi @donkeypong, I hope I am right with these;

Football Stadium Oakland Coliseum, California United States
Juneau Alaska Mount Robertson, Alaska, United States
Snow Path, Yosemite, California, United States

donkeypong (75) · 7 years ago (edited)

Looks like I may need to give some hints. For anyone who wants to try again, I'll accept a second entry (a new comment).

Hint 1: three of @ajala 's guesses are correct and two are incorrect.
Hint 2: The location of photo # 1 is not in California.

No idea but the photo of the snow is beautiful. Snow is always lovely to me from where I am, as we have no snow.
Good luck to the rest.

Is it ever possible to get the location of pictures uploaded online? I wish there will be a way around it. I know number 3 was taken in Juneau, Alaska.

donkeypong (75) · 7 years ago

Some people seem to have tricks for finding them. The first time I ran one of these, a few of the locations were discovered right away. That's why I tried to make this one a little harder.

Since this is my very first comment on your posts, so I would like to say that I went through your past posts and noticed that you're doing a nice job by creating valuable content. Today's post is a true depiction of what I said. Blogging in a fun way makes it more interesting. However, I would also like to mentioned here an off topic thing that came to my mind soon after I landed at your Steemit wall and that's the word ;donkeypong. What does it mean? I know what a donkey is but the latter part pong is still something I know nothing about. So, would you like to put some light on it?

Keep sharing, caring and rocking . You're seem an asset for Steemit community. I look forward to keep following your blog. Thumbs up @donkeypong!
