Carbon Posted August 25, 2017 Share Posted August 25, 2017 I’m surprised this thread hasn’t been created by someone else yet, but it has always been a fun yet useful way (map knowledge!) to engage with one another. The idea is simple and is common in many other game forums: post a screenshot of an area within a region and other members must correctly identify where Will is with a reasonably high degree of specificity. So, replying “Great Bear Island” won’t get you a cookie, nor the right to post the next shot. Which bring me to important ‘rules’: Only the successful respondent can (and must) post the next shot, so don’t everyone randomly throw a bunch of pics up into the wind here (it’s not a screenshot thread). I said parenthetically that the respondent who answers correctly must post the next shot, so if you aren’t interested in doing so, then simply don’t reply. The shots can be challenging, but not impossible, so a shot of a rock face at 2 centimeters isn't cool. Additionally, shots should be from survival mode, not story. This kind of thread has the benefit of increasing map knowledge as well as just – IMO at least – being fun and enduring. We’ll see about that last point I guess (people seem to have me blocked here, so it might just wither on the vine). So, my first shot is an easy one to kick this off. Where’s Will?

Frosty Posted August 25, 2017 Share Posted August 25, 2017 Good idea for a game, reminds of the guess the movie by screenshot I've played on other forums Mystery Lake - Looking from Camp Office? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carbon Posted August 25, 2017 Author Share Posted August 25, 2017 Well done! I thought the crows might throw some folks off, as they aren't usually there (expired wolf out on the ice). You're up mate! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stormwolf1O1 Posted August 25, 2017 Share Posted August 25, 2017 Gotta say, I very much like this idea for a game. It's creative and helps test your knowledge of the game's geography! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mate, this is for everyone. We're doing the back and forth just to get this rolling, not trying to shut anyone out! Frosty and I will gladly take a back seat, so long as you can figure out where in the world is Will! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carbon Posted August 25, 2017 Author Share Posted August 25, 2017 Guys, this thread is for everyone...I just started it. But, if we need a decision, let's try to stick to our own captures. I think it will be more 'our own' that way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know your latest one too, but I'll let other folks guess. (Besides, I'm late for work so I won't have time to post a fresh image. ) @Carbon Thanks for starting this thread... it's fun. Time to starting taking more screenshots when I play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
