  • In today's video, I'm going to be playing a brand new world map suggested by a viewer called "Pain and Suffering". This should be a tough challenge as the average score across all game modes is 5000 points. Enjoy the video :)

    Nice video, some great guesses. Very much the extremes of either 0 points or 4500+.

    Cracked guess. Played the map and its nice how you kinda learn different places that you have never seen. Very cool locations that never show up in normal Maps.

    The map description in the beginning actually says "If this map is too easy for you, try [URL]". Maybe you could also try out that map, seems crazy enough.

    “One of the only deserts that happens at that latitude” zooms out to reveal the ENTIRE Sahara and Arabian Peninsula 💀💀

    • @lukeueda-sarson6732
      @lukeueda-sarson6732 9 місяців тому +5

      The La Guajira desert is at 12 north, plus or minus half a degree, it not being very large. The Sahara is approx. 15 to 35 degrees north, so clearly different. The Arabian Peninsula does extend almost as far south as 12 degrees, so has some overlap. But note he did say "one of the", not "the only". Still, I think you could pull out e.g. Djibouti as a better counter argument to his statement - that's a better match for latitude, and mostly desert.

    • @ground.jordan
      @ground.jordan 9 місяців тому +1

      @@lukeueda-sarson6732 my petty response aside, are you trying to tell me 12 and 15 are CLEARLY different? Or are you more making the point that the Sahara is On Average further north than La guajira. because I agree, the Sahara stretches much further north. but 12 and 15 degrees are really not so different in the grand scheme of things

    • @lukeueda-sarson6732
      @lukeueda-sarson6732 9 місяців тому

      @@ground.jordan Well, yes, 12 and 15 are to my mind clearly different, especially if we are talking about a geographic feature that spans a single degree of latitude! The edges of the Hadley cells that so heavily influence desert formation are rather tightly defined. If you look at upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/6/6b/Omega-500-july-era40-1979.png, you can see the area of upward air movement that corresponds to the La Guajira desert is really pretty small!

    one thing i am doing that i feel is improving my skill at reading the compass is to try draw how I predict the road angle, river, mountains etc… one extra tip is even try drawing nearby roads that you see in the distance…i do it around 5 times a day sometimes way more when i see interesting locations

    I'm curious what sort of monitor set up you have? Do you have something special to see more in depth? It seems like you are often pointing out things I can't even see on my screen. Would love to know if you just have better eye sight then most or something we can do or buy for a little advantage. Keep up the good work, I love your videos.
