[Voar Tok 4]

Were you talking about the previous challenge?

[tchaos713 5]

Yes, he omitted the continent, which is North America, but I didn't get it in before the new challenge was issued...

Your right.  I have to change that.

Sorry jglei701, but I don't want to have the Florida recount fiasco!

 

This brings up a new rule. 

• If there is an error in score keeping or points awarded, I will fix the problem.

OK, back to Waldo's current location!

[jglei701 8]

US Bank Tower, Los Angeles, USA, North America

 

1.  World record for the world's highest helicopter landing pad

2.  Formerly known as the Library Tower

[Voar Tok 4]

You get points for identifying the country and continent.  However, you're in the wrong state.

[jglei701 8]

Bank of America Plaza, Dallas, Texas (USA, N.A.)

 

1) Tallest all-glass structure

 

2)  Recently (199 changed from NationsBank Plaza

[Voar Tok 4]

You have the right state, but the wrong city and building.

[Alabaster 0]

This is the Williams Tower in Houston, Texas, USA, North America.

 

1. It holds a world record for the tallest tower not in a CBD (central business district).

 

2. Formerly the Transco Tower

[Voar Tok 4]

That would be the correct building and landmark answers.

All the way across the world....

 

This is St. Basil's Cathedral in Moscow, Russia, Asia

[tchaos713 5]

Actually, that part of Russia is in Europe.

[Voar Tok 4]

I figured that location would be tricky.

[tchaos713 5]

This is the Muhammed Ali Mosque in Cairo, Egypt, Africa.

[Voar Tok 4]

You nailed that on the head, and took a substantial jump up the list in the process.

Berlin, Germany, Europe  (Alabaster already got the continent... just making sure that I get in the habit of doing the continent!)

[Voar Tok 4]

Not a bad habit to take up.

Waldo's next location will be a landmark!

[Duke87 1,070]

That is the Skyline of San Francisco, California, USA, North America.

Landmark Questions:

 

Question 1 is worth 3 points.  Question 2 is worth 10 points.

1. What building is this tower connected to?
2. What part of this tower is actually where the tower got its infamous name?

[Fischbob 9]

That would be Big Ben, in London, England, UK, Europe.

And to answer your questions:

1. The tower is connected to the British Parliament
2. It gets its name from the 13-ton bell inside the tower.

This game is fun!

[Duke87 1,070]

Looks European to me.

I'll also make a guess and say it's in Spain. Maybe Madrid.

[jglei701 8]

I'll guess Italy (Europe)  Maybe Rome?  I have absolutely no clue. 

[Voar Tok 4]

Nope, you're both on the wrong continent.  I'll give you a clue though, it's in the Western Hemisphere.

[jglei701 8]

Mexico City Cathedral, Mexico City, Mexico, North America

 

Also known as La Plaza Mayor.

[Voar Tok 4]

Yep, there is a reason why Duke87 thought that it looked Spanish.

[Fragmentation 0]

Cool game.

My guess on the latest location is Miami, Florida, USA, North America.

[Voar Tok 4]

Welcome to the game!  I like to think of this game as ST Trivia with pictures.

You got the continent and the nation right.  However, the place is not in Florida.
