Ep. 372 Europe Region by Region - Distrito de Guarda, Portugal: Another wriggly bit of Portugal
I never thought that there would be more than 400 episodes in that series. I'm still catching up. Do you have a rough idea, how many episodes there will be in total?
It's turning out to a right beast, isn't it? But I knew that after I'd made the list of regions before I started out. We're looking at somewhere between 620 to 630 episodes. I had to remove a couple of countries from the list (Kosovo and Bosnia-Herzegovina) due to lack of proper coverage, and I am still undecided whether to try and make some playable maps of Cyprus. I will decide on that before long. But yeah, the series should be running until June-ish next year. :) I have a thought or two about what I might do after that, but not sure I will do a fourth monster length series of GeoGuessing. Yet. :D
Uh oh, that 4th round was painful. Today I got "back in the business" and had time to watch TH-cam. A week from now I will be in Tromsø or probably somewhere on Senja!
Look up the definition of "wriggly" in a dictionary, and it will surely say "See Epirus". Bon voyage up north! :)
@@stormbrewer3004 haha yep! I will post photos from the trip to X. The plan is to drive to Tromsø in two days. That's quite a drive because it's almost 1400 km away. I can drive long distances without a problem, but I don't want to drive in the dark where there are a lot of reindeers.
@@oh2mp I hear you. The other day I got close to crashing with a moose, a reindeer with her calf, and a flock of sheep, all in the space of twenty minutes ...
w
Painful, but not that painful than Ukraine can often be!
A bit like stubbing a toe on a table leg instead of holding your hand on a hot cooking plate ... :D
As someone from Kristiansand this is surprisingly fun to watch
There might be some entertainment value in watching someone flailing around in your hometown, alright. :D
@@stormbrewer3004 exactly lmao.
I put a like,but the button still showing 0 😂😂
Hey, a like is a like, even if it didn't show. 😁
I’m impressed by your pronounciation of Slovenian places and words since you don’t seem to speak the language! You get the C, Č, Š, Ž correct. Well done.
Why, thank you! Back in my younger years, I went on some interrails through Eastern Europe, and after several misunderstandings in ticket offices about where I wanted to go, I figured I'd save myself a lot of trouble if I learned at least the basic pronounciations of the language areas I went through. That stuff sort is still sort of stuck in my brain, at least where the Slavic languages go. Hungarian - being the language anomaly it is - requires a mental 180 degree pronounciation turn, though.
Oh wow, you 25k'ed it really. I played two first rounds for 5k, but then I lost my patience.
I hear you! That was such a trial ...
What an familliar places))) Only one mistake,village Kotsyubynske is part of Kyiv oblast' ,not city.
Yeah, I spotted that while I was playing, and I think I made a comment in passing about it? I'll see if I can edit the map accordingly, but it'll be a bit tricky. :)
Kotsyubynske has now been edited out of the map. :)
@@stormbrewer3004Good job!Thanks
Cool. Bulgaria, very Bulgaria. That's the only thing I have to say once again :D
I totally concur. :D
I'm not sure if that area should be easy or hard, it looked it was more hard. I am quite happy that I could 5k the second round about in a minute, a lot faster than youE I have been in that region only once and spent a night a little south from Östersund.
You rocked that second round, alright. I think if I have one major flaw when playing this game, it is spending too much time looking for clues immediately around the starting point, rather than gunning it for the most information-heavy spot at once ... that said, it makes it easier for me to pin it once I know where I am. But pretty useless while I don't ... :D
Well done. Yet another proof, that UK is always doable, but just time consuming. I played again with the 2min rule, and got 5k on that most rural round :)
A bit like playing the Netherlands, except that you usually get better road info. The trouble is finding the darn road with the number you're looking for ...
This is a good video
Why, thank you! :)
You did it a lot better than me, but I again set the 2min rule. On the first rounds I was totally lost :D
2 minutes is beastly. Playing with six, I start to get stressed after three ... :D
Well played, especially the last round which looked quite miserable. I played the challenge again so that I gave myself 2 min per round. I managed to get 5k on one!
Nice one! :D
I played this challenge so that I gave myself 2 minutes per round. As you can guess my score was quite far from yours :D
lol so I see :D
näs means isthmus
I should be less quick in making assumptions thinking things mean the same in Swedish and Norwegian, then. :)
@@stormbrewer3004 Kollade svenska akademins ordbok. Tydligen kan näs även betyda långsmal halvö också, men jag tror den vanligaste betydelsen är smal landremsa mellan två större landområden, eller fastlandet och en halvö. Ed kan betyda samma som näs fast mer i kontexten; smal landremsa där man måste bära båtarna från den ena vattenvägen till den andra. Halvö kallar vi också udde. Vad heter saker på norsk? Karelska Näset och Korintiska näset är exempel på kända näs.
Harder than expected, especially the last round. I have actually been on that island but never that far. I lost some points on round 2 where I was too lazy to count clicks properly.
Nice, a challenge! My first 3 rounds went well, but on the fourth I got stalled and confused and kinda gave up around 5 min. On the last round I was too lazy to count clicks like you did :) There was really annoying third party content on the third round.
Iceland is, like Finland ... well, come to think about it, like ANYWHERE, a place you certainly don't want third party content in your game ... But yeah, Iceland is sort of simple, unless you pick the wrong direction and then stick with it because you feel you have invested so much time going that way and don't want to waste the effort. :D
You can be happy with that score. We both know that Ukraine is not an easy country.
Fairly happy with the city rounds, and those rural rounds are just ugh anyway, so yeah. :)
woho, finally a play along :D
It's a pity that the first round wasn't perfect. Nice locations and well played on the others.
Curse that barn. :D
This has really been a Portugal and Finland week which is funny that way because they are on the opposite edges of Europe.
It strange how I am running out of Finland though, while Portugal, Ireland and Bulgaria seem to have a neverending supply of regions ...
@@stormbrewer3004 yep. I googled that Portugal has 18, Finland 19 and Bulgaria 28 provinces/regions/whatever.
@@oh2mp Sometimes it feels like 57 each ...
Oh, two Finland games in a row, and wow, Knerli has beaten me! I must fix that situation :D Quite rural places, especially round 4 where I believe that I wouldn't have been any faster. Serlachius is a forest industry family and one of them, Gösta Serlachius (1876-1942) was also an art collector. A foundation after his name operates art museum in Mänttä. It is in my bucket list, but I haven't been there yet! It was quite near last month when I drove through Mänttä, but it was so late in the evening that the museum was closed.
Good to know you have some competition out there! I'm rapidly running out of bits of Finland left to play now ...
Nice. All your locations were on the most Swedish speaking area of the country after Åland. Vaasa and Jakobstad/Pietarsaari are easy to distinguish because Vaasa has Finnish speaking majority and Jakobstad has Swedish speaking majority. It can be seen from the street and road signs where the majority language is always upper. Pohjanmaa means literally "bottom's land" and of course it's true because that area is old seabed and the ground is still raising about a centimeter per year after the ice age pushed it down. Närpes is often laughed at because of their dialect (of Swedish). Many say that Swedish speaking Finns don't understand it and Swedes can't understand it either. And an original resident of Jakobstad has confirmed it to me :D (BTW, there's a mistake in the title. Probably you played Pirkanmaa in the same day?)
Ooops! You may have guessed right. :D It's fun with areas where the dialect is so unique that it is almost unintelligible to the rest of the country (or speakers of what is supposed to be the same language). The innermost reaches of Agder and Telemark have the same trait in Norway.
@@stormbrewer3004 yes I remember from your Norway series that you mentioned somewhere in Agder about their dialect :)
Nice! 25k in Portugal can always be counted as a victory!
ALways! :)
Double vowels in Finnish are easy: it's just the same sound, but longer 🙂
Roger that. They aren't always that easy to catch when listening, though. But I'll use that as my general guideline from now. :)
Well done. As I have said, I like very much of that triple city. Unfortunately I haven't explored that area very much outside of the cities. I have just driven there and away. And of course flown too.
The rebuilt old town center of Gdansk was quite cool - and veeeery touristy.
Yep. My last time was 2022 and then I was mostly hanging around in Sopot. One day I made just a quick visit to the new old Gdansk by a local train. But I had already explored it in the past.
Very Bulgaria again :)
Quite, but also very touristy.
Well played even too slowly for your own rules. It's funny how a human brain works. Every time I hear word Brandenburg, J.S. Bach's Brandenburg concertos come into my mind immediately and often the 3rd in G major becomes an earworm. That's not bad because the 3rd is my favorite of them :)
You're better off than me, then. I'd much prefer Bach to the Brandenburg earworm I get when hearing the name ... a horrible Norwegian Eurovision song from 1990 - "Brandenburger Tor". :D
@@stormbrewer3004 I may have heard it but I don't remember it. Now I must find and listen to it :D
@@stormbrewer3004 It was a very typical Eurovision song :)
@@oh2mp VERY.
That was fast! I was laughing together with you at your mistake on the first round. The rounds 2, 3 and 4 were very much what was expected because Kainuu is so sparsely populated. The last round location looked a very nice place to have a little driving break. In the beginning you were wondering about the Finnish pronunciation. It's very straightforward. Short wovels are marked with a single letter and long wovels with double. Single and double consonants work just like in Norwegian. And every letter is always pronounced the same way, there are no such things to memorize. Finnish has always the stress in the beginning of the word if there even is any stress because the language is quite monotonic. It's a nice thing for a foreign speaker that even you put the stress wrongly on some other syllable than the first, it doesn't affect the meaning and is still fully understandable. It just sounds a little weird.
I suspected as much about the vowels - just been listening to your videos for a while and didn't quite pick that up, so I was still a little confused. Now I'm not. :)
@@stormbrewer3004 I just remembered how I explained our writing system to a Swede and said that if your cities were written with Finnish way, then Göteborg would be "Jöötebori" and Örebro would be "Öörebruu". Of course we don't do that but write foreign names as they are.

stolt skåning 💪💪
Cool! You won it really.
Woop!
"Henkilökunta" in the first round means staff. The signs were pointing to the staff parking of some companies. The second round was painful. I am sure that I wouldn't have been any faster. Round 4 was hilariously familiar to me, because my sister lives just a few kilometers from that location and I was there less than 2 weeks ago 😀 The footage from there is 15 years old. Now my summer vacation is over. I drove about 3700 km around Finland and were in every region except Åland.
That's about as many kms as I clocked up when I went to Gotland at the start of this month. Brilliant place. :)

Nice. A region where I have had only a short drivethrough. You got "Finland curse" on the second round :D I believe I would have been able to locate the second round of the bonus game as fast like you.
That latter location I've been through so many times over the years, I could probably locate it in my sleep. :D
Really flat like the Baltics are :) While driving in Lithuania I have noticed that the eastern parts are more hilly. And Vilnius is a very hilly city.
I wonder how such differences in topography between a capital and the rest of the country might reflect in how they view each other ...
I have been to Berlin only once. No familiar locations were in the game :)
Me too, but only to switch trains in the middle of the night, so no experience to draw upon, really. :)
@@stormbrewer3004 I went to see some tourist attractions, but there are gazillion of them to see :)
coming close to one year of these. Crazy
And still ~290 episodes to go ...
These videos are genuinely very good the idea is very entertaining using tennis rules and going region by region through Europe is interesting and it’s pretty sad seeing how little people get to see this because I do enjoy this a lot I hope more people see these videos in the future as these are better than a lot of massive copy paste short TH-camrs
Thank you for the encouraging words! I have to admit I am a bit divided on the rather low number of viewers. Certainly, a part of me would love to share these places with more people, but on the other hand, I am quite content with having my own obscure little corner of YT. With more viewers comes more exposure and interaction, which means having to dedicate even more time to follow up on the series. Not a bad thing in and of itself, but not sure I would be able to deal with having to commit more time to my channel as a result of more traffic. (That said, my Norwegian series saw a lot more traffic, and never placed more of a "burden" on me ...) The tennis rules idea was mainly a desire to see if I could play in a different way from the previous two series, where playing the maps until I got 25K points in every single one of them was the aim. That made for a LOT of playing, as some of the maps required multiple attempts to achieve success (the worst came in at thirteen), which ofc meant the average time of playing before I could edit and publish an episode was relatively large compared to this series. So I wanted to play this as a sort of match between me and an imaginary opponent, which meant I could make do with a single playthrough of each map, and as this series will run for well past 600 episodes ... well, streamlining things as much as possible helps. I considered several scoring systems for the "matches", and decided on the tennis system, as that allows for comebacks and turnarounds even if one of the players is trailing significantly at various stages. It needed a bit of tweaking over the first 100 or episodes until I arrived at the current format, which I think I'll stick with. Sure, I could cut the round time even further and give the game an even better chance at beating me, but I do want to be able to spend a little time without stressing too much and still be able to pick up some of the vibe of the area before having to put the pin down. The rounds where I spend 15+ minutes of being lost are far more stressful, though. :D So yeah, wall of text. Glad to hear you enjoy the series, and thank you for letting me know! :)
haha i live there! namnå to be more specific, alot of places i recognise👍
Not every day you find Namnå on TH-cam! :D
Love your videos. Maybe add a play-along link in the description in the future? Will be fun and will probably boost your viewers :)
Thank you for tagging along! :) The thought of putting a play-along link in the description has flitted past my mind a few times, it's just that I have yet to remember to include it while editing/posting. I tend to record in batches of two or more weeks worth of episodes at a time, so it's been lost in the process so far. I will see about including links by and by, hopefully before the end of July. Good suggestion! :)

The last round was quite a surprise. I am sure I would have clicked the same point like you. Iceland is interesting to play, because the locations can be very easy with good signing or then very hard when you're dropped to a straight road in the middle of nowhere. And the language... it's very interesting too.
Always good fun to read Icelandic and figure out what actually still means the same in Norwegian and not ... that last round, well I've had a few of those in the past, including one in one of those many tries to get a perfect score in Porsanger. :)
@@stormbrewer3004 very often just add -ur to the end of a Norwegian word, change d:s to ð:s and it's Icelandic :D
@@oh2mp That's scarily accurate. Or just speak like there's a hair on the tip of your tongue.
Hungary isn't always that hard, and this was a proof of it. And bonus round!
There will be more of those! :)
You can be fairly happy with that score like you said in the end. Turkey is Turkey.
Anything that tastes vaguely of success is a victory in Turkey. :)
That first round was totally crazy guess, but then of course there was a ski resort. Funnily I remembered some of those location views, eg. that last round roundabout in bonus game, but I didn't remember where exactly they are.
Given how I fared on the slopes of Bormio, Finland and Tirol (was it?) earlier in the series, I was WELL pleased with that first round here. :D
Nice. Those outskirts of bigger cities are always like two bladed swords. The locations can be easy or really hard.
Suburbs are killers. Especially in Ireland and the UK. All those labyrinthine estates ...
