    You could do a series on the other channel where you play explorer mode trying to get 25k or Gold on every country, invite other players from the country you play and you both talk about metas for that country while playing it. It would help you pinpoint, learn signs and road angles better and it would make great content!

    Fun ACW fact: according to the google doc the creators made, US comprises 4.9% of all locations which is the highest of any country. Next highest is Russia at 4.2% and then Brazil at 3.6%. Huge difference compared to the old duels map which almost definitely had less than 1% US (Canada was way more common than US for some inexplicable reason).

    What many other players do is get a routine in where you get a quick vibe(first 0-5sec), then they click that on the map and then they start moving and finding clues. like that you can never have no guess.
