Link to challenge 11 series 29. Congratulations to moonradio for top spot (3 points, 7 yards) and to FtoT TinOF who came second (2 points, 9 yards). All other 25K's get one point. Table is updated below.

Today's is a mixed bunch, and it's hard to say whether any of them will be truly challenging, though R5 may take a little longer than the others. Though, as always: take your time; there's no extra points for doing it quickly.

This is the eleventh of the twenty-ninth series based on my own GeoDetective map. No moving, no time-limit (take your time!). There is always a clue somewhere that will help you pinpoint the location, some are easier than others. Feel free to leave walkthroughs in comments or ask where the clue was if you missed it, but always use the spoiler tag so as not to >!spoil !<it for others! Official coverage only.

Link to challenge 7 series 29. Congratulations to Brussels Waffles for top spot (3 points, 11 yards), and a quadruple second place tie for pearleffect, Sonny, LaDecadence and moonradio (2 points, 14 yards). All other 25K's get one point. Table is updated below.

In today's challenge, we celebrate the Eurovision Song Contest (all week). Today is about Semifinal 1. It doesn't matter if you don't follow the contest, as as far as you're concerned this is a normal challenge, with the exception that R3 is unofficial coverage as it includes a country that has no official coverage. I have checked the location etc and it is fine (though the compass may not be, but it won't matter). In each case the location is the birthtown of my top 5 from Semifinal 1 (with R1 being my favourite from the semifinal). The town name as ever will be visible somewhere. Please also note that, because all these locations are in Europe, the map is a lot less forgiving than on my usual world challenges! However, as always: take your time; there's no extra points for doing it quickly.

This is the seventh of the twenty-ninth series based on my own GeoDetective map. No moving, no time-limit (take your time!). There is always a clue somewhere that will help you pinpoint the location, some are easier than others. Feel free to leave walkthroughs in comments or ask where the clue was if you missed it, but always use the spoiler tag so as not to >!spoil !<it for others! Official coverage only, except in R3.

Link to challenge 6 series 29. Congratulations to FtoT TinOF for top spot (3 points, 10 yards) and to Brussels Waffles for the number two spot (2 points, 11 yards). All other 25K's get one point. Table is updated below.

In today's challenge, this is quite an easy one as we are preparing for some quick-fire two-dayers during next week. R5 may take the longest, but it shouldn't be too hard. But, as always: take your time; there's no extra points for doing it quickly.
