This is a place for Reddit users to submit their scores for the official Daily Challenge (hopefully) without the results being tarnished by cheaters. This should be played as a [2] -- zooming/rotating, moving allowed but external assistance is prohibited. Feel free to leave any walkthroughs in your comments, concealed with a spoiler tag.

A bot will keep a leaderboard for the month. You'll notice two columns related to your scoring performance. The first of these columns is labeled Average and represents your average score among all games throughout the month. The second column is labeled Score and represents either: 1. The average of your top 15 performances, or 2. Your average score divided by 15 (if you have played less than 15 games). The leaderboard is sorted by Score. At the end of the month, the highest Score will be declared the winner, and the leaderboard will reset for the next month.

Why do we keep score this way? There were 3 potential options for scorekeeping:

  1. Straight Average -- flawed because a player who only plays once but scores 25000 would likely win for the month.
  2. Cumulative Total -- flawed because it unfairly favors those who are able to play every and is a severe disadvantage to those who miss even a single day.
  3. Score of top 15 -- the method currently in use, it allows for some leeway for those not able to play daily, but at the same time, it's beneficial to those who are able to play more than 15 times. After 15 plays, each new score will bump out the previous lowest score.

The Daily Challenge resets at midnight UTC, which coincides with the time that this post will go live each day. So essentially, make sure that you're commenting your score with its corresponding post.

Today's map: European Capital Cities by Patrick Barry (★★★ / 50)

Link to the challenge here | Deadline: July 10, 11.10 pm UTC


Hello, and sorry for the slightly delayed post today. Our Sunday map is a rather simple one, featuring locations from capital cities across Europe. Beware! One of the rounds starts with a photosphere, but you can get to Street View by clicking around. Apart from that, it's all regular SV. good luck!

Well done to rtlewis123 who had the only perfect scores in yesterday's Latin script-themed challenge! Not much changed in the overall classifications- which are still very close together- with fbrasseur having a narrow lead in both.


always remember to post your score in this thread if you want it to count towards the leaderboards!

Today's map: The World of The Latin Script by Kc7736 (★★ / 1k+)

Link to the challenge here | Deadline: July 9, 8.00 pm UTC


Hello! Today's map covers all the parts of the world where the Latin script is used predominantly, ruling out the countries that only use Cyrillic, the Asian scripts, etc. According to its description, the map has a bias towards urban locations. No photospheres, good luck!

Well done to fbrasseur, who won yesterday's Ōsaka challenge with 24860! It's the first time since June 24 that we had a player winning for two days in a row, the competition has truly been balanced lately. Thanks to their other placements, they have taken the lead in the July classification.

Today's map: Osaka City by Chicy Kwok (★★ / 1k+)

Link to the challenge here | Deadline: July 8, 8.00 pm UTC (July 9, 5.00 am in Ōsaka)


Hello! Today I drew a map dedicated to Japan's third-largest city (and the largest outside the greater Tōkyō area): Ōsaka, located in the middle of the Keihanshin, the large metro area in western Japan. The map only includes the city proper and not the many surrounding suburbs, you should see its borders on the map. No photospheres, good luck!

Today's map: Pohjois-pohjanmaa by Noora Sarenius (★★★ / 10k+)

Link to the challenge here | Deadline: July 7, 8.00 pm UTC (9.00 pm in Pohjois-Pohjanmaa)


Hello! We've visited Northern Europe several times recently, but Finland was one country we missed. Today's challenge brings us to said country, and it features Pohjois-Pohjanmaa, aka North Ostrobothnia, one of the country's regions. It's a pretty sizable one, and it's quite more northerly and rural compared to our recent Oslo and Stockholm games. Still, Finnish roads usually have pretty good signage, that should be of help. No photospheres (and most importantly no Autori), good luck!
