On the GeoGuessr, are people looking for landmarks/signs/whatever and then googling?
Yes; street signs; notices; websites on advertising hoardings. Sometimes signs in Japanese or Korean can also be in English; cyrillic, not so much. Once I ended up on a square somewhere in Russia and all I could do was turn around in circles. I guessed Siberia (there was snow on the ground), but it turns out Siberia is big.
The quality of some of the pictures is so much worse than others. When you finally find a sign and you can't read it properly, that's so frustrating!
And when in doubt, guess Australia.
For me, it's usually somewhere in South America
Australia or Brazil. If I can zoom in enough to see Portuguese, I go with Brazil. And if it looks like Middle Earth, it's New Zealand (though the sign for the Kiwi Bank helped).

Yeah, mine are Brazil. Weird.
I am just using ma brane, and I am doing pretty good! Course, I put one arrow in the ocean off Portugal, but hey...it's not very specific!
OMG you guys, I am tired and cranky and ITCHING for a fight on the internet.
So WATCH OUT is I guess what I'm saying.
Yeah, I just guessed based on what it looked like every time.
I am not a natural Sherlock Holmes, apparently.
Jesse, we can fight about flatware or olives! You decide!
