Exactly! I think I did the same Arkansas detour that you did.

burned again by direction. Kansas is south of Neb, not SE, centers be damned. No excuse for picking Arkansas next except it would be interesting to pick it correctly after yesterdayâs fiasco, and I wasnât sure they didnât touch

Worldle was mostly me (initial guess by my son), where takens were my son.

Yeah, Iâm pretty sure that didnât do this before. The centers of both states are much closer to north-south than northwest-southeast.
Missed a triple by 5050 wtus.

Definitely should have been a 3, but confused by 67 miles south of Italy, until I realized Italy must be more than 134 miles north to south, hence enclave

Missed triple due to wtus As an RC I wasnât about to miss a pic of HQ
Triple today thanks to an article on Dragon Blood trees on the island of Socatra on bbc travel, iirc

Just hoping to be close on guess 3. Got very close

Triple today, even if we define those a little differently.

Got them in 1 guess, 2 guesses, 1 guess.
Perhaps if I had given wheretaken global more thought before my first guess I could have hit the trifecta

:swear: Got to STANs with guess 3, but didnât guess the right one
:SWEAR: Guessing procedure getting much tougher, because the search feature (typing some letters in the answer space) now only only searches for the start of a word. So couldnât use STAN to find the STANs. Not the reason I didnât get it right. I did remember Afghanistan and Uzbekistan and Kazakhstan on my own, but I thought it wasnât Afghanistan (I was right) or Uzbekistan (I was wrong). Then took time to scroll thru list to find STANs I thought were more likely.

Do I have the record for fewest total miles wrong and lowest average miles wrong when first guess is not right? 21 miles.
#WhereTakenâ:us: #346 2/6
A first guess that borders and a second guess right canât be beaten for âfor fewest total miles wrong and lowest average miles wrong when first guess is not rightâ, but Iâm sure itâs been achieved many times, including by me before

Got all 3 today.
I also noted you could no longer type STAN to get all the countries that end in Stan. I felt certain the answer was not Afghanistan, Pakistan, or Kazakhstan. I did guess an incorrect stan first, but it was close enough that I knew my hunch was correct and I had to run through the remaining stans.
The wheretaken global was a gimme today if you looked closely

In the nick of time.
