Looks like it is time for a new updated list as a couple folks have now posted duplicate cities (which is fine, but a "waste" of a guess as the prize would go to whoever guessed that location first).

coinrejector: Daytona Beach FL USA and Las Vegas NV USA
nfine: Phoenix AZ USA and Minneapolis MN USA
igwt79: Baltimore MD USA and El Paso TX USA
Khromatau: Mexico City Mexico and Washington DC USA
jason39305: London England and Charlotte NC
kurdlezuit: Santa Rosa CA USA and Fallbrook CA USA
**nickelsearcher**: San Miguel de Alende Mexico and Zagreb Croatia
ijn1944: Buenos Aires Argentina and Christchurch New Zealand
**keith67**: Warsaw Poland and Budapest Hungary
Joshu-a: Madrid Spain and Boston MA USA
mcshilling: Aruba (I'll assume Oranjestad for the purpose of calculating mileage) and Las Vegas NV USA
oriole: Berlin Germany and London England
zurie: Taipei Taiwan and Bangkok Thailand


Again, folks with asterisks next to their username are currently eligible for the bonus prize(s). Want to change that and become a CCF supporter? Click here: https://www.coincommunity.com/forum...upporter.asp

Congrats on the milestone Spence. I'll pick...

Galveston, Texas and Minneapolis, Minnesota.

Have you got a nice set of dividers to figure out the winner?

Since I just noticed that London England had been chosen, can you change that place to Lima Peru?
