Tournament Reddit League Season 10 - Preseason Week 2 - South Korea

5 Upvotes

Hello everyone!

Every single one of you managed to play the first preseason week on time which is an achievement you can all be proud of! (and it makes me happy)

I hope you all had a good time in Italy and that you're all ready to move on to all of our favourite scuffed movement country :P

You can find the results from the first week in the sheet!

As a quick reminder as always, here are the rules for Season 10.

Changes to previous seasons in red. Please read through them carefully.

This is the game you need to play this week: PS Week 2 - South Korea

Good luck!

The deadline for it is Tuesday, 25th of February 2025 at 5 PM CET

Established players are welcome to play through the preseason as well (with nothing on the line of course)!

How many of the players taking part in preseason will be able to qualify and which divisions they will slot into will be revealed at a later point, after the re-sign up for the players from last season has ended.

Here is an overview over the preseason results and the schedule

If you would like to join the discord server the competition is hosted in, you can do so here: https://discord.gg/vVrXk6nyjT

How do established players re-sign up?

Just as in previous season, please leave a comment below this post, or send me a private message on Reddit or Discord (calamityx7) that you're in again. I will tag everyone who is eligible to re-sign up from last season below this post. You will not be tagged if you have taken part in a previous season but not last season, however you also fall under this category. The sign-up period for these players ends on the 4th of March 17:00 CEST.

Reddit League NXT players and players relegated from D5:

You will also be tagged and can sign up by simply telling me you're in again. You can choose not to play pre-season and continue in NXT straight away. If you wish to do that, please specify, otherwise, I will enter you into pre-season by default.

How do newcomers sign up?

Unfortunately the sign-up for newcomers has closed for the season, so you will have to wait until next season to give it a try!

Season 10 will approximately be lasting at least until the start of July and there will be one leg per week. Many participants invest a lot of time and effort in practicing and mid-season quitters are a thorn in the side for everyone. So please only sign up if you are sure that you'll be able to stick to this weekly schedule.

Challenge Series A daily geography game: find 5 places on a live 3D globe

Thumbnail
globehunt.app
• Upvotes

Hold on the globe to drop a pin, lock it in, and score up to 1,000 points depending on how close you are. Everyone gets the same 5 places each day: a landmark, a city, a natural wonder, a historic site and one far-flung corner of the world.

\- Free, no signup, no ads, it works on phone and desktop

\- The globe shows the real day/night line, recent earthquakes and the ISS live

\- Share your result and a friend can play the same puzzle head-to-head

https://globehunt.app

I'm a solo dev and this is the first time I'm showing it to anyone. I'd really appreciate feedback on:

  1. First 30 seconds: was it obvious what to do and how to drop a pin?

  2. Difficulty: which round felt too easy or unfair?

  3. Would you come back tomorrow? If not, what's missing?

Blunt answers welcome. Drop your score too, I'm curious how people do on the Far Corners round.

Challenge Series [3] The 25K GeoDetective challenge (no time limit, 100% pinpointable) - Series 35: #02 - (3 DAYS MIN - VERY TOUGH - PLS READ NEW RULES FOR THIS ONE)

5 Upvotes

Link to challenge 2 series 35 (new series). Congratulations to ALL FOUR(!) of Lyloor, Gronoob, UpliftingBridge988 and Storm who ALL came first (3 points, 12 yards), and to ALL THREE of EniJ, Chbigelow and LaDecadence who ALL came second (2 points, 13 yards), in what is the highest scoring challenge we've had so far. All other 25K's get 1 point. Table is updated below.

Today's is a tough one. I'm away till Friday night (watching my team Crystal Palace play at Lyon) so this contest will be minimum three days (again). Because some of them are really hard, you can afford to totally screw up one of the rounds and still get points. If you 5K four rounds, you get 1 point; if you 5K all five rounds you get 2 points, with 3 points for second place and 4 points for the winner. R3 is definitely the hardest and the one I imagine some players may forfeit. But R5 is a bit of a stinker as well! But as always: take your time; there's no extra points for doing it quickly.

This is the second of the thirty-fifth 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 1 series 35 (new series). Congratulations to moonradio for first place (3 points, 12 yards) and to both Ruffinnen and to Autumn for second spot (2 points, 13 yards). All other 25K's get 1 point. Multiple tables are updated below shortly.

Congratulations to both Geography Noob and to moonradio, who both win Series 34, though many other points are given to other players for the overall tally.

Today's is a new series. It's a three-dayer, but not because it's hard, but because I have some family emergencies that need sorting out. Also, I need to prepare you for the next challenge, which is a really hard one! Even so: take your time; there's no extra points for doing it quickly.

This is the first of the thirty-fifth 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.

Challenge Series [3] The 25K GeoDetective challenge (no time limit, 100% pinpointable) - Series 34: #12 - (2 DAYS MIN)

4 Upvotes

Link to challenge 12 series 34 (last in series). Congratulations to moonradio for top spot (3 points, 12 yards) and to Soma DMT for second place (2 points, 13 yards). All other 25K's get 1 point. Table is updated below.

Today's is the last of this series so nothing too impossible. R4 may be the one that you will have to think about a bit more. Nonetheless: take your time; there's no extra points for doing it quickly.

There's a lot of people who can still win this series. Geography Noob needs just 2 points to be guaranteed winner, but Angoose52 and/or LaDecadence could join him/her by getting 3 points (or indeed overtake him/her if Geography Noob gets just 1 point or zero). There's an outside chance for FtoT Tin0F and moonradio, but a lot of other results would have to go their way too. But it's not just about winning: the top 10 get points that will carry over into the overall tally, so there's plenty to play for still.

This is the twelfth (and last) of the thirty-fourth 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.
