  1. USA is correct. Nashville is not. Denver is closer than Nashville, but still not the right state.
  2. Very good! Theophilos: 1 onbekende: 1 FOReverNShade: 1 Peggy thought she'd go check out some theme park rides at her next destination. I need the city where the park is located. http://i.imgur.com/wNXe4hx.jpg Side note: this particular amusement park is where Peggy comes from in real life.
  3. You get it right if you guess the name of the city. Chile: wrong country, right continent. San Antonio: I already said that Anchorage was on the wrong continent.
  4. Nope, wrong continent

I also had an opportunity to go through Crimea, but it would have added another two links and I was already at seven. New: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stigmatogaster_subterranea This has only one inbound link.
  7. Bingo! Score right now is Theo (1) and onbekende (1). Peggy thought she'd head down to the beach for her third location. http://i.imgur.com/n5loFQv.jpg
  8. Correct! One point for Theo Here's Peggy's second destination. http://i.imgur.com/rAjBwFB.jpg
  9. Peggy the Pink Panda loves to explore. She has been taking some trips around the world lately, but she went so many different places that she can't remember which is which. Can you help find Peggy the Pink Panda? Here's how the game works. Someone posts an image with Peggy the Pink Panda in it. (For the time being I can take care of that part.) Then everyone else tries to guess where Peggy the Panda is located in the image, using any number of yes-or-no questions. The first person to guess correctly scores a point! Your name appears in the scoresheet like this: Name xx&yy. xx is the number of puzzles you have posted, and yy is the number of puzzles you have solved. I recommend only updating both numbers at the same time, when someone solves your puzzle and posts the solution. You are ranked by the sum of the two numbers, with the number solved taking priority. Where in the World is Peggy the Pink Panda is inspired by a similar game called "Where in the World is My Little Squishy" by Mihail the Just. Here's the first image. Where is Peggy the Pink Panda? http://i.imgur.com/VA3sG36.jpg

I couldn't find any good way to get there without going through either the "timeline/lists route" or the "geography route". Let's try this one… http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Walleye_epidermal_hyperplasia_virus

Next destination: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Glass_Menagerie

    This is one of my favorite forum games. Here's how it works: the person above you posts a link to a Wikipedia article. You go to Wikipedia and click the "random article" button in the toolbar. You need to click links from that random article to navigate your way to the Wikipedia article that the previous golfer posted: the fewer links the better! It's fun and a bit educational, too. Here's an example. Suppose I'm trying to get to the article http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chinese_art. I could take the following path: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hewlett_Harbor,_New_York (random start: city on long island) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Long_Island (island near New York City) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/New_York_metropolitan_area http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boston (city in northeastern USA) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Museum_of_Fine_Arts,_Boston (art museum in Boston) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chinese_art (destination) 5 links to my destination! Not bad. Believe it or not, you can make most connections in 5 or fewer links if you try hard. (You can call 5 links "par".) If you're too busy to optimize your path, getting it in 10 is usually pretty easy. Other various rules: All English encyclopedia articles (those hosted on "en.wikipedia.org") are game.Pages that have a namespace (like "User:" or "Wikipedia:") are not encyclopedia articles and therefore may not be used.Have fun!Let's start! First destination: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brazil_national_football_team
