It's funny how we all started getting it at the same time. I bet we went through the same process of seeing the guy who posted Aisla Craig, ending up some place like this and then working it out from there.

Edit: or people who are actually from Scotland and know the answer anyway...

WINNER!! the plant in this photo is Heliamphora elongata, endemic to the ilu tepui and tramen massif. This photo was taken on the ilu tepui. How did you figure it out? Also, if you are interested in carnivorous plants check out /r/SavageGarden :) I also have some photos from my personal collection here: https://www.flickr.com/photos/[email protected]/

No worries, congrats on your first win!

A few tips for newcomers:

• Have an image ready and uploaded to imgur with a question in mind

• When you start a new round, don't forget the round number in the title

• Don't take longer than 10 minutes to submit your photo after you guess correctly. (Some people are very impatient here)

• Make sure you can't reverse image search with Google Images or TinEye If it can, use Paint, Paint.NET, GIMP, Photoshop or any other image editing software.

• Don't abandon your round. If you must, message the mods the answers

• Each Saturday we have a theme (today is the Simpsons)

• Have fun!

I have no idea, but in trying to find it, I came across this wacky site.

Pretty sure this is correct, though OP hasn't confirmed it. That's clearly Willow Rosenberg (Alyson Hannigan) from Buffy; her husband is Alexis Denisof, who was in Guardians of the Galaxy; it lost Best Visual Effects to Interstellar and Best Hairstyling and Makeup to Grand Budapest Hotel.

Give me 5 minutes and I'll have a link for you.

It'll use a combination of IFTT and PushBullet.

I can also write one for IFTT that sends you an email if you'd prefer that.

edit: PushBullet Notification (PushBullet is a link to the round).

edit 2: Email Notification

FYI: You'll get a LOT of notifications over the course of a day.

Hint 4 had a streetname in the background which I was trying to figure out what it could say - after a few combinations it corrected it to Avercampstraat. I searched for that on flickr and found this which had the info.

Here is an album of some SoDakZak images you can use in your image creating! Have fun! Feel free to use whatever you have available, whether that be Paint, Photoshop, or an online image editor.

Actually there are three, Trailhead Buffalo Burger, Trailhead Elk Burger, and the Trailhead Mountain Man Burger

here's the menu http://issuu.com/rockymountaingateway/docs/trailheadmenu?e=6960719/2121592

i searched for like man jogging or something. rised a similar image to find https://www.shutterstock.com/image-photo/caucasian-young-man-running-on-seacost-1464916748 and then looked at the photographer's about info

Searched for "man listening to music bridge" on Shutterstock, filtered by 20s and caucasian, and found the photo. Then I found this other photo in the same series, and saw the company was Serbian, so I searched for "Serbia white arch bridge" on Google Images.

Standret is only the last name, the full name is Myron Standret, but I'll accept it as a name +correct

Oh sorry, I didn't write it there.

No, I guessed the title of the second pic, Road kill, because with that picture it was pretty obvious (and you could confirm Road under the black you striked it with), then googled Road kill board game, then I found this site, where I could click on the different infos for the game and it sorted those which were connected to that item, so I clicked through all of Road kill's designers, artists, and under C. Brent Ferguson I found the cover pic for Captain's Log... :-)

Taktsang Monastry:

> The hike up to the Tiger's Nest can be very strenuous and you can rent a horse to bring up the mountain for about USD $10. The horse ride is a one-way trip (this is recommended if you are not very fit and may face altitude sickness) and you have to make your way down the mountain by foot.

I wonder what they do with all the horses that accumulate at the top.

i don't need the domain

hints here if needed

hint zero: use desmos to play around with things. it'll be in the form r=f(θ)
hint uno: notice that the maximum r is never greater than 1. this suggests that the function is r=sin(something) or r=cos(something)
hint dos: composition of two common functions. so either r=sin(g(θ)) or r=cos(g(θ))

No...sorry...this was way harder than I thought it would be. The answer was Comillas, Spain. Gaudi's other building in this town is El Capricho.

Found the same picture, googled the park name, got a tripadvisor page with a longer name and reviews about feeding the fish. 19 seconds too late, however.

Damn these assholes, i found the waterfall but they didn't name it! :(

Like the other reply said, that’s not really an issue. What I’d be worried about is that font search by image tools like this one exist. An filter on top of the image would solve the vulnerability.

Yes!! You got it! This is the Sault Ste. Marie emergency swing dam, located on the canal near the bridge linking Sault Ste. Marie (Ontario) with Sault Ste. Marie (Michigan). It was built in 1895 and only used once. Nice work! :)

Here was my to the answer:

Realised that it was Google Street view on a railway. Used this site: https://www.google.com/streetview/gallery/ and saw only Switzerland and Portugal had Street View on trains. It definitely wasn't Switzerland so it must be Lisboa or Porto. Found bridges in Porto on 3D maps.

I saw this book kicking around on my shelf so it inspired me for this round. Great read if you're interested in how it was solved. Not just the math either, but the politics and people behind it.

Sorry, that's a little too abstract of a connection. You had it right with the second guess but just a bit late. Also, don't forget, only one answer per comment :)

Left number obscured is 6300. Right is Elijah.

Alternatively, I note that this website http://themellowjihadi.com/2014/07/03/xm607-vulcan-b2-bomber-chariot-fire/ refers to the Vulcan bomber, widely used in Operation Black Buck, as the chariot of fire.
