Kicking off the New Birds Eye View Contests

Last week's contest was won by milwhcky. It was Cape Coral, Florida. Over the first 90 contests, here are the tallies of the winners (some contests didn't have winners):

Mlc1us - 29
N in Seattle - 21
2cents - 8
Boss Tweed - 7
milwhcky - 6
Darryl - 3
WesS - 2
WeCanFixThisMess - 2
Don Snabulus - 1
Spokane Moderate - 1
Brian in Seattle - 1
Theher - 1
Dan K - 1
Ethan - 1
Mamba - 1
CJR - 1
Apikoros - 1

Next week, I'll be putting up the first of the 25 birds eye views for the new contest. Here are the ground rules I'm proposing - very similar to the rules now:

- Now that Blogger allows for scheduled posting, each contest photo will go live every Thursday at exactly 5PM PST (8PM EST).

- The photo will always be oriented to the north by default (unless otherwise noted).

- The first person in the comments to either link to the Birds Eye View itself or to identify the intersection or landmark wins that week. Just randomly guessing the city or town will not be enough.

- After 25 weeks, whoever has won the most weeks wins the prize. If there's a two-way tie, they split the prize. If there's a three or more way tie, the two who had the fastest solving times for any week split the prize.

Other notes:

- The views can be from anywhere in the world (and that list has expanded again).

- I will not be leaving clues in the comments.

- Sometimes, I will leave the road labels in the picture - I haven't done that yet.

I'll be away from the computer here for a few days, which is why I'm waiting until next week to start this, but please feel free to email me with any questions or if I'm forgetting something.
