Default Quiz: Globespotting


As promised, the Quiz Demon is back with the first of several non-tree quizzes. Fortunately, you don't need a ship (or even a passport ) to circumnavigate around this collage of globes (Earth and non-Earth)!

Quiz rules:
1) You may only guess ONE (1) picture (in spoiler tags, please) per 6 hour period, or after I post confirmation of correct guesses. You are still to free to mention what pics you recognize, by number only.
2) As always, you may PM with your list of guesses, especially if you think you recognize more than 12 pics.
3) Any pics not guessed after 48 hours are up for grabs by anyone.

Thank you for being considerate, Fien . Elena is going to be shot, hanged, and crucified (in that order) for guessing my favo(u)rite game (that screenshot was the only 'non-google-proof' one to boot ).

(Yet another) Great quiz! Thank you Trunkyo!

Hey, I was just kidding. I am not entitled to guess any screenshot here.

Excellent! 2,5,8,17,20,21,23,25,28 are correct (7 was also guessed correctly by inm8#2).

#24 is not correct, diego. Nice try, though.

Everyone may make another guess starting now!
