Are you south of Kintampo?
Are you south of Sunyani?
Do you mean Sunyani Circle? If so, yes. But the distance is very small (I'm basing my response on Google Maps)
I'm not sure what you mean by "Sunyani Circle", I'm referring to the city of
Sunyani that I see on Google Maps, which is about halfway north/south between Kintampo and Kumasi, and a bit to the west of those two cities.
When I Google "Sunyani Circle" I don't get any direct hits.
Assuming that we're referring to the same place, are you in Dormaa Ahenkro?
I've tried it again, and I think I have the correct Sunyani now.
Confirming, I am south of Sunyani.
I am not in Dormaa Ahenkro.
Are you south of Mankranso?
Indeed I am, in the city which contains Ghana's UNESCO World Heritage site -the remnants if the ancient Ashanti kingdom!

I am in Hammerfest! The northernmost town in the world with over 5,000 residents, and also, it sounds like the name of a hardware expo (or a Thor-fan convention, which I suppose it might have been, once upon a time, though that would be the mythological version rather than the Marvel Comics version).
Yours, Kent!
i always liked the aesthetics of the name.
okay, where am I?

*[[Jember]]
I am not in Probolinggo or in any of the cities on the list.
For the sake of clarity, I will offer the fact that Wikipedia refers to this location as a "Regency" rather than a city, but on Google Maps it looks like a city to me (it is marked by a dot rather than by a name inside of borders), so I figure it's valid for our game.
Are you east of Kediri?
(in Filipino the word "kadiri" means "yucky" or "disgusting". But I shouldn't laugh, we also have a city called Makati which means "itchy")

Yeah, at first I was googling madly to see if either Tulungagung or Ponorogo were significant, then I just decided to guess.
Okay, I am thinking of a place to be...

I am indeed on Easter Island! I've been researching it and it's not subdivided any further than that, so CMK has found me already. Over to you CMK.
I chose this because Blazes really wants to go there. Someday, someday...
It would be quite a feather in one's travelling cap.
Where am I?
Yup, these very isolated places sure make for great memories and good bragging rights.

I don't recall ever using or agreeing to the word "mainland."
Are you in Angra do HeroÃsmo?
I am in Angra do Heroismo! (which I believe is the name of the city, the island name being Terceira)
Yeah, I realized after I posted my guess that the island had a different name. It's not always easy to see the island name vs. city name on Google maps. Boy, am I glad I thought to check my assumption that you were on the mainland. You're right, you never said or implied you were.
Okay....

Are you in a nation with an Atlantic Ocean coast?
Are you in Cabo Verde, Morocco, Western Sahara, Mauritania, Senegal or the Gambia

Is your location accessible by road from Keetmanshoop?
Are you east of Keetmanshoop?
Indeed I am in the abandoned town of
Kolmanskop, which has been "swalloed up by the desert". From pictures I've seen, it's not entirely swallowed up, but I'd still like to visit it whenever I get the chance to go to Namibia.
Very interesting looking.

I am not on Rose Island/Atoll.
Are you on Swains Island?
I am on Swains Island! (there's only one inhabited village, Taulaga, so I'm not going to make you bother with that additional level of detail).
Interesting history, that place has - it's privately owned by an American family, and so was annexed to American Samoa, but Tokelau feels it should belong to them - although this feeling is not shared by Tokelau's "parent" nation, New Zealand, which recognizes America's sovereignty of it. I suppose if Tokelau ever becomes independent, this could become more of an issue.
Over to you, IB!
And it just happened to be the last island (in Wikipedia's list anyway). Now I'm curious as to what's on this island, and why Tokelau ants it.
Okay... where am I?
There's not much there - just a copra plantation. It seems the reason Tokelau wants it is that culturally, the native inhabitants are Tokelauan.

And yet, you just asked if I'm in Camaguey, silly. Which I'm not.
Sigh. I should have had a morning coffee.
Are you east of Camaguey?
Are you in Santiago de Cuba?
I am in Santiago de Cuba, gateway to the fascinating-looking Baconao World Heritage Biosphere Reserve!
Nice! The park exhibits look very interesting.

I'm not surprised that you got it, but I have to admit that I thought you'd try Western Sahara before Spain.
I actually almost did try Western Sahara before Spain, but I decided against it when I realized how many cities/territories of Spain were in Africa.
Good going, though.

As far as I can tell, Alfantes, Gardabaer and Hafnarfjordur are the only municipalities in the Southwest Constituency that begin with letters between A and H.
The Wikipedia page of my location says it is in a municipality in the Southwest Constituency that begins with a letter between A and H. Why don't you give me a link to your sources and we'll work from there?
I also just clicked on every entry on
this page that is between A and H and none of them are in the Southwest Constituency.
Well, that's Wikipedia for you. The Wikipedia page I'm looking at lists my location as being in the Southwest Constituency, but the municipality my location is in is listed as being in another constituency when I use this page:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Constituencies_of_Iceland
Yes I am! The fishing town of Grindavik is probably best known for being near the beautiful
Blue Lagoon.
Over to you CMK.
