There are A LOT of community-run competitions that use GeoGuessr Challenges... leagues, daily challenges, one-off events, and so on. Having replays for each player in a challenge would be a great way to cut down on cheating and make it easier to confirm when someone’s performance is legit. I get that turning on replays for every single challenge might be too resource-heavy, but maybe they could be off by default, with an option for challenge creators to enable them when needed.

Highway badges for 2-digit expressways in South Korea are not being colored in properly. I was just looking for 55 on the daily challenge, and could not find any 2-digit expressways, just the 3-digit ones. When I was presented with the answer, the reason became clear: The red frill at the top is being rendered, along with the white numerals, but the background of the badge is being left transparent, making it EXTREMELY difficult to see.

It'd be helpful to have an option to only have handpicked-option maps in the results, not polygonal maps.

Don't know about others, but in classic mode I often have several maps open and suspended in Chrome, and I'd like to be able to see which is which by hovering over the tab while they are suspended, instead of having to unsuspend each one until I find the map I'm after.

When playing a single player trip, you cannot quit to main menu easily without losing progress made on the trip. You are only given the option to abandon trip (and lose progress) or resume when in the ESC menu. You can still get this behavior if you close the window or tab that geoguessr is on and open a new link. This behavior should be inherent to the game menu to begin with considering that your progress is saved when you close the tab and on reopen it lets you be in the main menu ready to resume at any time.

I really miss the city streak, as a more challenging version of country streak. Any plans on reinstalling this?

Daily Challenge: I'd like to know how I did, such as "Your rank is 1503 out of 8332, higher than 78% so far today". I was able to do that by slowly scrolling down in steps of 25 to find my score, and hitting back-arrow twice to see how many played today back on the Daily Challenge home page. But with a latest update it no longer tells me how many people have played so far. Also, it takes a long time to load the leaderboard 25 at a time to get to my low score.

Suggestion: when you change a map, explain why. A few months back, the NM map for masters was changed to Geoguessr Saturday. I noticed that it was much more rural, which led me to wonder if something was wrong with my seeds. I eventually learned via Discord about the map, which I ended up loving because it forced me to learn landscapes and vegetation. The switch back to ACW was similarly confusing. I kept wondering how I was getting so many urban seeds. So, I think it would help everyone if you explained the decision to switch maps so people know what to prioritize.

There are numerous GeoGuessr Leagues and Daily Challenges that use the regular "Challenge" feature. Some of those would like to block and ban users playing their challenges for numerous reasons (discord server ban, no alting allowed, etc.). Not everyone can create a script to remove these from leaderboards and it's also annoying seeing them on the results page too. Can you please add the ability to make a list of accounts that can't play challenges we generate? Somewhere on the account page perhaps...

Hello, I think it would be awesome if you could use the new compass and the old compass at the same time when playing a round. I like the old one because if gives me a quick view of where I am but the new one is very good for navigating exactly where certain landmarks are on the map.
