Korea Finder 16-25
Welcome to Korea Finder. The way this contest works is that each week a new image is posted and the first reader to accurately describe or locate the image gets a point. At the end of the year the reader with the highest amount of points will win a Korea related book of their choice.
So who knows where this airfield is located?:

Looks like a museum… All those 1950s era jets…

Looks like it was written by a nork cheerleader…
MTB Rider, did get the correct answer. This is where the Musudan was launched from last weekend that blew up shortly after launch.
Closing in on Chairs, and no one can grumble about how I found the site this time!
Never underestimate my ability to find something to complain about. Hold on need more coffee and a smoke…
Ok back.
The Finder’s been jacked ever since the rebuild of the site. Prior to the rebuild at least we were all on the same footing, everyone knew the Finder was coming on a Friday and for the most part they were weekly. Everyone had a decent chance of seeing it relatively at the same time. Now however they aren’t weekly and when they are posted it’s at random time so it’s basically a game of “Whoever the h3ll happened to be on at huh-o
clock".Don't get me started on the principal flaw of it not so much being a contest of who took the least amount of time to find it upon seeing it so much as it being whoever can post an answer (no matter how guessy) first that fits the vague requirement of "first reader to accurately describe or locate the image " or in this week's case "who knows where this airfield is located"... Earth, it's located on Earth. So would I have won if I posted that first? It fits the stated requirement.
In any casethe Drop uses a template not designed to implement such a contest and it’s all in fun so what’s it matter in the grand scheme so quit your complaining! Oh wait, I’m the one who’s complaining… hmmm… carry on then. ❓
I said carry on. 👿
Heh wth happened in that post with the formatting? 😡
Is there some sort of clock code in html or by? Maybe it was looking for some sort of input for begin and end time.
