#8 (location)

#9 Chisinau (description)

#11 Portalegre ??(Generate report)

Haha, I totally saw and overlooked Boulder and Wagga Wagaa

Edit: updated my numbers since TIG edited his post up there

TIG

#12 Grass [component name] is a town in Indiana ?

DavorP

TIG, Davor is my name and a place in my country, but it is not an answer - it doesn't have an agg ( ). Others you guys guessed correctly, apart from the "Grass"

To recap:

Trondheim
Saskatoon
Osijek
Zhengzhou (texture)
Wagga Wagga [Layer]
Bloemfontein [Compo Desc]
Boulder [Material]
Visakhapatnam [Andhra Pradesh - India] = Geo-Location
Chisinau [Model Desc]
Portalegre

So you're missing two. And please, no editing posts so there's no question who got it first.

But it does [sort of] in the EN locale anyway...

TIG

( ) Bloemfontein occurs twice in the SKP - once in a component-definition's description and then in its component-instance's description [i.e. the one with '()Trondheim' appended to its definition name]...
'Bloemfontein' is a town in South Africa, but it doesn't seem to exist anywhere else - so can its 'egg' be counted twice ?

The instance.description is not user visible, but can be seen using this:
d=Sketchup.active_model.definitions['Grass_instance( ) Trondheim'] #<Sketchup::ComponentDefinition:0x0000000adb3918> p d.description "( ) Bloemfontein" d.instances.each{|i| p i.description } "( ) Bloemfontein" [#<Sketchup::ComponentInstance:0x0000000b590e10>]

You are correct.

TIG

I know we are discounting any names without a leading ( )
But as an aside, the Model Info's default font for Text and Dims is set to 'Tahoma' - which is a city is California !

I wish people wouldn't edit out their posts with invisible mod powers so you look like an idiot.

Box

Tig you are starting to sound a bit desperate with your answers.
Take a breath and picture fluffy clouds and kittens, .... then when you realise you have spent the last 12 hours on youtube cat videos wrap your mind around a different philosophical/mathematical conundrum.
By parting the Red Sea at that specific point on the coast how many Israelites did Noah actually save?

that's just how the forum software is set up.. i edit a post in the same exact way you do except it doesn't add the note..
more effort is required to add the note and i honestly never think about doing the extra steps.

i do understand your point and would find it frustrating as well.. just pointing out that if a mod edits their post, it's not like we're sitting there going "ok, i'm going to do it this way so nobody can see that i've edited'..

maybe it should be set up the other way around? a moderator edit defaults to adding the note and requires extra effort to remove the note?
idk, not really my call.

edit-
on a side note-- i've looked all over for this damn 12th egg and can't find it

TIG

I can't find #12 either...
BUT there are TWO separate entries for '() Bloemfontein' - as I pointed out.

Box mistook a simple delete for an edit.
He reported a find, with no clue as to its loaction.
I asked where it was.
He said it was in the watermark.
I looked in the Style and found nothing there.
I posted saying so.
But I was also reloading the SKP and then I found it was there - presumably something unexplained had happened to the Style my-end in the meanwhile, so it had mysteriously vanished.
So I [almost] immediately delete the post, as it was simply wrong - but immediately afterwards Box re-posted, having seen it.
So I agreed with him by re-quoting him.
I didn't think his response post looked stupid...
Had my post been up longer than a few seconds I might not have deleted it, but edited it with a correction...

Anyone can delete their own posts - it does not need super-mod/admin powers...
Mods/admins rarely 'delete' posts - the only time I'd do that is if a newbie posts the same thing twice etc...
I occasionally edit a post if it contains a glaring typo - e.g. making a embarrassing faux-pas - Penis vs Denis etc !
Now and again unacceptable posts are parked in a siding, for mods to debate at length...

Box

I didn't mean it to be a big deal and your explanation is very clear. It was just that I scrolled back up and thought wtf where did it go. And just to correct you a tiny bit, it is only possible for us to delete a post if there are no posts after it. As soon as someone replies it is locked in, we can edit it but can't delete it.
