Just played 5 rounds. I wanted to see my score as ranked against others, but u didn't do that. That's like me saying here is 800 points for your post. There is no context for the score.

The context is how close you were to the correct answer, not to your peers.
Does it at least tell you how close you were for each one? (feedback so you can improve)
Yes there's a feedback page for each round explaining the pic and showing the location, also a breakdown page after every 5 round match.
Yes, score rankings are missing. There's a leaderboard for the daily, but only shows accounts you have friended.

For reference, I tend to hover around 44k for the daily. 48k is a lucky/easy day, 40k some disaster happened. Under 40 is very rare. I like to think that would be above average, but without rankings I don't know :)

indeed, this is screaming for a leaderboard and eventual Geoguesser. Sadly I do believe the reasoning models can one shot this? Maybe would take away all the fun
I got ~28,000.
