RE: 🏆 New Steemit Contest! Solve the Quiz and win 50 XMV!

You should either choose correct images or include a disclaimer that the pictures do not represent what you are looking for.
The church in the picture is the "The Parish of St. Mary’s Church" in Weggis which is clearly located at lake Lucerne (Vierwaldstättersee). Zug ist located at the Zugersee, which is close by, but not quite.
Please, if you want to do these competitions, do it right.

Hi @johnd0e, sorry about that it was not my intention to post a wrong image. To my defense it is the 4th picture on Google Images when you search for "Switzerland Zug". Proof:
https://www.google.com/search?client=firefox-b-ab&biw=1920&bih=943&tbm=isch&sa=1&ei=w2lLW4_ZLsKSmgWc37jYAw&q=switzerland+zug&oq=switzerland+zug&gs_l=img.3..0j0i8i30k1l9.8650.10749.0.10917.15.9.0.6.6.0.84.608.9.9.0....0...1c.1.64.img..0.15.645...35i39k1j0i67k1.0.XuPlAmP9BC4

The picture looked nice and I thought the lake in the picture must be the Zugersee.
So I do apologize it was my fault by trusting the top row of Google images.

But on the other hand every question was Crypto related and I even wrote a note under the picture in bold letters:

📝 Note: This village is well known to be home to many Crypto related Businesses.

And Weggis has nothing to do with crypto and no crypto related companies are based there.

You wrote in your comment that the picture is clearly from Weggis although you wrote in your answer L for Lucerne which is the name of the canton, not the village.

And the question was clearly:
"What's the name of this village, located in the heart of Europe?"

So your answer was wrong either way, I was looking for the name of the village, not the Canton. That's why I chose Zug in the first place to avoid any confusion, it is the same name for the village and the canton.

As an apology for my mistake, I transferred everyone who chose Lucerne a consolidation price of 25 XMV. Please check your wallet 🙂 Sorry about that and I promise to be more careful in the future.

Thank you very much, I appreciate your reply (and the consolidation price of course).
While I agree that Weggis is not know for being a crypto village, I stand by my answer. Zug is no village either, it's a quite nice city/town and actually the capital of the Kanton Zug. Weggis is located in the Kanton Lucerne, so I choose Lucerne as my answer.
But I will let peace be and I'm looking forward to the next competitions!

I agree, the picture is of St. Mary's Chruch in Lucerne. I made sure to check it multiple times before placing the first answer. Was kinda shocking that I lost 😔
