Yeah, I think this list is much better, and it has some surprises for me at the end which I’ll have to check out.

Why didn’t you tell about this in the other city discussion?

However, I personally wouldn’t consider Berlin/Maryland a European city… And you might want to change some duplicate places which are more established under their original names, like Venezia, Warszawa, Kraków, Praha and München (though I already reported them so that they gonna be merged anyway).

Thanks.

I did not mention some of the places in previous discussion because I had yet to evaluate them according to the points system.

All the best,

I don't know...

Just my opinion.

I think 1 2 3 should be:

1 Rome

2 Paris

3 London

I’ve been to 12 of them on the list!!!

Rome does well on the first two criteria on the list, but much less well on the last four.

I think Munich should be much nearer the top :-)
