That's fun but the map is way too small, I was missing stuff like London by over 100km and it's not like I don't know where it is, I was there three days ago and I live only 180 miles from it anyway!

My first try.

Final score:475,892
Final level:11
Your Traveler IQ:123

I got 49 907 points on the 11 level and you need 55 000 for the next,
what did you get?

I always mess up with the African stuff and the strange ilsands like Easter island.
Level 6 with 96 or so in the first try

Does this really proves how smart you are?

No, it tells how well you know your geography. Nobody has said otherwise.

Level 6.

The hardest part is the time. Five seconds to think about it leads to stupid mistakes like hitting Africa instead of South America, when you actually know the answer.

Also stupid is the distance thing, coupled with (as mentioned before) the size of the map. Just clicking on Greece ought to be enough, without having to actually see where Athens is.

I actually forgot about the points, but I think I had closer to 48000, so I'm guessing you'd be a little ahead.

On my 3rd and 4th tries I'm getting closer to 130s and level 12, but I think by then these things start to repeat and it gets a bit unfair :p

Agreed....it would also have helped me if I hadn't been drinking

First try...Level 10 with 111.

Reaves · 11-26-07, 01:17 AM

Level 7 with IQ of 98 on the Oceania one. It's pretty damn hard when it comes to cities in south east asia as I know the nations and major cities but it gets a bit ridiculous. It's like me asking anyone not from Australia to point Nathalia or Sheparton on a map... not going to happen!

Peto · 11-26-07, 01:38 AM

If I could see the D*** thing it would be great

!

Tchocky · 11-26-07, 07:06 AM

Level 10, IQ 117

Let's try that again
