January 28, 200818 yr Mogoso originally posted this in the Arcade and it's really good, I'm sure you will all enjoy it. http://www.travelpod.com/traveler-iq Check out the other challenges too.
January 29, 200818 yr I don't quite get how to do it? Like where do you click... god you're so technical Robski ...
January 29, 200818 yr I don't quite get how to do it? Like where do you click... god you're so technical Robski ... Just click where you think its geographic located. My closest has been 3 kilometers from a location. The object is to gain enough points to go to the next level, and so on. Speed and accurancy count, while misses will cause your downfall. I have problems with all the "stan" countries that were or still are under the soviet(russian) flag, in the asian challenge.
January 29, 200818 yr Just to be a complete <deleted>. 3rd go scored 565,355 Level 12 IQ 132. Good game that - could be randomised a bit more though.
January 29, 200818 yr First go with three incoming phone calls (put on call back) can't remember the score but level 10 and IQ 111. I have big troubles with the 'stans as well also the bluddy Aussie places are always way out apart from Ayers Rock (Ulhuru). I'll try again after a cup of tea.
January 29, 200818 yr Good game, good game (said in a Bruce Forsyth voice) Did it on my laptop though and the map was really small. Even the one'ss i knew for definate (instead of around and about) i was missing the spot by about 50Km. I'm gonna try it again on my big pc at home.
January 29, 200818 yr Author Pearl Harbour Doh! and some of the African countries, lost it on level 10 again.
January 29, 200818 yr M eyes no good, hardly see/read the map. Mite have to see if it is enlargeable. IQ, 110 This is gunna be addictable..........LOL Bad enuff being addicted to ThaiVisa.........<deleted>.
January 29, 200818 yr Haven't tried .... I'm still preoccupied with hamsters. (can this thread be linked to the other one, so that if it ever dies and gets resurrected later, people know that I am not talking about a live hamster fixation)
January 29, 200818 yr Traveler IQ 136 Rank Among Friends 1 of 12 Rank Overall 2X,XXX of 1,488,269 Highest score 60X,XXX Challenges played 22
January 30, 200818 yr Closest to target - 5 km (Maparto, Mozambique)Anyone beat this? Yep - 3km to Bangkok on a 14" monitor and a shaky mouse.
January 30, 200818 yr Beware of carpal tunnel syndrome - playing these 22 games over 3-4 days nearly killed my arm.
January 30, 200818 yr Map too small - I was 114 km from Geneva. Probably in the vineyards of France somewhere.... well that's my excuse!! 105 IQ Shall try again later. Edited January 30, 200818 yr by Patsycat
January 31, 200818 yr I only nailed one place perfectly - San Marino! I was 100km from my home town of Dublin!
January 31, 200818 yr It's a bit hard to land close to some of the Pacific Islands like Paleu and Easter when they don't even appear on the map. My biggest miss was by about 12,000 kms. A Norwegian Island that I had never heard of and turned out to be a looong way from Norway. Edited January 31, 200818 yr by Old Croc
January 31, 200818 yr I think most of us will fail 'bigger' on places that are part of a vast expanse...
January 31, 200818 yr Can someone please explain to me how knowing different locations throughout the world has anything to do with IQ? I was awful at geography at school, I'm not that much better now even after visiting some of the places that came up in that quiz........ that little Q and A session is like pin the tail on the donkey when you have never seen, been to or been told about the donkey.
