Man, I thought I'd do better than that - I think it's the time limit that got me!

[gampaan]

....Cool

[enyaw]

I did terrible and I've worked in travel for the last 8 years - don't book an holiday with me!

18887 or somthing, means i couldnt find my way home with a police escort!!

[BEENTHEREDONETHAT]

255,946 of 290,654 That was mostly dumb luck

[sweetchariot]

255,946 of 290,654 That was mostly dumb luck

That's pretty good considering the maximum is 30,000!

[BEENTHEREDONETHAT]

Then why did it show 255,946 out of 290,654?

[ilyushin]

Got 19288. As mentioned the time is the short.

Neat game though.

I saw this comment in the top 10 scores #6. 30000 CAPITAN DART here! What were all those 10-digit scores there yesterday? WOW

Thats his ranking. If you put your e mail address in, you get a ranking.

That's how many miles you were away from St Petersburgh.

[Plus]

There's a test score, under 30k and there's ranking, I suppose your personal score out of all tests taken. I got 78k out of 250k+. They got me on Catania.

[stattointhailand]

Should you be able to tell where someone comes from by their score ...... ?

27000+ Probably central europe

25000 - 28000 probably a Brit or Scandi

10000 - 25000 probably American (65% don't know where Iraq is even though their nice TV news people have shown them a map every day for 5 years)

Under 10000 probably Aussie or Kiwi (not enough sheep in Europe)

Nil Probably Thai (someone got some Somtam so they never get round to playing)

JUST JOKING GUYS

[jayenram]

69,900th. I was buggered when it came to land mass only!

[PeaceBlondie]

21802. I drew a blank on one of the Baltic countries, and had one of those French ports on the wrong seacoast. I did fine for the capital of Spain, but thought another city was in Portugal. Ah, well. And when you only have a few seconds to locate a place in Turkey, I landed in Ephesus or Tarsus (bible geography). Then they take away the lines for the last part of the test, and you realize how vast Europe is. I mistakenly referred to Slovenia as being in Eastern Europe recently, and my Slovenian friend corrected me.

[Old Croc]

25,051. I'm one of the dumb aussies

[pampal]

27844 points

rank-- 57692 of 291094

[wanderer881]

I got 26715

[tijnebijn]

just over 25000 , and that for a European .

East Europe is hard , who ever is going there anyway ?

[Old Croc]

Score of 27,701 and a rank of 44,400 odd.

[TokyoT]

25,612 not bad. But I think when asked to land in Istanbul I might have put it down in the sea of Marmara rather than on the strait - was in the land mass stage so the score for putting her down in the water was still decent. Killed all me passengers but still scored well.

[tijnebijn]

28878 with a rank of 27701 .

Second time getiing easier , but still not in the top ten

[stattointhailand]

Second time getiing easier , but still not in the top ten

Think you will need the perfect 30k to make that ........... suggest you go and buy a more accurate mouse (that has to be my problem!!)

[tijnebijn]

got 29000 over twice and still just in top ten thousand , I give up ,

pretty sure those bastards are cheating with some maps though .....

But I enjoyed the game OP , got some more ?

[crowbait]

I scored 27173 and came 52000 or thereabouts

[LaoPo]

28.538

but, they didn't let me fly to the US; what's wrong ?

edit:

I noticed: just Europe.

NB: the system isn't flawless. In round 1, if you click on the correct circle/city it still says you're X miles off the airport and thus DEDUCT X miles from your score; that's NOT fair and I will certainly file a complaint with the CEO of Lufthansa.....

LaoPo

[pumpuiman]

here is a LINK for another geography game. I've posted it before....but thought I'd revive it. Fun to play head to head.

[game4shame]

I got 24760.

[bultaco44]

No way people can score max in this game.

It stunned me, when i was asked to put Copenhagen on the map. The island where the capital of Denmark ( my native country) is usually located, wasn't there , but moved more than 200 km.

Lufthansa used to be more accurate.

For those who enjoyed that game check out the 'traveller IQ challenge' application on Facebook.

Much more advanced.
