That's the one good thing about living in the middle of the country, you get a pretty good idea of where everything is.

Thanks for the help, NutBrnHair! I must have done something wrong. Pitiful, isn't it?!?

66%, 64 average miles. It's those "flyover" states in the middle that always get me. I know where they are, and I wasn't off by much!

THANK YOU for this site, it has a LOT of different maps on the main site. We were JUST talking about using maps in my Social Studies Methods class yesterday. This is a great educational resource!!!

polarpi 11-21-2004 12:50 AM

I wound up placing 48 perfect out of the 50, with an error miles of 2 miles in 381 seconds the first time I tried it.


Then tonight when I tried it, I got 49 perfect out of 50 (98%), with an error miles of 2 miles in 303 seconds. It's the perfectionist in me that makes me take longer to do this :D

It would be fun to see how we Americans would do with a game placing the Canadian provinces! I think I'd do pretty well, although the maritime provinces might screw me up a little.

I love this site and have had fun playing on it, but I do have to say that sometimes it gives you good ones first and you can do really well and other times it sticks you with states like Kansas, which you KNOW is in the middle of the US, but it's very hard to put it into place precisely without having some other guidelines to go by.

My mouse stinks and my hand goes numb by the time I play it 4 or 5 times in a row!
