My eyes hurt after a while. :( I just can't make a mouse be that accurate.

7KM, I forgot what it was. Probably was Dubai, UAE. Even that, it wasn't really accurate, I clicked the spot which I perceived was Singapore but it was 100km away.

I got to level 6 and my travel IQ is 94. I was doing fine until I got to the Americas.:p

I also got 7km Boem...somthing South Africa but it was luck , never even heard of the place.

I gots me a score of 406,365. Don't remember the level. But an IQ of 116. Not bad.

But 500k+. Damn.

390 947 points, level 10, "IQ" 114.

What killed my score was the famous places bit. Some I'd never heard of...

362,492, Level 10, IQ 111

The game thinks Buenos Aires is in Brazil

26846
It stopped me at level 6- I had to get 30,000 to continue. I need to work on my African geography.

The African countries kick my butt. Ireland, they can give me that all day long :D

I thought Fenway park was in Chicago (not a sports fellow).

apparently I do not.

I found Carmen San Diego!

93? This thing is rigged.

I thought Fenway park was in Chicago (not a sports fellow).

Well, I'd never even heard of it and clicked somewhere around Los Angeles... :D

My eyes hurt after a while. :( I just can't make a mouse be that accurate.

Accuracy is overrated.

Wow, I got 4km from NYC!

I got to Level 12 with 567,880 points.

IQ: 132.


Accuracy is overrated.

=/

I didn't do well enough for it to let me finish. It stopped after 10 levels, with my score at 401,586 and said that my "Traveler IQ" was 115.

1st try.

Lv 6, and 94. I used to be good at this stuff. the map IS way too small though.

4th try.

lv 10 and 111, it's slowly coming back.

359,123 pts
Level 10,
IQ 110

IQ 110... on the 10th level, I got as much as 16,000 km away.. it was about as far away as possible :(

Level 10 - 115. The closet one I had was of all places, Congo, was only 12km away.

God bored and stopped...I did well with western europe, russia and canada. Seriously a travellers guide, things it called "famous" don't even show up on my radar haha...

:D

level 6 at 89 IQ points. Hoorah!

346780 level 10

Consistently get to level 10. Consistently fail to pass level 10. Consistently get an IQ score of about 110.

Better lucky than good, I suppose. :D :p

IQ 110... on the 10th level, I got as much as 16,000 km away.. it was about as far away as possible :(Just about...a meter was originally defined as one ten-millionth of the distance between the equator and the north pole (on a line through Paris, naturally), so about 20,000 km is half-way around the world, and the farthest you can get from anyplace.

OK. Just to get you all even more hooked check out other variations right below the map.

Flags of the world was very tough. Europe was fine, but asia...forget it.

Try capitals of North America also.

Good work, though I prefer the speed of light in a vacuum calibration.

By the way, I got all the way up to 114 IQ. All of you scoring between 80-100, don't feel bad, this is clearly different from the IQ scale where 100 is supposed to be the mean/median/mode. Though your average American might score 70-90 on an actual IQ, they'd probably score 30-40 on this. Hehe.

I guess BFFoo is made up of smarties :p

The phone rang when I got to level 9 on my first try. :( Got 121 on the second try. I need help with those Russian cities. :o

Tricks I learned so far with the game:

Anything in China is in the east end.
Anything in Brazil is in the southeast.

Augh I suck. Well, I suck at African geography. I did pretty well everywhere else.

Try one of the other variations, they're below the current map. Some of them focus on particular areas and therefore the map covers a more detailed area. Still flippin hard though :(

I R Smrt!

First try: Level 6 and IQ of 94

Second try: Level 10, IQ 109, Score 346,235

Of all the countries to suck at geography in, I can't do Canada.
I wonder if they pick the IQ's based on tracking user scores.

Apparently I "Rock" at 247,240 level 8 100IQ. Messed up on Greece and Uruguay, but nailed Malta and Latvia.

This is F ed up. . I have been getting level 9-10 on a consistent basis. Now I`m in the zone and acing it but it cuts me off at level 6 and says "sorry you need a zillion more points to continue" WTF. I`m clearing cookies now to see if it makes a difference:mad:
