To remind you how big of a bunch of nubs you are:

I'm pretty good with standard M1 countries, but when they started asking about cities located on islands, I fell behind. Vanuatu wha?? Mauritius where?? Oh, they're in the middle of the fucking ocean somewhere? Fail!

you are insane

Played a couple times, always peter out at level 6, for an IQ of 93-94. I dunno every single goddamn city in Central/South America and Africa, wtf.

[Immortaldonut]

I almost made it past level 6 :/ I screwed up Poland and Germany and lost points there. The map is so tiny on my screen though.

[Trynn]

Yeah, I had a problem with the size of the map too. Everything I clicked on, even the really well-known cities were at least 1-200 miles off just because the whole thing was so tiny.

I did manage to get to the last level though... and I already knew where Mauritius and Vanuatu were, Tuc :p

[Bartuc]

Well GEEZ I guess I'm obligated to post a win screen!

I'd like to give a shout-out to Carmen Sandiego.

Also, I did already know where Iwo Jima was!!1111

That just happens to be the closest I got to nailing somewhere exactly. 1-200 km from something isn't a failure, though, at all. I'm not sure you're even punished for it score-wise; if you are, it's to the tune of like 4 points.

It'd be nice if you could play just levels 10-12. Tons of good stuff there! Did you know that Norway owns a "Bouvet Island", which is way the hell out South in the Atlantic? So if you see "Bouvet Island, Norway", and you click out by Norway, your ass gets pwnt! What the hell are those bastard Norwegians doing with an Island down there? Claymoore, report!

Sort of the same way the brits hold the falkland islands.
For... strategic sheep purposes :)

Hahah one thing that carmen sandiego did that impressed on me was how it would force little kids to learn geography!!

sadly i was not one of these kids :-P

I almost won a school geography bee when I was in 6th grade (6-8th grade school) :-/ That was like 10 years ago, though.
