OMG...that's awful Michel.  I've always been embarrassed about my dreadful geography....NOW I'm out and out ashamed.

  Thanks for the game. (//vny!://discoverseattle.net/forums/richedit/smileys/5.gif)

I second that PC.  I suck at Geography.  I know where Vancouver is.

Yes...it's always fun when I have my inadequacies IN MY FACE.  [img style="CURSOR: pointer" onclick=url(this.src); src="vny!://www.cheesebuerger.de/images/smilie/froehlich/e021.gif" border=0]

That was kinda fun.
 I didn't make it past level 3, though....

ah yes, that game.

I beat it before, after a while the places start repeating and then you'll know where Maurituis is for example.

Mr Sawdust just did the test.  Level 8 on his first crack.  Probably could have gotten to the next level and carried on, but he missed one.  That's terminal in this game apparently.  I managed to get to level 4  (after about 10 tries)

  My hero. [img style="CURSOR: pointer" onclick=url(this.src); src="vny!://www.cheesebuerger.de/images/more/bigs/c018.gif[/img]

  It would be nice if the map was a tich bigger.  Even places I KNEW, I couldn't find.

Van Isle is merely a dot. (//vny!://discoverseattle.net/forums/richedit/smileys/5.gif)

Ja. I'm proud to say I've managed Level 1. Go go Lise!

Well I missed Victoria, Canada.  Not because I don't know where it is, but Vancouver Island is barely visible on this teensy map.  So I want my points back.   (//vny!://discoverseattle.net/forums/richedit/smileys/1.gif)  I continue to suck at geography in general.

Yeah I know. Other places I've gotten under 10km are Oslo, Budapest, London, Vancouver, Ottawa, Berlin, Stockholm, Paris, then the church of England's headquarters. I can picture where these places are, been reading maps since 4, everything is burned into my brain practically. lol

although i suck on africa. never really was interested other then the basics knowing of the countries.

I really dislike visual games.  I'd rather play a language-based game- like Jeopardy.

I'm good at Jeopardy too.....except if they have geography questions. [img style="CURSOR: pointer" onclick=url(this.src); src="vny!://www.cheesebuerger.de/images/more/bigs/c022.gif" border=0]

I suck at US History.  I'm totally sunk when I get categories like Civil War or US Presidents.

French people would probably do better than English people on Bible trivia anyways.  Doesn't everyone in Quebec have a name from the Bible (or 7 names?)
 
 example:  Jean-Marc Pierre Luc Etienne Tremblay

stl has this wacko archbishop who makes international news for being an idiot, he closes a bunch of churches now because they're not giving him money. They get turned into concert venues. I think that's going on in Quebec as well. I'm a fan of Arcade Fire and they bought an old church and turned it into a recording studio. Think about it, they'd be perfect places for that, good accoustics.

 Great game, but the best I can get is 150k as the map is so small even with glasses on I can't see![/DIV]
