How many times did you go through it before you took the screen shot? LOL

My second attempt .. first one I got a 97% ........ Started out with West Virginia ..... the second attempted started out with Oklahoma

Cool! I missed three also.

[jonny1]

83% - but Arkansas was one of the first and there were no reference points, hard to drop it in the middle of nowhere and get it right.

[Mile High Shack]

yeah I missed most of mine on the stupid NE states, they are all grouped together and I wasn't sure on a couple of them

[Rascal]

anybody got a proxy server address so I can try it?

[Endy]

99% but I am a social studies teacher, so I gots an excuse!

Plus, I've had my students play that game several times and I've had some practice.

[Billy Clyde Puckett]

I got 86%. This Greenie got Wyoming and Texas mixed up:)

[Play2win]

Fricken' two new england states and Nebraska.

[Rascal]

What is this where you put the location of the states on the map?

I wonder how many could name all of the state capitals. On the way back from Colorado the other weekend I was embarrased with my wife not knowing 1/2 of them..so for the next 8 hours I drilled them into her head.

In high school I was proud of the fact that I could put every country, and their capital, in the world on a map 100%. I'd be lucky to get about 50% now.

What?!?!?!!?

Dude, I had social studies about a zillion years ago in 8th grade where I knew them all

Multiple choice I’d get 100 on, but not off the top of my head

8th grade was about 20 years ago

[Crushaholic]

I only got 80%, but my problem was the initial dragging of the states to a blank USA. Once some of the puzzle pieces were in place, I could fit the rest.

I'ld be lucky to get a third of those right..... byproduct of spending too much time in the science wing...

[Alkazar]

Ha! Only two misses... 48 perfect out of 50 turns, Error 0 miles, average error 6 miles. Missed with 1 new England state and 1 mid west state, but neither was missed by much.

[Rascal]

I try to get a smattering of everything in all fields, but my real passion is history and geography. Heck last night I read the entire Gates of Fire just because it referenced history in it. I almost became a history major but I realized I wouldn't make any money at it. And since I was good with math, physical sciences, and my hands I decided on mechanical engineering. Now I am becoming interested in law and taking several law classes. I'm thinking about becoming a lawyer, but I would have to take classes part time (gotta earn a living) and it would basically take up 4-5 years of life doing nothing but that...not sure I want it that bad.

[Rock Chalk]

Thats gay. I got hosed. The first one was COLORADO and since there is absolutely no references for Colorado I didnt get it exactly right. I was really close though.

[Rock Chalk]

How do you get 99% when there are 50 turns and missing 1 is 2%?

Missed by 4 miles that's pretty dang good. I got lucky and started with Florida :)

I'm with ya on the geography thing rascal. I love it. I like history too but I use to ace my maps back in school everytime. When my son has to do a report or even just mentions another country I ask him if he knows where it's located on a map. He says no dad and I say well pull out the atlas son cuz your gonna learn. He loves that :)

On this thing I got 45 outta 50 but a few of those were off by just a touch. I'll have to get my son to try it. That should be good for a laugh. :)

That is a pretty cool site. If you start from the homepage they have alot of other maps of the world that work like this state one and they also have quizzes not only on geography but math, 20th century presidents, computers, trivia etc... It's a good tool for kids cuz they can learn geography while kinda playing at the same time. Since most kids don't like geography it beats staring at an atlas for hours memorizing. Man, I sound like I'm getting paid. :)

I'm gonna try something here with this print screen program thingy...

I'd say that's a tad to small :) I was just using this printkey v.4 program the wifey just downloaded but 60x60 is to small doing it this way.
