That was really cool! I honestly got 12 right...I knew where they were. The rest I did not. I just kept dragging them around until they dropped in. The map plays a happy little tune when you complete it. :)

WTH how do you get Israel in it's place? It is so small! I had to try a few times...

Edit: I had to guess on all of the *stans but I got the rest done with only two mistakes. If it wasn't for my PoliSci prof who gave us a "map quiz" every week during class I would have gotten a lot more wrong. :eek:

Clue: The tip of the arrow is what counts. :)

I got 4 or 5 wrong. Western Aftrica is an unknown zone for me :eek: When did Morocco change it's name?

don't remind me of my geographical incompetency! i'm not so bad with north america, and i can (duh) point out obvious places like continents but when it comes to actual geography I AM pathetically sad. I should play games like these for a bit.. then I'd be ok. :p

took me like 20 minutes :( :(

I was ok with the middle east stuff there but northern africa is something altogether. We need some war there to teach me the geopgraphy.

Wish it kept track of the right/wrong drops. I had about 5-6 wrong drops...not too bad I guess :)

Other than afghanistan and pakistan, all the other stans were pretty difficult.

101/111 for the European one.

Didn't even try the US States, I'd just embaress myself.

I don't know any of them east of Colorado.

The first one I was good one except I screwed up on three Western Africia Countries. The Euro one was easy though.

Damn... good thing I'm good with computers. I could never make a living if I had to depend on my geography skills!
