46 perfect out of 50 - Average error 8 miles
Time 247 seconds

My first try was avg error 11 miles. Oklahoma was first and I put it too far east.

Good work, I think that means you are ready for your Masters Degree.

How's the car coming, last I heard you just dropped the motor in and was sorting some things out.

Motor is in, car is running great. Now for suspension and brake upgrades. It's fun, but never finished!

Avg error 5 miles. What was the last state you had to place? Mine was Tennessee and what's funny is I grew up there.

Five miles! You must have a GPS unit in your head!

42 out of 50

267 sec 45 miles average

Still? What makes you think I passed it the first time around? :D

They gave me Kansas to start (Kansas?!, where the Hell is Kansas?!) , followed by Arkansas(!) and I tanked the first time -- 46/50; 30 miles. The next time through, it was slightly easier start and I was 49/50, 7 miles.

Down to 2 miles! Woo hoo!

I'm such a nerd.

226 Seconds, 0 miles average, 50 out of 50. I did not use any visual aids or anything, but it did take me several attempts.

lendaddy -- are there still outlines of states drawn on your monitor with a dry erase marker, ya bastard? Hope you used a Sharpie by mistake! :D

Actually I got lucky with two of em. I think I had kentucky early. So, everyone knows where it is, but not exactly. Well I got lucky and hit it dead on. Once you get some in the middle it's easy.

First try I got 48 out of 50 with average error of 10 miles. Would be interesting to see what the average 'merican would get.... sheesh, talk about scary.

Good game. He he, I live in South Africa, and I got 40/50, 65mi ave error in 437sec the first try. 2nd round, it improved to 45/50, 90% 18mi ave error in 314 sec (with some interruptions from the kids). Have visited the US numerous times over the past 15 years or so.

OK, so I practiced a little.

I found that the puzzles for Asia Africa and Europe were much more difficult.

How do you start someone with West Virginia? Do people actually still live there?

38 miles
540 sec (had to answer the phone though)

Nebraska and West Virginia hurt me. Not so bad for a non-citizen.
