Geography Game

Here is an on line game I came across. It tests your knowledge of European geography. I did better than I thought I could, even though it gets progressively harder.

Enjoy.

28000+. At no time did I get a maximum score because my cursor/screen ration is not accurate enough.

Oh dear, and I thought I did well at just over 27,000. Others will beat us both, I'm sure, but they will cheat.

I only got 22954 and with that score you know I didn't cheat. I was confused on the third round when the borders were removed.

What I don't understand is on the first round there are dots indicating cities and I clicked on the dots but never got a full score. I guess the dots are only reference points for the closest city and not for the airport?

How does one cheat?

Just over 25000 but the blank map was tough.
Can I keep my handle?

Michael,

I didn't mean to imply that Fodorites would actually cheat on the game --- merely lie about their score.

After a dismal first score, I studied the map before I started to play. Still only hit 26,200.

I totally zeroed in on Vilnius on the map in round 3. Not going to comment on how I couldn't find Tallin in round 1.
