TW Weddle: Fun game! Thanks for posting!

46 perfect out of 51.

average error 13 miles.

Kinda hard to exactly locate Idaho or Kentucky on a blank map of the US!

I had 47 w/my average 'outage' being 11 miles. Colorado & S. Dakota got me, just wasn't close enough. I'm guessing that the order they pop up will have some bearing on your score.

50 perfect out of 51.

average error 3 miles.

a Great Plains state will appear near the beginning of the game to make it more difficult to place without a border, river, or other frame of reference.

50 out of 51, average error 2 miles. This was after 5 or so games, though--those tiny little eastern seaboard states are hard!

51 of 51. If they had put these in a different order, might have been a little more difficult in the western/plain states.

Michigan has to be the easiest one to get after Alaska and Hawaii!
