Hi Andrea,

I just did it, and I found it hard for the 1st few, like you said no boundaries, I was near but still not close enough so they errored it. What did you get as a score? being a travel agent I am shocked I only got 85%.

86% for me also with a 53mile error and 375sec...
Hard to set the first couple...like I know where S.D. is ...but when there is no landmarks,,,,
USAir is doing something like that now for a chance to win 10,000 free ff miles...it asks you where the city is and you have to place it...thing is they are not always US cities...they uw UK, Germany, etc......got with in 11 miles as the closest and 3,000 (oops..) as the fartherst...try that one !!!!!

A vocabulary game. For each correct answer, 10 grains of rice are donated to the UN World Food Program. You can choose the level depending on how hard you wish to think. You can also select subjects different from vocabulary...math, chemistry, art, languages, geography etc.
