    I got to level 8 on the world, score of 256,319

    my worst mistake was thinking Victoria, Canada was nearer the east coast (but I got calgary)

    no, I take that back. Mistaking Equatorial Guinea for New Guinea was worst.

    Got 76,000 on US. I should've gotten Coeur D'Alene

    Yeah, they put that in just to be bastards, even I smurfed up on it. What's possibly worse is that it turned up in a Cities round. Jan Mayen is not a city, it's an island. Also, no people live there.

    9 km was my closest, from some city in Jordan.

    What's the big idea of making Hawaii so smurfing tiny that you can't even see it on the map?

    Apparently I'm completely incompetent when it comes to geography.

    You have to be careful, though, because I think there's another Norwegian city that comes up that is actually IN Norway (way up at the northeast tip), so if you don't pay attention to stuff other than the country you end up needlessly locating something in the South Atlantic when it's actually in Scandinavia.
