90% Average Error 10 miles 376 seconds

[ragecage]

82% while drunk

[Jeffy25]

92 percent 260 seconds and 15 miles of errors, god damn new england areas...and wasn't trying to be perfect! haha, i'm gonna try again just to see how much better i can do knowing that mileage matters

[SirKodiak]

I got lucky and the first few states were in obvious places

[Jeffy25]

faster more accurate and and better placement :)

if you do it again geography wiz maybe new england will throw you for a loop!

[ragecage]

SirKodiak you got it cuz you have a photographic memory....get it...huh huh? :D

[SirKodiak]

98%, 3 mi, 243 secs
started me off with Colorado, argh

[eggson27]

Nice! 96%, 8 miles, 203 seconds

[Alloutwar]

92%, 61 miles, 224 sec

That was totally skewed by the first few being those block-states that could be anywhere. And Oregon....darn oregon.

[SirKodiak]

SirKodiak you got it cuz you have a photographic memory....get it...huh huh? :D

You know what, I finally did get it... I had forgot you made the picture of me as a camera holding a sword, turning me into SirKodak :)

[BINGLEBOP]

98%, 7 miles, 154 seconds

This computer kind of lags, so I'll try again later. This would have been much, much more challenging if it didn't tell you what state it was at the top before you begin.

[Alloutwar]

I saw that on like the last three states!~!

i wasnt even looking at the name beside the state for like the first 47 states. Just saw the shape and went with it. Oh man did i feel stupid

[Rongar]

SirKodiak you got it cuz you have a photographic memory....get it...huh huh? :D

Uh..uh, Rage...it's 'cos SirK is bearish on learning Mandarin, but bullish on most other stuff.

I tried my hand at the puzzle, and got Florida taken over by Canadian snowbirds!

[Slingshot]

Are you sure you live in Connecticut?

[MichelleWie]

That 100% by sir kodiac is impressive. I keep trying but I can't get it. I always get a colorado or Nebraska and don't get it in the exact, exact spot.

[OregonDuck1989]

92% 14 miles 398 seconds

[ewing6]

76% avg error: 129 miles time 351 secs

lol after getting 8 out of 10 (colorado messed me up and like a ***** I put ND in SD spot lol) I put evey one of them in HI... except cali... that I put in Maine

[gRYFYN1]

96% , 48/50 8miles, 192sec,

My errors came on the 1st two, try to plat Kentucky and Nebraska

[FloydtheBarber]

98 % 49/50, 25 miles (****ing accidentally let go of Rhode Island while dragging it over Alaska) 180 seconds

[Jeffy25]

98%, 7 miles, 154 seconds

that would make it more fun!

[BINGLEBOP]

I don't see how anybody who made it to high school can possibly do bad on this (percentage wise at least) since it tells you what state it is.

I bet more people on here would do much, much worse if they didn't know what state it was aside from the shape. Wyoming and Colorado might be mixed up, Alabama and Mississippi, New Hampshire and Vermont, and so on.

[ragecage]

The small states would get me, except Hawaii and Rhode Island of course.

[dps]

98%, 3 miles, 303 seconds.

[metsguy234]

Wow you guys are good at geography (except ewing and TNP) jeez

[BINGLEBOP]

BOOM!

26498

I'm happy I got 100%, but I'm disappointed in the time. I did it in 154 seconds yesterday (albeit at 98%). I'll try again later.

[BINGLEBOP]

Here we go... 178 seconds (just under three minutes). Much better, but I bet I can still beat that.

You're 18 TNP? I thought you were older than this. :p

[TheNamelessPoet]

You're 18 TNP? I thought you were older than this. :p

lol no I am 26 :p
but at 18 i could have done probably 94% or so. geography and english (obviously :p) were not my strong points... but damnit I was good at math then... I have lost a lot now, not using any of it but *shrug* who cares... algebra is the only thing that is REALLY used on a daily basis not calculus and stuff liek that...
My grades sucked everywhere else so they would not let me take Calc in HS and I didn't get far enough in College to have to take it

What's to stop you from learning it now? Just like you said you wanted to take ballet classes.

[TheNamelessPoet]

lol ballet... thats right up their with nascar (rage will probably kill me for that one lol) as far as interesting. I have thought about taking it now... I am going to get my degree out of the way 1st... then worry abut non degree classes if I decide to take it

[BINGLEBOP]

I was thinking just learning it in your free time, without taking a class. Get yourself a textbook and learn, learn, learn! You could do it online as well.

As for ballet, you're out of luck. Didn't you say if ballet didn't work out, you'd start playing soccer? Either that or rugby... I forget.

[Coach Owens]

Beat ya, Bingle. :) ;) :p

I actually got it a while ago in one of those stupid chain e-mails that I happened to click on, so I assume he was e-mailed it

Oh. Interesting. I guess I must just be getting EVERY SINGLE OTHER FREAKING CHAIN E-MAIL FLOATING AROUND OUT THERE...

I think I get EVERY ****ING ONE out there from my family :mad: And they flip out and take it personally if I block or tell them to stop. So I now have several E-mails.

[Jeffy25]
