Danimir, posted this at the Russian side, and it's pretty good to test your European Geography knowledge (or improve it):

Here is my result: http://community.webshots.com/photo/357938192/357938480uxzSRL (of course got all those little ones wrong! luxembourg, liechtenstein, monaco, andora) .. I just cant get over Malta! I couldnt even see the spot on the map, all i knew is that its south of Italy, but i was few miles off ...anyway, it was fun

Got 80% correct. My undoing was all those small countries, Luxemburg, Andorra, Monaco etc. sleepy fingers cost me some more errors, lol

http://community.webshots.com/photo/357938192/357938480uxzSRL - working link to my results :rolleyes:

thanks forre - I will do those later, but i am sure the results will be quite qorse :gigi:, except maybe USA

edit: Ok, I took USA, and how embarrsing is that! http://community.webshots.com/photo/357977734/357977974ybSYEA - I would blame the better results on the fact that i watch weather here and so the USA map has become embeded in my head :eek: while i now almost never see the euro map .... or maybe its the fact that i've been planning my cross country driving adventure latetly, so i know the map so well :rev:

well, i got a 98 percent on Europe (i placed hungary a little bit too much to the right and got penalized ... it was the first eastern country i got, and it had to be land locked... hard to place with no context :( )

Ooo, more!! score! ( greg LOVES geography)

edit: 93 on Asia (how do they expect you to place Bhutan on the map without placing China or India on the map first! come on!)

got the same on the USA... but i never cared about my own countries geography... haha

2nd Edit: WOOT, 100% on South America.. though, i got to place Brazil first... that was a big help :D

blah, 87 on Africa... that was tough

Edit 3: retook Europe and got 100% ... wheee, same with the States (That's big leap)

That is unfair! I suck at geography.me too in this test at least. I remember back in school I was the only one that had 100% correct answers in a country and cap. test (within Europe). But it was back in the days where there were way less countrys to remember.

Normally I get the countrys memorized durring scoreboard in ESC, but they didn't have the map this year.

All in all: damn, I sucked at this test. 37/44 - 84%, 117 miles in avg error and took me 229 secs
