Traveler IQ Test

Sort of a neat little game to see how well you know geography.

My first round was

355,937 points
on level 10
traveler IQ of 110

Give it a go!

Just call me moe-ron. At least Rick and I are morons together as our scores were almost the same.

(And that dang map needs to be magnified about 10X! )

No sh*t!! I know where places like Xel-ha and Chitzen Itza are but trying to put that little flag in its proper place while the time is counting down is nerve-wracking!!! I did get within 20km of Guadalajara (I think that is the city I got closest too). I did manage to get to level 9 though.
