Possible map-geek fun for your Friday

Roadguy’s friend Monkey sent along this link this morning:
http://www.kapu.hu/ajanlo/map/
It’s an interactive global geography quiz. The site displays a world map and mentions various places, and you’re supposed to click as close as possible to the place. Roadguy’s first attempt yielded the following:
Score: 471,334
Level: 11
Traveler IQ: 122
Things would have gone a bit better had Roadguy not gotten Guinea, Guinea-Bissau and Papua New Guinea confused. It’s sort of like how people mix up South St. Paul and West St. Paul, except Papua New Guinea is a heck of a lot farther from the other Guineas (and really far from West St. Paul).
If you have time to give it a try (it took maybe 10 minutes), feel free to share your score and any comments below.
