    Hahahaha, that's pretty cool. I almost made it to level 4 the first time. Got 62km and then 33km from two places. Thought that was pretty cool.

    I'm going to add it on facebook and practice it some more, now.

    This thing is really addictive....I spent some time memorizing all those countries in Africa that I never heard of, and made it to level 11.

    Got level 8 on my first try. But after the first couple levels, I just knew where the country was and had no idea where the city was located(let alone knowing it was even in that country). Russia and australia were killers, I'd always pick the other side of the country:o

    Africa is also my "weak point" I know a few countries in northern africa and south africa, other than that, I'm clueless

    I've done it on Facebook a few times too. My highest score there is 312,885 after completing Level 9. Africa is a killer for me too.
