I put it too low down. It was one of the first ones so I didn't have anythign to line it up against... and I thought Denmark was longer.

started of very bad... but got a score of 76%... little frustrated that I didn't get a higher score. Thought my knowledge of the geography in Europe was better, it should be...
the score is also the result of some lucky guessing and puzzling them in the map:)

our score (me & MDK) is 89%. the countries are: Hungary, Luxemburg, Germany, Moldova and Monaco. only Monaco was really wrong, the rest were very close. its not easy with the first ones that dont have coastlines.
Ladytron was a marvel with the little places. :)

I got 76% too which I was pleasantly surprised by as my geography knowledge is terrible. Some of the misses are a bit harsh, I got some really close but still missed. I hadn't even heard of one of the teeny ones.

god i was the worst (69%), mainly because of my drag and drop technique though. landed belgium in the UK by accident!
i got lichtenstein, vatican city and monaco spot on. but fucked up putting estonia miles away despite knowing FULL WELL it is near finland.

once your country invades a region a few times you begin to pick things up.

I've discovered that it all depends on what order they throw the countries at you.
