Ouch.

Back in the day, when my friends all had posters of rock stars and heart throbs on their bedroom walls, I had maps and nautical charts. So it's particualrly humiliating that I didn't even make it through level 6 [of 12].

Update: Made it through level 9 on a retry. Whew. I feel better now.

Anonymous said...: Final level: 8, Traveler IQ: 100. It says that I rock and all are supposed to bow down to the master, however. This seems somewhat odd to me since I didn't think I did all that well on this level (I must admit I'm not good at remembering where all of the different countries are in Africa without consulting a map), plus 100 should be just average, right?; Sunday, February 17, 2008 11:04:00 PM

michael: my traveler iq for making it to level 9 was a measly 103. i noticed you get more points for being quick, which i'm not when mouses are involved, so maybe we just cleared each level with an averge number of points for those levels.; Sunday, February 17, 2008 11:30:00 PM
puppylander said...: 10. apparently, dropping me on the african continent and telling me what country i'm in will be utterly unhelpful to me.

hipparchia said...: if the kissing is half as good as the wording, they're not xenophobes any more.

I don't even try such things anymore.
