Originally Posted By FerretAfros 94% 8 Miles 150 Seconds It would have been a lot easier if my second state wasn't Colorado. I then had to do Iowa, which looked pretty close, but was apparently like 200 miles off. Luckily the rest were in a pretty good order, but those big square ones can be killers.

Originally Posted By FerretAfros I just played twice (because the first had Nebraska, Nevada and Oklahoma all in a row as the first three), and the second time I got 100% with Oklahoma second (after Hawaii) and a really lucky guess. It took 185 seconds, and I was going pretty slowly so I wouldn't mess up that amazing placement from the beginning.

Originally Posted By LacyBelle I did much better today. It's definitely the luck of the draw in which order the states come up. That's my story and I'm sticking to it. 47 perfect Score 94% Avg error 9 miles 218 seconds
