    I got a 92 but my average error distance was only 8 miles off. Not too bad. Georgia threw me. I wasn't at the coast.

    98% with an error of 27 miles. That is not friendly to using a touchpad on a laptop. When I dragged Texas, I ran out of travel on the touchpad and accidentally released the state in the incorrect position resulting in a big error. Each subsequent drop reduced the average error. Also, the little cursor hand completely obscures states like Rhode Island and Delaware making it tricky to see where you're placing them.

    I really didn't want to put CA on the map. I thought I had the option to put it where I wanted it, but I could never get it into my Recycle Bin.

    94 with 12 mile error, placing states in the middle of an open space can be tricky, Rhode Island was a lucky guess

    Yeah - if the first state to come up isn't a coastal or border one, placement is difficult at best.

    92%, 15 mile error, 456 seconds. My first state was Iowa and my third state was Tennessee...how the heck was I supposed to get those perfect? Also missed a couple of the small NE states as I've never been there and there were no other states to match them up to yet. Fun stuff...
