i would like to see the same test given, but you have to place it on a clean board for all 57 states.

If you missed three states, you'd be at 94%, mensa. Your results are every bit as believable as those for the civics test.

Bullshit. You lie trying to compensate for the fact that you're arguably the stupidest motherfucker on the internet. It would have been more believable if you said it was 46% 1,047 miles 59 minutes, with the help of a Rand McNally Road Atlas.

must have played that stupid thing 20 times. My best was 98% 2 miles. It's quite dependent on luck. If you get tossed a handful of interior states early, yer fukked.

Terry likely got a pretty favorable draw to score as well as he did. That or he's some sort of cartographic rainman.

Or he lied like I did in the civics test to impress a bunch of interweb losers I'll never meet. :)

No shit... I was handed the mecca of mensa first... Missouri. Missed it by something like 35 miles. Fucked me for the rest, but still finished mid 90%, and an error of 7 miles.
