Best I could get without cheating was 24. Then I pulled up a map and finished it all, it still said the short bus was coming for me :(

But it was actually very educational, for me anyway. I should take this test every now and again to stay sharp.

I often wondered about that meself..

When I used to put the USA puzzle together when I was in grade school, they had that covered by putting several little bull shit states like Rhode Island and all those other little bugger states on ONE puzzle piece...

I don't get it. . .

I finished it in the alloted time, with time to spare actually, but when I put the last state in place, the darn thing restarted on me. Huh? What's up with that? So I didn't see any kind of score, or a pass/fail indicator.

I don't get it. How am I supposed to measure my stupidity if it just starts over.

:sick:

And I just did it -again- in about 60 seconds (man my mouse hand hurts), same deal, it restarted!

Also to note. . . The brainiac that created it FORGOT that Michigan has TWO parts. If you try to drop the name on the dog-looking part above Wisconsin, it thinks you are WRONG.

BOGUS, I want my money back. :bang:

I can't even get it to work.

Perhaps I have an old version of flash on the laptop.

Well I finished it but the same thing happen to me that happened to AsaJay, it restarted, then if you wait long enough it goes to the "you failed" screen, but shows your score as 48/48. Very dissapointing ending if you ask me.
And yes, I did need a map to finish the damn thing.

I got 40/48, told me I failed and I get to take the short bus...again...

I would have done better, but I was looking for the states I know, and I am weak with my alphabet... :oops:
