I saw this linked off of SharpBrains last week, and played. It's fun.

they still haven't enlarged the map, I notice.
I'd play more if they did. considering it's all about how close you are with your pushpin, the puny size is a tad aggravating.

WHY! WHY? Why don't people who make fully-articulated vector-based flash thingies embed them on web pages in such a way that you can resize them with your browser window? Unplayably small! Boo. Hiss.

Damn, only got 53439 out of 55000 on level 11. The map size is annoying.

Workaround, if you like this game but don't like squinting:
Install firebug or any other dev tool that lets you edit html on the fly, or save the page locally and edit it. Search/replace 625 to 1250 and 500 to 1000. Voila!

Huh. Just did it again, and the easy world places included Westminister, Buckingham Palace, AND Big Ben. Interesting randomization there.

I got to level 10, and missed proceeding by just 100 points.

It's just as annoyingly difficult to put the pin in teeny countries as it was the first three times, dang it.
