i’d rather not discuss my score. pretty cool features though. (via)

407500 pts, around 81%.  I’m also Canadian… :-D

This is neat, but I’m not wild about their distance algorithm. It calculates the distance from your pin to the nearest vertex of a state, not to the nearest side. In some cases, this difference can be very large (> 100 km).

That being said, I sucked it up and got 68 percent.

71.4. You’re right, the vector/side thing is annoying…
