Because I love to travel, I get emails from different airlines and travel sites. Lufthansa has a sweepstakes going on right now that has a game attached...a highly addictive game.
The gist? There are 3 rounds.
Round 1 has a map of Europe (no words) and red dots for each city they fly into. They will list a city, you click the corresponding red dot. Easy enough (well, unless, like me, you never learned German geography.) Each of the 5 answers has a maximum of 1000 points. The points will be adjusted downward for how far from the correct answer you are.
Round 2 is the same thing, but they have removed the red dots and you only have the country outlines to go from. The 5 questions are each worth 2,000 points.
Round 3 is more difficult as they remove the country outlines and you are left with the land mass outline. The 5 questions are each worth 3,000 points.
Total points possible: 30,000. Number of people who have achieved it? A lot. Me? Not so much, but I have gotten pretty close. I won't say how many times it has taken to get this score, mostly because I don't think I can count that high. Anyway, see for yourself.

I got 26572 on my first and only try. I have to admit I did get easy cities for the 3rd round. I don't remember one of them but I got Zurich, Lyon, Nice, and Malaga. I served my mission in France and Switzerland and researched a never-taken trip to southern Spain. Pretty lucky! Thanks for sharing Sara!
ha ha, that's awesome. do you win anything?
If you get a perfect 30,000 you get entered into a drawing to win some little airline trinkets. Probably not anything you'd want to keep.
Ansley, you definitely lucked out. I could do alright with most of western Europe (less Germany, but I always seem to get stuck with eastern europe. Without the borders, I get really confused as to Poland's location.
