Wonder if the order is the same each time? I had Oregon first and New Hampshire last on mine. That would make a difference.

Nope.
My 98% was technically my second try, since first time, it started me with Kansas, so I didn't even bother and immediatly pressed refresh :)

The percentage is just purely how many you got right/wrong.
Example, if you got 1/50 wrong, and miss that one by 100 miles, you get 98%, 10 miles (example). You get 1/50 wrong, and miss that one by the whole damn continent, you get 98%, 100 miles or whatever. :)
But I have a good excuse ... I'm Canadian !!!!

78%, 272 miles, 574 seconds.
for the mileage, if i didn't know where something was, i just dropped it in the middle of nowhere.
for the time, i was talking to like 8 people on MSN at the time so i didn't really care about the time.
this one is fairly easy because once you get going, it's just like a jigsaw puzzle, checking borders and coastlines for a match. if they wanted to make it much harder and REALLY test your skills, they would have a version where each piece didn't stay on the map once you placed it, there-by eliminating the puzzle aspect and relying purely on geographic knowledge.
EDIT: am i the only person who thinks the border of Montana and Idaho looks like a side-view silhouette of Bill Clinton's face?

How many states are there now in the U.S. (Including IRAQ !!!!!) ?
The U.S. is still trying to take us over ... but until they take our beer, we will still be independent.

Leapfrog is hard :(
The only thing hard about the Leapfrog we own is trying to keep it working longer than 5 minutes at a time. It is constantly telling my daughter , "Time to change the batteries." Even after we just replaced them with new ones not less than a few minutes before. Must be co-owned by a conglomerate of battery manufacturers LOL.
