Each round is worth 100 points: 20 for finding the misplaced city and up to 80 for placing it accurately. Within 5 km earns full placement points. Beyond that, each additional 10 km (or part of it) costs one placement point, down to zero. Five rounds add up to 500 points. Choosing a city that was already correct scores zero. There is no time limit.
For example, choosing the right city and placing it 36 km away earns 96 points: 20 for the city and 76 for placement. A perfect five-round set scores 500.
Click or tap a city’s label or pin to select it, then drag it into position. Drag empty map space to pan, use the mouse wheel or a two-finger pinch to zoom, and keep panning east or west to cross the date line.
With a pin focused, arrow keys move it; hold Shift for smaller adjustments. You can change your selected city or move it again before locking in. Each round accepts one answer.
