Same here re: geography, maps, etc., and I am not very good at this game. For me, it's because I'm not used to seeing the shape of the country on its own/standing out by itself, but I can obviously point it out/name it when it's amongst its neighbouring countries if you gave me a map. But then, I could easily identify countries like Ireland, Italy, France, Spain, Poland, Germany, etc. if I saw them by themselves. I'm not as good with the African countries by themselves or the Pacific islands.I'm trying to figure out why I'm so incredibly bad at this game! Geography was always my thing, I love maps, been reading them since I was a small child, have several hanging on my walls, it was sorta a thing my father and I shared. In his last year when I talked to him on the phone nearly every day, I always had Google maps open because we'd end up talking about places one or both of us had been, routes he took, usual geographic features, news stories around the world, all of it.
And then today I don't even get the country he was born in![]()
Same here, but of course today's was an easy one and I got that in one guess.Checking in to say I still suck at this game but I am not giving up.
Yes we need a break. I like when I get it in one guess and I have absolutely no clue. I think Ghana sounds good and then it is Ghana. That RARELY happens.Same here, but of course today's was an easy one and I got that in one guess.
