I got within 15 years and 200 km but got 7,275 / 10,000. If the expectation is to absolutely nail it, I can hardly imagine who is it for.
My hope is that one day there is a Rainbolt for Time Portal. For someone like that to exist, the game has to be hard. That said, I agree the scoring could definitely use some improvement!
I've put the part about Pope Gregory (and St Paul Basilica) at the St Paul basilica in Vatican. Was punished by not putting it in Rome (where by "Rome" the game probably meant "whatever the meaning is in the underlying map engine").
The Alaska sale is in DC? One of the videos has the exchange of the flags on the post.
Yeah the scoring can be pretty harsh. You should be able to see your percentile overall and for each round on the results page.
I really think that the scoring is fine, I like to have a big progression margin but I think it would be nice to know how the score is computed.
Good call. I should make the scoring more transparent.
