I knew exactly where Damascus was, but they put me down as barely making it inside their 200 mile cutoff, at 163 miles away. I think this is more about bad UI design. I got a hand cursor rather than a pointer, making it difficult to be precise, and I never noticed the zoom logo in the upper left.
Plus, with only 65 DOD responses, how significant is a deviation of only 4.5% from the norm?
- Tloewald 13y agoI cheated and still got it wrong -- it's too hard to click on their map (I doubt I was any more accurate at clicking on Arlington, VA where I live). The Linux users doing so well against Mac users thing was interesting. I wonder if it has to do with how it displays in browsers. Also -- did the measure the delay in responses (e.g. how many people went and googled it before clicking?)
- lhc- 13y agoI used the mousewheel to zoom in, making it much easier. I still was 140miles away though.
