How to play

1. Every day, four lines. Lines 1 to 3: a country's land border with three neighbours in a row (or its whole land border if it has three or fewer). They are far apart, each a little harder than the last.
2. The line comes alone, at its real size and angle. Move the map until it sits in its place, then pose.
3. Pose: up to 20 points (full under 50 km, nothing past 2,000 km). Name the country whose border it is for 2 more.
4. After the reveal, name the neighbours the line runs along: up to 3 more. A wrong name costs nothing; the step closes at the 3rd.
5. On every line you can buy the continent for 5 points, then the region where most of the line runs, highlighted in orange on the map, for 10 more.
6. Line 4 is HARDCORE: one line along several borders in a row, anywhere else, without its size. Place it and set its size: the pose is scored on the mean distance between your line and the real one (up to 20 points). Then name the countries it separates: up to 5 more.

Questions

What about disputed territories?

A disputed area is taken out of every country that claims it, Halve's neutral rule. The border you play is where the countries really touch.

Where do the maps come from?

Natural Earth 1:10m (public domain), in the Web Mercator projection.

Borders follow Natural Earth; disputed areas are left out.
