With so many points placed in the middle of the ocean...I have to wonder what those responders were thinking, especially because I assume they had to volunteer to answer and were not forced to. Like was it all trolling, and doing something 'funny' was more important than actually attempting to answer? Was the act of thinking and guessing just like, too much effort to put in, so they click randomly anywhere just to be done with it? Were people so afraid of guessing the wrong country, so it felt safer to not pick one at all? Were people so unfamiliar with looking at maps that they confused which color represented countries and which was water? All of the other misplaced dots are worrying as well for other reasons, but the ones in the ocean just have my head spinning. If it's all just trolls, I guess well played, you got me.
I'm wondering how many of them just didn't hear/understand the question and just put a pin in the map so they could get away from the person asking them to put pins in things and interrupting their day.
That could potentially explain a lot of them, actually
Maybe they were using s laptop with a shitty track pad and clicked by accident
Don't know why I didn't think of that possibility, a much more likely answer
And those who know that Atlantis is Iranian teritory but still don't know where it is
"I don't know where it is, but it's probably either in Europe or the US so I'll put it in between them"
