Do we have symbology or abbreviation for "not a word post?" (NAWP?)

Anyway, place names 'are' words. In a similar vein to freerice.com

First I read of it, but I read only a small fraction of posts. Duly noted and modified. Thanks for note.

I agree the map is small, but you only have to get approximately there (within a 500 or 600 miles to score pretty well.

yeah, the link shortener worked fine, but I like to hover over a link and see where I'm going before I jump!

and yes, they are fairly generous with the scoring, though I got a few snide comments when I totally blew something. :¬ )

This is absolutely crazy! I hit Paris in minus-5 seconds and then the thing took over my game and told me I had 1245 points just by watching it and roll from my chair laughing.
Nja, maybe I don't get the picture completely.

Dunno--I've only made to 11 a couple of times. I played it a lot on Facebook, but not very lately.
