MADAyuMadyan –
DOD bermasalah mencari Damsyik pada kuiz peta baru.
Sebagai tindakan ketenteraan terhadap kerajaan Syria tetap menjadi topik hangat
rundingan, ia telah memberi inspirasi kepada quizzers profesional untuk meminta
orang ramai untuk menentukan Damsyik pada peta interaktif. Jabatan Pertahanan
Amerika Syarikat nampaknya telah menghadapi masalah.
“Di
mana Damsyik? Amerika Syarikat dan United Kingdom (terlintas keluar) mungkin
untuk mengebom itu. Adakah anda tahu di mana ia? “Meminta pengarang permainan,
menunjukkan bahawa pemain klik pada peta dan menentukan bandar.
Peta
segar kemudian muncul, menunjukkan anda berapa banyak batu dari realiti jawapan
anda.
Secara
umum keputusan menunjukkan bahawa orang tahu ibu negara Syria terletak di Timur
Tengah dan berhampiran dengan laut. Media sosial laman web usvsth3m.com, yang
pasukannya mencipta permainan ini, katanya dalam satu analisis yang dikeluarkan
pada hari Jumaat bahawa “Lebih daripada 50% daripada pemain kita fikirkan dalam
jarak 200 kilometer.”
Walau
bagaimanapun, keputusan jabatan-jabatan kerajaan yang telah dikesan dan
menghasilkan beberapa anggaran membimbangkan yang tepat.
“Kami
. . . mempunyai 65 tekaan dari dalam Jabatan Pertahanan Amerika Syarikat,”
mendedahkan statistik. “57% mendapat ia betul-betul di DOD, berbanding dengan
64% di [UK] Majlis Parlimen [daripada 139 tekaan].”
DoD
has problems locating Damascus in new map quiz. As military actions against the
Syrian government remains a hot topic of negotiations, it has inspired
professional quizzers to ask people to pinpoint Damascus on interactive map.
The US Department of Defense has apparently encountered problems.
“Where
is Damascus? The US and the UK (crossed out) are probably to bomb it. Do you
know where it is?” ask the authors of the game, suggesting that players click
on the map and pinpoint the city.
A
fresh map then appears, showing you how many miles away from reality your
answer is.
In
general results show that people know the Syrian capital is located in the
Middle East and close to the sea. The social media website usvsth3m.com, whose
team created the game, said in an analysis released on Friday that "More
than 50% of our players guessed within 200 miles."
However,
government departments’ results were traced and yielded some worryingly
inaccurate estimates.
“We .
. . had 65 guesses from within the US Department of Defense,” revealed the
statistics. “57% got it right at the DoD, compared to 64% in the [UK] Houses of
Parliament [out of 139 guesses].”

Walaupun
beberapa ahli parlimen British seolah-olah sengaja melibatkan dalam
diri-sabotaj, meletakkan negara di tengah-tengah Lautan Atlantik Selatan,
sebagai contoh, ia kelihatan seperti pekerja DOD telah membuat kesilapan
sepenuhnya ‘Obliviously’.
“Penduduk
di DOD tidak pergi untuk tempat-tempat yang terang-terangan salah, sebaliknya
mereka masih meneka di seluruh Timur Tengah. Kami tidak fikir mereka bergurau, “kata
laporan yang dikeluarkan pada Jumaat.
Walaupun
ia mungkin sukar untuk menentukan bandar pada peta kosong, masih “hanya
beberapa orang yang tahu” di mana Damsyik, menurut pencipta permainan. Walau
bagaimanapun, sesetengah sengaja Hitam atau Kaspia Laut bukannya Laut
Mediterranean sebagai menyentuh pantai itu.
“Kebanyakan
fikirkan suatu tempat di Gurun Sahara, atau di negeri-negeri Balkan. Dua orang
dipilih Siberia. Satu orang dipilih Texas. Mereka mungkin bergurau, “pasukan
kami Vs Th3m menulis.
Secara
keseluruhan, lebih daripada 100,000 orang memainkan permainan dengan masa
laporan itu dikeluarkan, menurut angka mereka.
While
some British lawmakers seemed to be engaging in deliberate self-sabotage,
placing the country in the middle of the South Atlantic Ocean, for example, it
looked like the DoD employees were making errors completely obliviously.
“The
folks in the DoD haven’t gone for blatantly wrong places; instead they’re still
guessing all over the Middle East. We don’t think they’re joking,” said the
report released on Friday.
While
it might be difficult to pinpoint a city on a blank map, still “quite a few
people knew” where Damascus was, according to the game’s creators. However,
some accidentally picked the Black or Caspian Seas rather than the
Mediterranean Sea as touching its coastline.
“Many
of these guessed somewhere in the Sahara Desert, or in the Balkan states. Two
people picked Siberia. One person picked Texas. They were probably joking,” a
team of Us Vs Th3m wrote.
In
total, more than 100,000 people played the game by the moment the report was
released, according to their figures.
