what counts

Rulings

How a pin is judged, and any decisions made when an answer was questioned.

What a pin is

  1. A pin counts for the country it lands in.
  2. A pin on a territory counts for the country the territory belongs to.
  3. A pin at sea, or in an area whose ownership is disputed, cannot be dropped.
  4. The map has 197 countries and 50 territories, drawn from Natural Earth. It has no Antarctica.
  5. Borders follow the United Nations view: Crimea counts as Ukraine and the Golan Heights as Syria. East Jerusalem counts as Israel.
