I've also thought of this. I would imagine that using roadways is the way to go once we have them available.
I propose the following guidelines in general:
1) Choice of destination should bear in mind an ultimate destination. Currently, the southern tip of South America.
2) Air/Seaports can be used in special cases, including wanting to get to an island area or otherwise inaccessible or roundabout area. (e.g. Caribbean islands.) The winner can decide to use these ports to assume a new destination. This does, however, indicate that they should give info on both the winning destination and the new embarking destination. We should use this minimally and only in cases where it will have an impact. (i.e. We don't want to miss the Caribbean islands nor getting to another continent.)
3) We should cover as much of a country as is reasonable before leaving it. I don't mind zig-zagging, but we should have a general direction; currently, south/southeast for example... What I suggest is that we hit every country plus every province/state/region in them as well. What's the point in running across the world if you don't actually hit everything, eh?
I would, of course, like to hear your feedback.
