Maps made on or after 2025-04-03 default to world map scoring no matter the region(s) covered by the map.

For example, this map https://www.geoguessr.com/maps/67eef4db4f683c194413d2a4 (Malaysia Meta Practice) should only contain Malaysia locations, so in theory if one guesses a country like India they should receive 0 points (like with this map https://www.geoguessr.com/maps/634050c7fc09dbb1e6c107c6), but instead you get around 500.
