What about still having to answer the 16 hint questions, but if you guess the final answer you are shown the initial letter of those 16 answers?

My original idea was that someone can see only picture when guess final aswer. But parts of picture are hiden answer components. I need to make sme kind of connection between final answer and components like in decoder quizzes, but I do not know ow to do that.

This would kind of mess up the number of answers but you could add 16 answers, one for each initial letter, that have Italy as a type-in

Great quiz! My suggestion would be that if you guess the map quiz question, it does not give you all the other answers. That way you'd have to answer all 17 questions to get maximum points. (I tried "Italy" after about 6 answers, after the shape of the country started to appear, then suddenly I couldn't answer all the other questions cos the quiz just stopped and gave me 100% anyway)

A complicated puzzle to make would be 'which countries create most interesting pieces of puzzles when divided in a 4 x 4 grid'? Where uninteresting pieces are for example A4 and B4 in the case of italy because they are all white - similarly all black pieces would be uninteresting. I wonder if Italy is first...
+2
Level 77
Jan 21, 2016
I think white pieces are important when you trying to imagine whole picture and you do not know all answers because white pieces (or black) are helping you wiht creating image in your head. Certainly 4 x 4 is not best solution for every country. We will see it in future :)

Than this is the right time to ask you all, which version do you thing is better? This one or this? I can not promise, but maybe Quizmaster wants to make changes if majority likes second one. I am neutral here, just want to know what do you think so this kind of quiz can be even better. Thanks :)

liked the iceland one better cause it doesn't reveal the grid once you've guessed the answer before completing all questions. maybe don't show the coordinates of the tiles of the grid. but great work on both formats!

Sweden through sea and now Canada through Hans Island. So maybe specify land border and mention no overseas territories in the caveats.

Nice! I wasted my time trying to spell the first person to reach the South Pole's last name tho. 😢 And by the time I ran out of time (Serbia's capital; don't think I'm ignorant, I almost got into my school final GeoBee before I moved) I could already see it was Italy. Try to put a country that nobody could tell until almost the end :)

You could add a twist by shuffling the squares of the map! Otherwise, many countries, especially when they are as distinctly shaped as Italy, become recognisable very early. Still a great quiz!
