In part they cheat because th3 above share how to, lol, but I wish they wouldn't. I have 171 and it's only 81.5%, and I don't think 18%+ have a 172+. Doesn't matter, if the typists want to pick up points for their data entry skills I can still use it as a learning tool.
It would be easier to cheat by splitting your screen, showing the answers on one window by clicking give up immediately and then typing those answers in on the second window
Does Rapa Nui (Isla de Pascua, Easter Island) belong in this quiz too? Think it might if Galapagos Islands and Falklands Islands are being included. It wasn't included in the Oceania quiz from this series. Also, what continent is South Georgia considered to be part of?
blizzrd33, isn't Easter island reckoned to be in Oceania? South Georgia is part of Antarctica. Not sure where Tristan da Cunha should go, though. And I believe that the Netherlands Antilles and Trinidad (though not Tobago) should be included as they are surely part of S America.
Okay, so Cauca controls Caldas for some reason, it is both called Cauca and lights up when you type Cauca, rather than being Caldas. I couldn't understand how I missed something in Colombia.
The Ñuble region in Chile appears as one of the answers (which is correct) but it doesn't show up on the map, where it is still shown as part of the Biobío region.
I know some countries quite well - got all of Argentina and Brazil, most of Chile and Colombia, about half of Bolivia and Uruguay, but did rather poorly elsewhere, mainly only getting the ones that shared a name with a city or significant geographical feature that I could guess at.

Just find each country and it flies by in no time (alright maybe some time)...
Probably, but they're really only cheating themselves.

Doing the individual countries quizzes for this first is definitely the play though, lol
