I feel silly for missing Tangier. We have a very popular classic game over here, "Star of Africa", and one of the spots to start in that game is Tangier. Have played it often as a kid.

It took me forever to get the Dutch city, because I always forget that in English you translate the name and that changes the first letter. Got it in the end and only missed one of the Chinese cities. I'm really enjoying this series, thanks! :)

You could may be accept other spellings for timbuktu (tombouctou, timbouctou). I tried all the variants of the french name but I didn't get the english spelling.

Favorite series of mine by far. Only complaint is that there is way too much time.

Why, if you are one of the 'Typing Nerds' I can understand it, but otherwise it is a knowledge quiz not a typing exam. There are plenty of typing challenges on other sites if that is what you live for.

Yeah I don't get that comment either. The quiz automatically finishes after you correctly guess every answer. It's not like you have to sit there, twiddling your thumbs, waiting for the time to run down.

Exactly xarnac, if it said "remark" instead of complaint I could sort of get it (though not in this case, but in some cases, 5 mins are given for something you are done with in 2 wether you know them all or because you dont know them and well then there is nothing left to do either). But complaining indicates it somehow negatively effects you if there is too much time.

Well, I can only think of two significant cities right there: Townsville in Queensland, and Tauranga in New Zealand, but they're likely to be found by probably no more than 3% of people.

Only 10% got Taiyuan. I would have got Tauranga (and Townsville) :-)

Torshavn would be a fun substitute for the Dutch one - and it's a capital.

Why the need to substitute the dutch one? There is no need for that, it is rather well known. Especially with the international court of justice (and many other international organisations like Europol) there. If you had to lose one it would logically be Taiyuan. Which trails behind massively.

I knew the answer for Tegucigalpa, but just didn't know how to spell it. I even tried to google it, but I butchered the spelling so badly that I didn't get any relevant results. Hah, serves me right I guess.

You could accept Tarifa for Tanger. The dot covers both even when zoomed in.

Granted Tanger is a much more important town, but..

Pls accept Tarifa for Tangiers, it's on the exact opposite of Tangiers and you can't see whether the dot is in Europe or Africa so thanks

Out of curiosity, what's special about Teresina? Every city here is fairly large or notable but then Teresina breaks that trend.
+1
Level 78

Well, it's a state capital in Brazil, making it an important city in its region. It also has a decently large population, if compared to some of the other cities here. I also assume they wanted to include a South American city to balance the quiz.

On another note, it always surprises me a bit that people seem to know extremely few Brazilian cities here, as they are often some of the least guessed even when compared to other more obscure and smaller cities from also smaller countries.

I believe it mainly has to do with Brazil being at the periphery of the European and North American worldview. I remember seeing travel statistics for Jetpunkers and South America was lower on the list in general. Personally I never heard of Teresina but it is a great opportunity to learn something new :)

Knowledge of South America is kind of limited in general, I'm afraid.
