Antigua, St. Lucia and St. Vincent are not on this map. You have the black marks situated somewhere in Africa and they are in the Caribbean Sea.

This is not my map to begin with, this is the map for this quiz https://www.jetpunk.com/user-quizzes/6121/countries-of-the-world-with-an-empty-map I will tell the person who made that quiz about it, Thanks for the feedback!

Guadalupe and Martinique show up as tiny, tiny, tiny specks for the nation of France. I trudged through all the Lesser Antilles independent nations trying to get an answer to take.

I hit refresh and got it again. Is it the only thing that shows up in the Lesser Antilles?

For the record, Cyprus looks more a part of Asia than ever on this game.

40/50 and ran out of time. Most of the ones I missed I just couldn't see on the map as they were too small or maybe not even there. Couldn't see them even after being told which they were.

I think I can fix that, I could take the small ones out of the pool of countries that can be chosen. Thanks for the feedback!

I am aiming for a sub 1-minute time, at the moment my second run was the fastest with 1:02 and I haven't really been able to come close to it since. I need a combination of short country names and making few typos which requires quite a bit of luck.

I was just typing the last small island I searched around for and ran out of time. 49 out of 50 only beats 43.8% of quiz takers. Pretty impressive bunch of brainiacs around here.

Level 75
Apr 17, 2020
I got 46, and it says better than 50.3%, so some peabrains must have come in since you tried it! (The average is 40 apparently, but if I beat 50% doesn't that mean that I basically got the average? I'm not good at maths...)
+1
Level 78
May 2, 2020
but the 50% you beat will bring the average down more than the 50% you didn't beat. i.e. 10/50 brings down the average more than 48/50 brings up the average

Wow, yeah, there are some weird ones, just doing some back of the napkin math there are about 1,532,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 combinations, (2 ^ 196 / 1000)(The thousand part is to account for the fact that there has to be 50) the exact number does not really matter, the point is, there are a LOT of combinations!

I know, it was a lot more than I was expecting too! In short form it is about 1,532 quindecillion, which is so big that it is flagged as not being a real word, which infers that auto-correct thinks I am making a number up, which I find quite funny!

Why are so many island nations visible even though they don't count toward the quiz? I could see all the small African island nations and all the oceanic island nations, even though only Comoros and Mauritius were part of the 50 random nations. Doesn't make any sense, seems sloppy
