Why is it not eligible to points?

No ability to zoom in on the map? Makes the middle eastern capitals hard to distinguish.

Agree - if there's 'zoom' capability, no extra time needed. Without magnification, it's just hit & miss - even with glasses!

Not loving the slider for the answers. Too fumbly, especially when using a touchpad. Just use a grid like the old quizzes.

As long as you're going to insist on the technicality that the capital of Sri Lanka isn't Colombo, the least you can do is spell it right! :) (Jayawardenepura, not Jayawardenapura)

I have to agree with the comments above. Overlapping circles on this type of quiz (one of my favourites) doesn't leave a nice feeling - and the slider is annoying in the extreme, especially as similar quizzes have the answers all laid out from the word go. I very much appreciate the trouble Quizmaster goes to and I'm just trying to be constructive :-)

Would be good quiz except for the Jerusalem/Beirut/ etc. as mentioned already. A enlargement of that area would be good.

We're working to see if we can get zooming to work legibly. It's tough because you already interact with the map by clicking possible answers.

Alright zooming on these quizzes is now live, hopefully that helps with the close cities!

I noticed in the pulldown menu when you answer something correctly it turns green. Same with the quiz I did before this (newly reset african capitals). Didn't correct answer used to disappear from pulldown menu's? That was much better, saved a lot of time.

First get the ones you know out of the way so you are left with a shorter list, and can see the ones you are not sure about all at once, helps with deciding what would could go where. It saves a lot of time scrolling regardless, I spend most of the time scrolling.

I don't know if Quizmaster or Stewart are already aware of this bug, but cycling through cities when zoomed in shrinks down the dots and makes them almost invisible

Same as Crem - dots disappeared after zooming in a couple of times.

Ran out of time. Need a another 45 seconds. Ran out of time after selecting Amman.

37 of 48 with 2 wrong answers. The rest are due to the clock running out.

You can zoom by clicking the magnifying glass on the right hand side of the toolbar just above the map!

Tel Aviv is the capital of Israel

Does the UN get to decide? Or do you think the presence of embassies make it the capital? Does the govt. of Israel have a say in where its capital is?

Here's a clue: go to the Tel Aviv page on Wikipedia and do a search for "capital" and you'll find your answer.

Some are difficult to make out as there is no zoom function. managed 47/48. Aah. Now I've read the comments, and there is a zoom. I'll use that next time.

Bruh, I cant even see in the Stans or around Isreal.

Also I def barely even made it on the clock.

Other than that I did very well, just didnt know where Kuala Lumpur and Bandar are exactly. I mixed up 2 in Stans, screwed up the entire Isreal blob and mixed up Qatar and Bahran.

Darn Bishkek and Dushanbe. I still struggle to remember which is which.
