My combo has 2 fewer characters:

au

br

ch

co

do

ga

ge

gu

in

is

it

la

mo

no

sa

so

sp

su

to

tu

un

Used these pairs to make the nonsensical sentence "to undo col age is such brit mono so tug us a gasp in au". I can't touch type so 7 seconds will have to do ;)

Yes, you're right! I think 42 is optimal, my reasoning must have been flawed last time unless any of the relevant type-ins have changed.

0.3% of people who took this got 100% xddd

I'm one of them.

It's just how fast you recognize which small countries you missed.

Lebanon, Gambia, and the microstates of europe were missed quite a bit lol

Edit: 51,000 people took this, and if 0.3 % of people got 100% does that mean that only 153 people got 100%? If so wow...
