If you do not provide clues... You must take away the yellow assigned box. We can't just guess what box you decided to put answers in.

The clue is by population size. The quiz is fine the way it is

If I didn't include the yellow box, you'd get 5 answers for China, and 2 for Japan, United States, and India respectively.

Sort of a weird list (even if it does match a Wikipedia page). Some metro areas generally considered to be enormous are excluded.

And the order is a bit weird too. It's strange to see London, but not Manila, Jakarta, or Moscow.

I gets a bit frustrating when every quizmaker seems to have a different source for the metro areas. For the first I assumed it'd be China/Guangzhou, at the second box I tried China, Mexico, Indonesia, India and gave up.

Yeah, I don't want to go to Wikipedia first to see which list of metro areas you had in mind. Quizmaster has pretty much taught us to trust his numbers, from citypopulation.de, which are much more up to date anyway.

I'll use that source next quiz. Using it in this quiz would just be completely different answers.
