Simple and fun idea but tough when you don't know all the country shapes. I only got 4/10 in the first round and then 8/10 in the second which was way easier including a very visually split Australia for example.

That took longer than it should've. Getting 8-9 was easy enough, but that 10th one!

This is a really cool idea. I went round each continent and was getting worried when I had done everything except Africa and had only found 3/10.... but it turned out I just had loads in north-west Africa!

Man, I don't think I've ever done worse on a border quiz, ever. I love border quizzes but I had a hard time spotting the extra lines in the time allotted. Nice challenge.

Time is fine imo, eventhough I missed 3 this first time (I wasted alot of time in an area I could have sworn had an extra border, so tried all the surrounding countries with no luck...)

Gonna have another go. A little bit of challenge is more fun imo, as long as it is feasible.

Mexico got me, along with PNG first go

edit: got PNG again and the split really looks like it's just a separated island...

Also got Sudan and Chad's splits, which together are one line which was weird to look at...

Also, apparently line breaks don't work...

A little more time, please!

I find I have to zoom in to check, but the zooming in and out takes such a large proportion of the short amount of time available. The geographical knowledge element is reduced in value because of the time constraint, imho :-)

It's a great concept, but the fake borders load last so it's easy to spot some of them (even accidentally) when the map loads. Also some of them have a slightly different texture compared to regular borders which make them stand out more, or maybe I'm too used to the usual borders.

I was already planning on doing a States version of my quiz after my exams are finished... (Along with continental versions too)

They just take so long to make I couldn't justify the time spent on them until my final exams are finished.

If you don't mind I'd prefer doing them myself. The "extra border" series was originally one of my first map series on the site, so it's got a special place in my heart. As I said, I would've made the other versions sooner had it not been for being so busy with my final year of university.

The countries Tajikistan and Kyrgyzstan are so whackily shaped that it's really so difficult to find out whether they're broken or normal. :-|

And the countries like Portugal, Iceland, Sri Lanka, NZ which are kind of isolated and small... It makes noticing them harder.

Anyways, every quiz has some extreme points, and these are examples of this quiz!

Brilliant quiz @Stewart!

The borders are intentionally the same design as the real borders, otherwise you're not looking for what's "wrong" with the map but just where a dark border is, which is less fun in my opinion.
