Just a couple errors that I've come across (haven't gotten through the whole lot though, so there may be more): Macedonia is now officially called "North Macedonia". And the capital of Burundi is now Gitega.

I would also suggest that you extend the time considerably. The quizzes for countries and capitals respectively have a time frame of at least 12 minutes. Having to write both in one quiz - not to mention having to write all the names out - means the time frame here should be at least doubled, and then some more. Not everyone is a fast typer.

Thanks for the feedback. I changed Macedonia and Bujumbura, and extended the time to 24 minutes.

Great quiz, I do this regularly. One more change though that you should add is that Astana (capital of Kazakhstan) has been renamed to Nur-Sultan

So why exactly is KinshasaCongo taken and BrazzavilleCongo isn't? That's like lettting SeoulKorea pass but PyongyangKorea fail. (In my eyes that's -2 stars combined with Astana)

I love this quiz. I've gotten all 196 a couple of times. I get frustrated when I get all but one or two. Looking at the list below doesn't help narrow down / isolate the missing countrie(s) because it doesn't seem to be in any logical order. Guess that's why this one is labeled "hard."

Could you make it consistent? Some standard type-ins work - like UK and DRC, whilst others have to be written out in full like United Arab Emirates and Bosnia and Herzegovina. And for the USA, even US is allowed.

Such a great quiz. It really makes you learn, and I like the strictness in having to type the full country names properly. Before this, I thought I knew all the capitals but now realise I was a bit vague on some, but other quizzes let me get away with it! (Although please change US to its proper long name like the other countries!)

Got 193/196 first try and completely forgot that the Philippines, Mongolia, and the Bahamas existed. The spelling was also pretty annoying for a lot of them

The type ins are extremely inconsistent, some spellings are flat out wrong (and the correct one IS NOT ACCEPTED?!).

This could have been a super fun quiz but you made it a pain in the ass.

Great quiz! I have to admit that I cheated with the Sri Lanka answer (other JetPunk quizzes accept "Sri Kotte," and I've never learned to spell the rest of it!)

One suggestion--can you accept "&" for "and"?

I've just finished it. 188/196.

I have some comments:

- "Vatican city, Vatican city": Everywhere else we write simply "Vatican" for the the state. Why not here?

- The whole name for the capital of Sri Lanka: Everywhere else, the abreviation "Kotte" is accepted. Again, why not here?

I love this quiz, but it really messes with my brain. I was so focused on not missing any small island countries that I managed to miss Croatia, Peru and Japan of all places. I'll be back to redeem myself :"D
