Great quiz! And pretty tough one too. I wonder if anyone's got all of them ;)

Thank you :D ! No, nobody ever got all, because there still are answers with 0%

Level 27

Answer stats are always rounded, I suppose. That said, as soon as <0.5% guess it correctly, the statistic shows that it's typed in by zero percent of the users.

In Nepal there should be "Kathmandu" valid as well as that "Kathmadau". That's why nobody guessed it yet.

Tokyo is now first place. Please fix.

Level 68

Jun 2, 2020

Since when. Guangzhou has about 5 million people more than Tokyo.

Level 71

Dec 24, 2020

Guangzhou is larger because Shenzhen is also included in the urban population of Guangzhou. Without Shenzhen Tokyo would be bigger

Oh, wait. Maybe not.

Level 59

Aug 23, 2019

Maybe write Singapore for the country for Singapore? I know its a city-state but it has its own government and everything and its better than just putting lines for N/A

Good quiz. can you accept "Frankfurt" for F-am-Main and Isfahan for Esfahan?

Level 71

Aug 24, 2019

Frankfurt was already a Type-In and I will add Isfahan now.

Level 57

Feb 10, 2020

Goiania is misspelled. Otherwise great quiz though. Ran out of time with 235, would have probably got around 240 if I had a few extra minutes, but timer isn't bad.

Level 79

Jul 27, 2020

Please accept 'DC' for Washington D.C., and please fill in 'The Ruhr' (so we don't have to type it) because it's not a city.

Level 79

Jul 27, 2020

Also it would be nice if you would remove the accents above some letters in some of the names, such as from Tōkyō to Tokyo etc., because their English names do not have accents.

Level 40

Just like a few more minutes. I know them all, type fast, but still can't get them in the time.

increased it to 60 mins

Level 84

The quiz inconsistently uses commas and periods as thousands separators, sometimes using both in the same number! (20.500,000)

Oh, I just realised. How did that even happen

Why are there periods instead of commas to separate numbers?
