Need more time please, an hour would be good. Also, can you accept different spellings of names please, e.g. Bruxelles also as Brussels.

The quiz will be updated for the 2020 population. Alternative spellings are fine but let's keep the timing period short to keep it fair with the previous players. Even I - the author - bearly reach the 90's percentile ranking!

What about 5 minutes longer, as it is just not doable in thirty minutes.

Okay, maybe +5 minutes is reasonable but let me also update the population for the year 2020.

If you're going to use the Scottish and Welsh flags, then you should also use the English flag for English cities, no?
NQChien

Level 63
Feb 15, 2022
Ah, I thought that too, until I realised then Northern Ireland had to use the Union Jack so the England case may be quite embarrassing.
ElT

England has its own flag, so why couldn't they use it?
NQChien
+1
Level 63
Apr 22, 2022
Because most English people would be happy with the Union Jack flag. The use of a seperate England flag only helps distinguished one city in the Northern Island - so not worth of using the England flag for now.

Is that flag used internationally? Wikipedia says that "the official flag in Northern Ireland is the Union Flag of the United Kingdom".

Got 468/500 but stumbled over a couple of unexpected spellings. I suggest adding the following alternatives:

Baranovichi, Babruysk, Barysaw, Reggio Calabria.
