That was quite hard to do in the given time. Nope, not "quite", extremely is the best word.

Indeed. Strategy: type "ia", "an" (for stan) and "nd" (for land) Then go through the blue countries and type the first two letters (which is a lot easier than the last two letters), which may be the last two letters of other countries. This will turn them blue, and start a chain reaction which will burn through your countries pretty fast.

Superlaggy on tablet, screen freezes 4-5 seconds after each answer. So it basically was just a whole lot of waiting and a few "ow it moved!"

Like the idea though! (Not sure about the time though even without lag, it seems you will just be racing superfast without even noticing what is happening to the countries on the screen, which I am sure will have taken quite some effort. Enjoyment is key :) )

It doesn't seem as though you are being consistent, QM. If USA is required in other quizzes, then why isn't ca accepted here? If US was all that's required in other quizzes, then it would make sense that es would be the answer here, just as you accept om for the UK rather than nd. Would you please share your reasoning with us? Or is today national "Make Them Whine Day"?

USA is short for United States of America though, UK is short for United kingdom. For none of the other countries the official names are used (besides obviously for those few where they do not differ from the informal one). So that is a weird comparison. They only ask for the common abbreviation to be written in full.

Another point that sort of matters it is not like US is accepted on any of these quizzes only USA, so if it starts with un- it makes sense that it ends with -ca

Making the quiz so short makes it an exercise in typing speed versus actually taking a quiz. Would like to be able to look at the map and make calculated decisions instead of having to go through the alphabet.

266 now, that's enough for my nerves today. Don't see me getting 100% if it was close I might try again. But this feels impossible (unless you write it down or make words from the needed letters, but not gonna do that)

I'm pretty sure the 1% who get 100% either practiced more than a few hundred times or cheated in some way. Personally, I was curious how hard this would be with all the two letter combinations in front of me... so I made that list! It took me half a dozen tries to even type all those combinations in so fast in alphabetical order. 141 combinations in 1:30 is pretty dang tough with all the weird letter combinations.
