First, a note: I started making this blog a pretty long time back so the takes and some other information will be outdated for the first few.
What is a 'Mega-Quiz'?
By my standards, a mega-quiz is a quiz that is extremely comprehensive in a topic or shows a lot of effort. These are usually the type of quizzes that give you an hour and might have a ridiculously detailed SVG, sometimes with wordy titles and hard-to-explain concepts.
500 Biggest Cities in the World on a Map
500 Biggest Cities in the World on a Map is a comprehensive quiz for learning cities. For most levels of JetPunkers, there are always cities where you have heard of them or could have gotten them that you will miss, always leaving room for improvement. It also helps roughly show the population distribution of countries.

Recognized, Non-Recognized Countries, and Territories of the World
Recognized, Non-Recognized Countries, and Territories of the World requires you to have a knowledge beyond the basics. It can also be used as an extensive list of everything a reasonable amount of people consider countries. It can be good to learn as it can be helpful to know classifications and it can help give a wider view of politics.

Countries of the World in 1900
There are many quizzes about countries in a specific year, but I chose Countries of the World in 1900 because it's a good in-between of current countries and modern countries. There are some pretty easy ones, but there are also a handful that are very tricky.

ALL First-Level Subdivisions of the World With a Map
ALL First-Level Subdivisions of the World With a Map is a quiz with a crazy SVG that features every single subdivision for all 196 countries, resulting in a total of 3,809 answers! I believe this is the largest SVG on the website, it was too large to upload for users, so Stewart had to upload it! It's a big challenge but you can always try the cardinal directions, any regions or peninsulas you know, capitals, and other major cities.

Name a City in EVERY Country - No Capitals
Name a City in EVERY Country - No Capitals requires you to type one of a country's eight largest cities—not too bad, you can just type their capitals, right? Except this quiz doesn't allow capitals. This forces you to think about any other cities you've heard about and tests your knowledge of each country and cities. It's a good way to diversify your city knowledge.

Hardest Quiz On JetPunk (and similar quizzes)
Hardest Quiz On JetPunk is a logic multiple-choice quiz where all of the questions tie together. It certainly is very hard, but to say it's the hardest would not be giving justice to the other quizzes on this list. If you like this, you should also check out Dimby's Lil' Self-Referencial Logic Test and their part 2, as well as The Impossible Logic Quiz by me.

1M Cities in Squares of the World Map
1M Cities in Squares of the World Map doesn't require you to know nearly as many cities as 500 Biggest Cities in the World on a Map, but you also have to know their rough area. It's definitely not as time-intensive either. There are many similar quizzes, like Countries in a Penrose Tiling of the World Map.

Draw the World Map
Draw the World Map is a really satisfying and difficult quiz. You have to name all country borders, but the country borders don't need to be between countries. These include borders with lakes, gulfs, seas, bays, and oceans! This is a really nice challenge for experts and is nice to see the map come together. Unsurprisingly, a mental picture of the world map and a strong knowledge of water regions is required.

Name 5-Letter Words A-Z - Containing Each Letter
Name 5-Letter Words A-Z - Containing Each Letter is a neat word quiz. It requires an immense vocabulary and makes you think about words in a different way. It's really comprehensive, requiring you to name a word containing each letter that starts with each letter. This means that you have to name a 5-letter word containing each letter of the alphabet starting with A, then the same with B, etc.

Name EVERY Country Type-In
Do you know those things that you can type to get an answer that aren't actually an answer? Did you know there are 412 of those, called type-ins? You can name all of them on Name EVERY Country Type-In. Yes, this is my own quiz, but I included it because it can be helpful for anyone who is curious or if they want to cut off a few letters from typing in countries.

Please let me know below if I missed any notable ones. Thank you for reading and make sure to check out the quizzes above if you haven't already!
Others, not really. I don't have the patience to take such immensely long quiz and type out hundreds (or even thousand) words.
Also, the link in 1M Cities in Square is wrong.
Anyway, nice blog!
