Type 'easy' or 'hard' to begin the quiz. Easy is a 15-degree grid, hard is a 10-degree grid. Then, try to name the largest 50K+ cities in each square IN ORDER. To name a city, you must first click on the grid square to make it have a GREEN border. Then, type in the city answer for that square followed by a '.' (a period).
The squares will start with '0/5' (or maybe fewer cities if less exist in that square). Click on a square and enter the largest city in that square not yet answered (so, the largest city if you have yet to answer a city in that square). You will then have '1/5' and need to click on that square to name the 2nd largest city, and so on until you complete all the cities up to 5 (or less if less exist). If you name an incorrect city in a square it becomes 'locked' and turns red and you can no longer accumulate cities in that square.
You receive 1 point for the largest city in a square, 2 for the 2nd largest, and so on.
At the end of the quiz the largest remaining city you haven't named will be shown in each square.
Great idea. Do you plan to do it with cities as well?
There are some city based ones just made and more coming.
This is a really fun idea. However the scale of the slider changes from country to country which effectively tips off the answer. The correct number seems to consistently be in the center-left portion (2nd quartile) of the scale.
There aren’t great solutions but using a single logarithmic scale might help.
I’ve switched it to logarithmic. Got it so it should work well now.
Thanks! Oh yeah, much harder… in a good way. Now I can’t cheat. 🙂
