Europe 10K+ City Shrinking Coverage Challenge
DirectionsYou begin with a radius of 500km. Enter Europe 10K+ city names and all 10K+ European cities within that radius will fill in, HOWEVER each time you use a circle the radius will shrink by 5%. Try to cover as many cities as possible as the circles get smaller. Time is not part of the score on this quiz.
hugequiz Premium members will see the 25 largest missed cities at the end of the quiz as large, purple markers.
Notes for this quiz: answering a city that has the same name in multiple locations will reduce the circle 5% in radius for each unique city that matches, so if you enter ‘Brest’ – it will fill one of the 2 with whatever radius you are at, then shrink it 5% and fill the other, and again shrink it 5% more until you make your next guess. So it may not be wise to use a common city name. Also, to enter a city such as ‘Moscow’ without entering ‘Mos’ (a city in Spain) you can simply type for example “xmoscow” then delete the x, thereby preventing you from typing ‘mos’ – there are a handful of cities like this.
Any chance you’ll be making more of these shrinking coverage challenges? So fun
yeah i can 🙂
Aha, so the trick is to start with the country you know the least cities in, then gradually shift eastward towards my home area where I know most of them. And figure out the optimal radius at which Reykjavik will cover the entirety of that freaking Iceland
Exactly, and learn to type Thessaloniki instead of Athens and Biarritz instead of Bordeaux 😉
you have to make an untimed version or with like 45mins cause the typing skills of some like me is worse than a 10yo’s
ha…sorry but this quiz is really based on time and trying to have enough left when the circles get smaller, so even though it’s not scored based on time, I have to leave it as a shorter quiz.
I love this concept. i wonder how that one guy got 8800+
Great quiz
let me know your thoughts on this new type of coverage quiz
