Africa 50K+ Cities 15×15 Blackout (Premium Only)

Directions

Fill in the 225 squares with Africa 50K+ cities based on the categories in the top row and the geographical location given in the cell. For example, if you are looking at a cell with ‘Egypt’ in its row, and ‘Starts With A’ in the column, that cell can be filled in with ‘Alexandria.’

Occasionally a cell may not have a qualifying answer, in which case it will appear blank and be a gimme.

hugequiz Premium members will see missed answers in red – they will be the largest city which qualified in each cell.

This quiz is only available to Premium members.

Africa 50K+ City Grid Blackout

Type 'easy' or 'hard' to begin the quiz. Easy is a 10-degree grid, hard is a 5-degree grid. Then, name any 50K+ African city in each grid square which fits the category label for each square.

LETTER: means the city starts with that letter.
NUMBER RANGE: (such as 2-5, 10+) means the city contains that many letters (excluding spaces and special characters).
POPULATION RANGE: (such as 250-500K) means the city has that range for its population.
2+ WORDS means the city name has 2 or more words (words denoted by a space or hyphen).

At the end of the quiz the largest population missed answer will show in each square.

Africa Capitals Triplets Blackout Challenge

Upon clicking START you will be presented with a 5×5 grid of 25 of the capital cities of African countries.

The object of this quiz is to choose the top 3 in the given category for the capitals shown in the grid. When you begin you’ll be given 25 different capitals plus a category to name the top 3 in, which will display just above the grid. For example, if the category says ‘Top 3 Largest Population’ you are to click on the 3 capitals with the largest population. If it says ‘Top 3 Lowest Population Density’ you are to click on the 3 whose population density is the lowest. You can deselect the first or second capital you chose on by re-clicking it, but when you choose the 3rd capital they will be submitted, removed from the grid, and you will get a score from 0-100 based on how close your set of 3 comes to the optimum set of 3 (which will be shown as a ‘Rank’ on top out of the # of possible sets of 3 for the last choice). When you’ve answered all 8 sets of 3 leaving only 1 capital the quiz is over. You get a 100 points bonus for completing the sets making for a total possible score of 2500.

Note: I set the Vatican's Cost Of Living to the same as Rome's, as there is no data for it.
