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 Asian cities (min 50K population) 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.

34 character solution for beginner:
bago batu bau jian kut norilsk oral serov
why does 1st place for beginner have more cities than the maximum
4482, when there are 4481 max
the number of 50K+ asian cities change constantly via updates on citypopulation.de – it should be back over 4481 soon.
I got 9 seconds on beginner with this:
aksu,harbin,serov,norilsk,yan,sur,chennai,hangzhou,palembang,dili

aksu,harbin,serov,norilsk,yan,sur,chennai,lahor,palembang,dili
I got intermediate down to 50 secs, I’ll get it under but I don’t have the cities optimized yet and some of them take multiple tries to type. Right now its norilsk, novy urengoy, yakutsk, magadan, tomsk, petropavl, astana, ulaanbaatar, harbin, sapporo, istanbul, shanghai, delhi, hyderabad, mumbai, sur, semarang, manila, davao, ho chi minh, cebu, kuala lumpur, singapore, dili, damascus, and sometimes chennai if I mess up ho chi minh
I beat you! My typing isn’t great but I have a solution that is 98 characters (23 cities) so I managed to get lower
Actually ive just found a 88 character (20 city) solution
os and yan are always useful and short, it would lower character count
I did it all in sub 10 seconds. It took me over 20 tries
