Type 'easy' or 'hard' to begin the quiz. Easy is a 10-degree grid, hard is a 5-degree grid. Then, try to name the largest North American cities (min 10K 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.
“Lajemmerais” in Quebec should be renamed to “Marguerite-D’Youville”. Lajemmerais is the old name and is no longer used in most scenarios.
I’ll make both acceptable.
Below the text box it reads “Next answer bonus at 100.” but there are no time bonuses in this quiz.
“Northumberland” registers 2 answers, but only the NB county is highlighted in green, the ON one stays red.
NWT has 6 numbered census divisions, but it also now has 5 named administrative divisions, if you want to use those.
Powell River regional district in BC has been renamed “qathet”
And a suggestion: Maybe add provincial/territorial stats in the sidebar, so you can see how many divisions from each province you’ve completed without looking at the map, in line with most of your other quizzes? Or maybe population-based groupings now that the 2021 census data is out. That would be cool to see.
Seems to be missing data in Alberta, Saskatchewan, Manitoba, NWT and Newfoundland and Labrador.
please read directions – states why they are omitted.
