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 SECOND LARGEST city in each grid square. 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). You are given a score from 0 to 100 based on your answer's population compared to the 2nd largest city accepted in that square (100 being you named the 2nd largest city). If you guess the largest city it will be based on the ratio of the 2nd largest city's population to the largest.
At the end of the quiz the 2nd largest city will show in each unanswered square, and for those answered the 2nd largest city will be listed next to your score if you didn't answer it.

5 minutes for 250 pairs of capitals cities is not enough
Ah let me up that a bit.
30 minutes feels way too much. Can you make it so that the bonuses are x).5, or probably a total of 10 min?
I’m going to leave as is. It’s only 15 min for non premium members.
Which capital did you use for South Africa ? I feel Gaborone – Bloemfontein should have been accepted in the ’50’ version but it didn’t.
Pretoria – per directions in countries with multiple capitals I chose the administrative.
To keep consistency with the other capital quizzes on the site, Ramallah should be the capital of Palestine istead of East Jerusalem.
i accept both – East Jerusalem is the one that happens to be displayed for this quiz.
