Type 'easy' or 'hard' to begin the quiz. Easy is a 2-degree grid, hard is a 1-degree grid. Then, try to name the largest UK 1K+ cities 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.
btw are Russian cities counted when determining the closer larger city?
also it would be good to have a quiz on the cities which are the farthest from any city
Yeah they are counted for that – will add a note in description.
how are these ranked?
by distances to the city larger than it. For instance #2 is Ponta Delgada all the way in the azores, with #1 being London, since the closest larger city than it is Moscow, or Istanbul
similar to the US version of this not including AK, I didn’t include Russian cities in the answers as they would be half of them 🙂
Not if you used only European Russia… at least give us Europe’s 2nd largest city — MOCKBA (as it would be spelled in the native language of it’s country)…
I did use only Euro Russia and it was half the answers
Well it covers 40% of Europe’s land area so makes sense.
they dont use latin script so you spelled it wrong. be respectful to other cultures
