First choose any Europe 10K+ pop city by entering it and choosing it in the drop-down box. Then, name any Europe 10K+ city in each 100 km circle/ring as the rings expand outward from your city of choice, trying to name SECOND LARGEST city in each circle. The first circle will include your city of choice as a possible answer.
PLEASE NOTE - You must type a '.' (period) after each city to submit it to prevent answering another city with a name you would be have to type to get your answer. If multiple cities have the name you submitted, only the largest one will be counted.
You accumulate points based on the population of the city you named in relation to the second largest city in the circle. A smaller city’s point total will be the ratio of its population to the largest, so if you name a city of 75K people and the largest city has 100K, you get 75 points. Naming the largest city will get you points based on the ratio of the 2nd largest city's population to the largest city's.
When you run out of time or end the quiz, you will see the current ring’s 2nd largest city at right (under ‘Answer Stats’ by your coordinates).
For example, if you choose ‘Paris’ – you will be shown a circle of radius 100 km centered at Paris. Naming any city in this circle (including Paris) will cause another ‘ring’ of radius 100 km to appear outside that circle, however - you will want to try naming the SECOND LARGEST city you can to get more points. After completing that circle, you now need to name any 10K+ Europe city in the new ring (but not within any previous circles/rings), again trying to name the 2nd largest city. If there are not two cities within the next ring of that distance, the ring will keep expanding by that distance until two cities fall within it.
They are part of Denmark, they just don’t fill in on the map on the quiz cause they are smaller.
At the end of my game it still shows vatican city in the missed list.
The games stopped by itself when I reached 47/47.
Transnistria is a country especially if you’re counting kosovo which is in a weird UN state of not but is
None of the major quiz sites count it as a country so I don’t.
Sorry but acording to UN “Kosovo” is not a country
It’s regarded as a country by other large quiz sites, so I regard it as one as well.
According to MOST (101) countries represented in the UN, Kosovo is a country. The few holdouts are literally insane. It’s been 15 years. Time to suck it up and deal with it already.
Shouldn’t the game automatically stop once you have the 47 countries?
yeah it does – maybe just a one-time bug? i just ran it and it ended after 47.
Same has happened for me just now. Got all 47 and clock still counting down
very odd – i’ll take a look, but i’ve done it a few times and it always ends at 47. did it say ’47/47′ for the countries gotten?
