A fun suggestion:
It’d be neat if we could have the option to have only a certain color (or population range) displayed on the map. So, if someone playing this quiz wanted to answer all the 25k-50k cities first (all the orange ones), they could choose to have only those orange markers displayed. Or if they wanted to guess all the 100k-250k cities first (so all the green ones), they could choose to have only those green ones displayed and then move on to the rest.
Just an idea.

This is only a lower range though. It’d be nice to have an upper range as well.
I’m simply talking about having an option to only have a certain color of markers displayed on the map. For instance, there could be a “hide” button next to each population range in the Population Range section which would hide that population range’s color markers, which you could “unhide” any time you wanted. Kind of like the button right next to “End Quiz” that hides or unhides all the markers.
Pukualani is misspelled as Pukulani
It’s spelled “Pukalani” which is how the quiz has it.
Sorry, right as ever 🙂
This one should be free for everyone all the time, since it is such a basic quiz that people could be looking for online.
Was San Tan Valley, AZ recently incorporated? I’ve never seen it in my previous play-throughs on this quiz.
Yep.
And now I’m seeing a St. George, LA. Did this one recently get incorporated too? Or did it vastly shoot up in population?
Newly incorporated.
I would LOVE a way to select the number of cities by minimum population rather than number- i.e. type ’75k’ or something similar to play with all cities over 75k population.
Seconding this!
I think some of these are out of order. For example, I selected 575 cities. The 574th appeared to be 68,181 people. But the 575th appeared to be 68,245.

Good point. I may have also overlooked a city or two.
This was the bomb, highly recommend to all
Hi, Is there a way we could pause and SAVE the game? I mean whenever the computer crashes during a twelve-hour session…
no sorry, no way to do that.
This is starting to tick me off… At the 2500 level, there is one yellow dot in northern Lower Michigan, around the area of Pellston, Petoskey and Traverse City, but it isn’t any of those three.
This is ticking me off because I am a native Michigander.
it’s a charter township, starts with ‘G’ – charter townships are included in the MI places.
Yeah, I know about the inclusion of my home State’s Charter Townships — the city directly North of my hometown is a Charter Township.
The city immediately to the south of the city I live in has more than 25,000 people, but has been guessed less than 13% of the time on the 10K level.
I don’t believe this… but Detroit, Michigan actually gained population.
2016: around 650,000 (data from Detroit Historical Museum)
2018: around 673,000
That is incredibly surprising, considering they haven’t gained population since the 1950s, and they are nearly at 1/3 of the population they used to be.
Tell me about it! It’s kinda cool to see that, though, especially since I live in Metro Detroit.
Downtown development is booming, and townhouses along the east riverfront can’t be built fast enough. You can still buy a house in the outer neighborhoods for pennies, but a 2 bedroom within walking distance to Comerica Park will run you half a million.
US Census Data is giving me this:
Detroit 2016: 676,883
Detroit 2018: 672,662
Always a favorite, brother. Way to go!
