World City Grid 3rd Largest City Challenge

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 THIRD LARGEST World 50K+ 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 3nd largest city accepted in that square (100 being you named the 3nd largest city). If you guess the largest city it will be based on the ratio of the 3nd largest city's population to the largest.

At the end of the quiz the 3nd largest city will show in each unanswered square, and for those answered the 3nd largest city will be listed next to your score if you didn't answer it.

World Closest 1M+ Agglomeration Random Location Challenge

The object of this quiz is to name to closest World 1M+ agglo to each purple marker that appears. When you begin the quiz you will be placed in a random location within a continent and between 60 North and 55 South latitude (might be over a body of water, but won't be over an ocean) which will be denoted by a purple marker. Name the closest 1M+ World agglo to this marker by typing in the main city/agglo name followed by a '.' (period). You will then be given a score up to 100 (100 being the closest 1M+ agglo) based on how far away your agglo is in relation to how far away the closest one is. You get 25 agglos for a maximum of 2500 points. If you name a agglo that has the same name as another possible answer, don't worry - the closest agglo of that name will be chosen.

I added a drop-down list to choose your city now, you’ll see it when you begin typing a city name to start the quiz with.

Could it please show all missed cities or something similar? Or otherwise at least one should also be able to choose whether to sort by population, distance to the original city or how frequently it was guessed by people in general

Could it please be all missed ones or something similar? Or at least they should also be sorted by population and not just by distance to the original city (like choosing whether to sort by distance or population)
