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.
Name the world straits designated by the markers on the map. Some are classified as channels/passages/gulfs/etc. Just answer with the main name (no need for 'Strait of').
In 5 minutes, choose the correct bollard image for each country shown. Click START to begin and you will be asked to double-click on the image for the country displayed. Choosing correctly will move on to the next country, incorrectly will have a 5 second penalty.
I feel like this would work really well as a map quiz! In this format it can be hard to keep track of what you are missing and what you already typed, especially for China and India. Would be super cool with a version where you could see the locations of the missing cities!
To everyone interested, I found the solution! Just go to https://hugequiz.com/quizzes/world-largest-cities/ and, if you’re a premium member, type #475# (or whatever the current number of 1M cities are), otherwise just type the nearest cap, and there you go!
Honestly what is with the timing on some of these quizzes? Even if I could think of all of these cities in rapid succession and typed a hundred wpm I still wouldn’t have enough time to type them all.
I respect all the work you put into these quizzes, and appreciate that you’re trying to mix it up to keep it interesting with the time bonuses. But I feel like most people would just prefer to simply have the time to exhaust their knowledge fully, because as it’s set up now it’s as much, if not more, about knowing what order to type the answers in rather than whether you know the answers or not. Example: You could know 98% of the answers, but if the answers you don’t know include, say, a couple in China, a couple in India, and one in Japan, you have zero hope of having enough time to type all the answers you know. Anyway, just one man’s opinion. Again, regardless of my critiques, I thank you and appreciate you for putting this all together!
Some of these seem not right. For example Oslo, Vienna and Copenhagen are included although they have far less then 1m inhabitants, Tokyo has way less then in Reality as well… What numbers are used here?

Bonus: No time limit there!

This quiz is basically live, even though the date updated date may be in the past. It’s current with citypopulation.de at all times 🙂

there are bonuses along the way for almost all quizzes, and double time for PremIum members.

citypopulation.de…all of those are over 1 million
Vienna definitely has more than a million…you might be right about Oslo and Copenhagen though…
Wikipedia — Population of 11th (10th?) Largest city in USA — 1,028,225 (US, TX)
that’s an estimated 2022 population – I’m using the 2020 census. I do update with estimates every few years but haven’t yet. Maybe next year.
