World City Grid 2nd 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 SECOND LARGEST 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 2nd largest city accepted in that square (100 being you named the 2nd largest city). If you guess the largest city it will be based on the ratio of the 2nd largest city's population to the largest.

At the end of the quiz the 2nd largest city will show in each unanswered square, and for those answered the 2nd largest city will be listed next to your score if you didn't answer it.

I hadn’t heard that Equatorial Guinea has a new capital. So when the name came up, you all know where I clicked.

I had most trouble with Pacific nations as it was not always clear on which island the capital is located.

This reminds me a lot of Globetrotter XL. I’d love more games like this, with other cities.

Would it be possible to add an average points per city score/leaderboard too?
