Click START to begin - then fill in the 100 squares with World countries (see NAMING NOTE below) based on the categories in the rows and cells. For example, if you are looking at a cell with 'Asia' in its row, and 'Starts With A' in the column, that cell can be filled in with 'Armenia.' Many shortened names of countries are accepted, such as DRC, CAR, UAE, UK, US, etc. Answering a country which doesn't fit in any remaining unanswered cell will end the quiz.
Occasionally a cell may not have a qualifying answer, in which case it will appear blank and be a gimme. After completing the quiz you can simply click RESTART to play again.
Please note that 'star on flag' does not include a representation of the Sun.
Scoring is based on 100 points for each correct (or blank) square, and 5 points are subtracted for every second used on the quiz. So you are rewarded for getting squares quickly, however be careful as not to name a country which doesn't qualify for an open cell.
NAMING NOTE: You must type a '.' (period) after a country name or abbreviation to submit it, to prevent entering a country you don't want to (i.e. Guinea when you want to enter Guinea Bissau). For country naming purposes, the following names are used: Cote d'Ivoire, Timor-Leste.

I lost my streak of 63 because it was between 572 million and 571.3 million
This is my absolute favorite quiz on this site. Darin, you outdid yourself with this one
Thanks, appreciate it!
Seeing 7 or 8 different circles on the screen made me think it would be a fun challenge to try and order them largest to smallest: perhaps a suggestion for a separate quiz? Start with 3 circles, add one after each correct ordering, and see how many you can get?
Can anyone beat my record? Chose wrong between a 709,128,175 circle and a 709,498,818 one. 0.052%!
Unlucky, but at least you kinda got it early on
Whew
This quiz gets even more interesting if once in a while there is no circle in east Asia 🙂
