World City Random Grid

Directions

First choose a difficulty by typing ‘beg’, ‘int’, ‘adv, or ‘exp’ – Beginner is 15 degrees, Intermediate 10 degrees, Advanced 5 degrees, and Expert 2.5 degrees. A grid of your chosen square size will be placed randomly on the map. Then, enter the largest city (min 50K population) in each grid square of the size based on your difficulty. Green squares contain answers. Adv and Exp levels may take a few moments to load.

hugequiz Premium members will see the top 25 missed cities at the end of the quiz as purple markers.

Enter level to begin ('beg', 'int', 'adv', or 'exp').

The coordinates of Coari (in the State of Amazonas, Brazil) are a quite a bit off, by about 75 miles

Can’t for the life of me figure out what the answer is on intermediate mode when the square falls east of Manaus, west of Belem, south of Macapa and north of Sinop – Santarem seems like it should be the answer but the quiz won’t accept it. Also is Merauke not in your dataset?
Otherwise, great quiz! might be the best on this site, thanks Darin 🙂

Merauke is listed in this dataset with the latest (2010) census showing a population of 86,782 so it should be in the quiz, no?

Looking at the Indonesia Largest Cities quiz it is there in the database, it’s just using urban communes data which split the town into 8 different urban communes (all of which within the town itslef) with a combined population of 86,782 while the district as a whole has 87,634 both using 2010 census.
I really don’t understand your reasoning for opting to use urban communes cutting the settlements up into countless pieces instead of overcounting them slightly.

I don’t think anyone want to learn the urban communes of: Bambu Pemali, Karang Indah, Kelapa Lima, Mandala, Maro, Rimba Jaya, Samkai and Seringgu Jaya instead of Merauke.

Tarlac (Philippines) seems to have the wrong population count: according to citypopulation.de, it has 271455 from the 2020 census, but it seems to show up as 385398 (I got the count from the city coverage quiz)

Is there a way to do this without a time restraint?

I love this quiz! I particularly enjoy the random element. Unfortunately, I do not get the stats when I finish. It keeps saying ‘calculating stats’. Do you not get stats if you do the quiz untimed or if you paused it?
