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 largest 50K+ cities in each square IN ORDER. 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).
The squares will start with '0/5' (or maybe fewer cities if less exist in that square). Click on a square and enter the largest city in that square not yet answered (so, the largest city if you have yet to answer a city in that square). You will then have '1/5' and need to click on that square to name the 2nd largest city, and so on until you complete all the cities up to 5 (or less if less exist). If you name an incorrect city in a square it becomes 'locked' and turns red and you can no longer accumulate cities in that square.
You receive 1 point for the largest city in a square, 2 for the 2nd largest, and so on.
At the end of the quiz the largest remaining city you haven't named will be shown in each square.
For some reason I don’t feel like expert mode has enough time, and I have Premium. Unless this is due to me being on mobile
I’ll bump it up.

What is the coty that abuts Perth, Australia?
In intermediate difficulty, what is the city in the square over east Sri Lanka? I’ve tried all the largest cities there.
Also Suva, Fiji doesn’t seem to be working. I’d assume thats the largest city in that square.
Nasinu is actually the biggest city in Fiji city proper.
it’s kalmunai
On the beginner level, it is saying Karachi has a larger population than Mumbai? Karachi has 14 million to Mumbai’s 21.
my city proper populations are from citypopulation.de…you may be referring to metro area
even in city proper, i believe mumbai has more
Karachi has a couple million more city proper.
On the expert level there is a square in Alberta and I am sure the answer is Fort Mcmurray yet no matter how much I try different ways to spell it I can’t seem to get it correct. Is there another spelling I am not aware of? If so I would love to know it! Thank you!
Fort McMurray is a urban service area and not included…it’s Wood Buffalo
Where can we get the answers ?

Update in Johannesburg vs Lusaka:
I searched up both cities in “citypopulation.de” and I got 7,860,781 for Johannesburg and 1,747,152 for Lusaka. Could there be something wrong with the “Beginner” grid?
Here are the links I used:
https://citypopulation.de/en/southafrica/cities/
https://citypopulation.de/en/zambia/cities/
that’s a urban center Johannesburg population. it includes a number of cities outside the city limits.
Is this what you’re using then? https://citypopulation.de/en/southafrica/cityofjohannesburg/
“Main Places” within each municipality? (Johannesburg 957,441)
yes
Also, “Diego-Suarez” was changed to “Antsiranana” in 1975. Had to really cross-reference that one!
both are accepted.
Also, why in “Beginner” is Lusaka considered the largest in the grid when Johannesburg is the more populated one?
not according to city proper at citypopulation.de
“Taipei” really should count for “New Taipei City”.
they are different cities, so I have them separated.
Wow! You are really fast!
