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.
The European Commission needs to update their numbers or something… I mean, only one of the Nordic urban areas are listed, neither is Edmonton or Ottawa…
surely Helsinki should be listed on there… as well as many Russian cities (Ufa, Samara, Omsk etc.)
populations were slightly under 1M for those urban centres per the source.
well you should use another source then as they are all over 1M (Helsinki city proper is under but urban area is over)
this is the source that had the temperature data however so I’m stuck using it for these urban centre quizzes. urban areas are defined different ways from source to source too
