I think the accepted distance might be too large. I don't know if there's a way to make it smaller for smaller countries, but I didn't know where Dushanbe were so I clicked in the middle of Tajikistan and it accepted even though it is right at the edge. I do think you could easily half the distance, and while some of the larger countries like Mongolia, India or Saudi Arabia will be harder, that might actually be a net benefit for the quiz.
I understand your point. For smaller countries, it's easier to get the point provided that you know the country from the capital, which is not the case for all users.
I fear that reducing the distance for small countries will cause the statistics to collapse.
Only missed Astana, closed the Almaty position 🙈. Tbf I still get confused whether their capital is Almaty or Astana so I'll give myself a pass there hah
Got them all after around 4 tries. Nearly missed on a couple, namely Turkmenistan. For the smaller countries the rule of thumb is "when in doubt, go for the center", but with the larger countries it becomes a lot harder. I knew China and India no problem, but got Astana, Tehran, Kabul, Tashkent, and Ashgabat wrong on my first 2 tries.
congrats!

So just touch Bahrain or Singapore anywhere near them
