10 Random Countries by Area - Blind Ranking

Put these countries in order by size (largest to smallest) without knowing which one comes next. But the quiz will end if you make three mistakes or a country cannot be placed.
The answers change every time
You may safely put the pin down outside the answer boxes
You cannot skip questions as that would destroy the point of the game
Huge thanks to Dimby for helping with the code and playtesting!

Not a fan of this format. Played it once in the hope of getting a few points.

I guessed Russia as number 10 and lost. There’s something not right here…

Spot 10 is for the smallest one. I'd add an indication in the SVG but due to a security update a few weeks ago I cannot update this quiz any more

Can you add a caveat that it is biggest to smallest. It confused me on the first few takes!

It's back in the explanation now, it got removed when it was featured

It should be stated that it goes from biggest to smallest

This a ridiculous quiz and the fact it is featured is beyond me...I can put all of them in order as long as they are shown at the same time. This is a lottery, not a quiz. Good riddance

I don't get all the comments complaining about this quiz. Yes, it's somewhat luck-based, but it also tests your knowledge about the relative size of countries and how likely they are to be larger or smaller than others. It only takes a few tries to get five points, anyways.

It's extremely luck based, same as the number version. Everyone on Jetpunk knows the exact order of the numbers between 1-100 but that doesn't matter if you get really unlucky with the order your random ten are given to you. For example, on one of my tries I started with Saudi Arabia, one of the biggest countries in the world. I placed it high, and then got Brazil, Russia and Libya.

You should clarify that Denmark is excluding Greenland.

I like the idea of putting countries in order, the quiz ending immediately after placing one wrong is a bit boring though, too much luck involved. I could imagine different quiz types though based on the ranking layout.

You can make 2 mistakes, only the third one will end the quiz

I cannot play, because no countries appear. Is it just my browser being buggy as usual?

Some adblockers can cause the countries to not appear somehow, maybe thats the issue

With all due respect, as a longtime player who is close to the top in total points and thus in many languages, this quiz is too poorly explained to merit inclusion either for points or as a featured quiz.

Yeah, I took this quiz over 300 times and I couldn’t get any higher than a 9/10. I’m not opposed to the idea of blind rankings, but it often felt like I was punished with the next answer regardless of how conservative or liberal my ranking was.

I’m not opposed to this idea, but the high difficulty combined with the huge influence of luck on your score makes me dislike this quiz when I probably wouldn’t otherwise.

From a statistical point of view this one should be more or less as difficult as the numbers one. It becomes more tricky since it's harder to gauge how many countries actually are allowed in the gaps you leave. I guess thats also reflected by the points, with 7/10 enough for 5/5 instead of 9/10 for the numbers one.

This should never, ever have been featured.

It seems that very few novel, high-quality quizzes get featured nowadays. That needs to change, or this site will go into a death spiral.

I know that there is a very vocal group that doesn't like this type of quiz, as well as a group that does enjoy them (as evident by the fact that the 18 quizzes of this type across all languages have now been taken over a million times). And everyone can have their own opinion, thats fine. There is a luck factor involved and I understand that can be frustrating.

What i find funny is that you don't consider this quiz novel or high quality. This entire format didn't exist before I made the first one 3 months ago, and there's only 8 English ones of them forever since I can make no more due to a security update. And while the front end may look deceivingly simple, it took me a week to get the backend working, to make it so that each answer box knows whether an answer is allowed or not based on the current state of the other answer boxes, to know when the quiz should end, and to block the scrolling through answers. While it looks simple, what's going on behind the scenes is far from that.
