Find The Mystery Country Using Border Hints - Randomized!
To start, name any country. Use the colour clues in the map legend to find the mystery country. When you guess the mystery country, the quiz is over - you win!
Just to clarify, I've used the borders as per the Clear the borders off the world map quiz. Regarding dubious borders and those on islands off the mainland, this means:
That's an excellent idea, as always with this kind of quizzes! I'm so sad to not be able to nominate it, so I hope that someone will at least spotlight it.
Due to the way this is set up its not possible to have all countries as the mystery country at the same time. It might be that Peru is not a possible mystery country in this set :)
Every time I type my first answer, and it's the mystery country, it's always Russia. Russia is the first country that comes to my mind because it borders a lot of countries like China.
It can be featured, it just can't be nominated. So it needs to attract QMs attention in a different way, and then he needs to like it enough to actually feature it. It's a harder path for sure, but it can happen
A bit more than a handful but you're correct, there are 65 possible mystery countries. Due to the way it's set up each mystery country requires 152 answers, so I can't add more than 65 within the 10,000 answer limit
- Spain - Morocco is included
- Spain - UK is excluded
- France - Netherlands is excluded
- Denmark - Canada is excluded
- India - Sri Lanka is excluded
Not that it makes much of a difference, but you can't guess Nigeria, the Domenican Republic or Guinea-Bissau with the first guess.
I do swap them out every once in a while
Totally addicted.
Also it seems the quiz memorizes the last unanswered country. So if narrowed down enough, it's pretty to guess it at the next round.
Thanks!
EDIT: had it in two guesses, with Russia then Belarus, so down to 0:06
Great Quiz! This must have been hard to make!
My record: 2 seconds!!!
YAY!!!
