Add a ton of type ins. Ask Stewart if you really wanna learn.

Basically, use this: https://www.jetpunk.com/users/stewart/blog/how-to-use-type-ins-effectively

Then use that to add all of the choices that should work as type-ins. Narrow them down until there is only one.

Nice quiz! It was a lot easier for me than others because it doesn’t have many options (37).

Your source may not have said this but cities like Chengdu, China definitely have a population over 10 million. I like the idea, nice quiz!
