If you're after 100% here, you'll have a fighting chance in the Two Minute version.

average is 21 now. (which will give you 2 points, you need 35 for 5 points. I got 4 points (29) and I'll leave it at that, not gonna strain/pain myself trying to get 35, let alone all off them)

You may have noticed we ran for a day with a photo of Big Ben of London, then a day with the Little Mermaid from Copenhagen, to see if photos have any influence on the scores. On this quiz there wasn't - London held steady on 92%, and Copenhagen crept up from 46% to 48%.

I guess "everyone" is going to guess London anyway, maybe you could try the test again with a picture of Moscow and one of Athens and see if the improve

It helped me for sure. I had a few seconds to go and glanced at the picture and got Copenhagen in the last 5 seconds.

Half the time I don't even notice the photo (or the caveats.) Unfortunately the latter can often be problematic, the former not so much.

Calling Ankara the capital of a European country is a bit of a stretch since that city is clearly in Asia, and such a small part of Turkey is in Europe. See answers above for discussion about Nicosia/Cyprus.

That would be more difficult for those who tend to type it correctly because then they'd have to waste time on deleting the extra n from the answer box.

Having such a short time on a capitals quiz takes away the knowledge part and basically just makes it a typing quiz.

Only 38, much harder to think of capitals in a neat order for sure, I try to have the order as I would guess countries but I still have to put some thought behind the country first and then the capital. +I type too slow

That's a bit rough, Andorra la Vella is cute! I spent a very enjoyable lunchtime there, on a day I drove from one end of the country to the other. ALV sits snugly into a steep-sided valley, and it's amazing how it's adapted to very awkward terrain to build in.

Finally got 37, which put me in the 5 point range. And surprisingly, I used Podgorica and Ljubljana before thinking of Athens and Berlin! Weird where your mind goes during these timed quizzes.
