Good quiz idea. Although you could reduce the time, since you give 2 types of clue (distance and starting-letter)

Level 68

Oct 7, 2015

100%. Definitely need less time. Ended with almost 6 minutes and I spent wayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy too much time thinking about a couple of them.

Level 70

Dec 29, 2015

Now 7 minutes, a real challenge I think.

Level 57

Mar 5, 2021

I got 100% with 5 seconds left, but definitely a fun challenge!

Level 22

Jan 25, 2016

I'm confused. Took me 3 minutes to figure this out, but I really like the idea!

Add some more acceptable type-ins, such as ljulbjana, chisinua, and vilnus. Not that I misspelled those...

Level 70

Feb 10, 2016

Added a couple of your examples, though I don't like to get too sloppy with the spelling.

Level 43

Luxemburg instead of Luxembourg?

Ankara, Nicosia????

Ankara and Cyprus are in Asia.

Level 70

Jul 27, 2016

Well Wishful it's a moot point. Turkey is often called 'Trans-Continental' meaning it has some of it's land in both Asia & Europe. For this little quiz I decided to use Turkey as European. In my "Mal's Asian Closest Capital Hopscotch" I switched and put Turkey into Asia..... As for Cyprus, again it is in the 'too difficult' pot, the people of Cyprus generally see themselves as European and have greater links to Greece then elsewhere... for this quiz I decided to put Cyprus in the European basket........ after all 'Does it really matter?"

Level 47

Jan 8, 2017

Well the one thing I would change is this: It says one trans-continental country, but both Russia and Turkey are included.

Level 61

Mar 5, 2017

It also says one island, but Malta and Cyprus are both included. I would argue not to include Ankara because Turkey is transcontinental, but Ankara is not - it's an Asian city and shouldn't be on a quiz about European cities. But other than that, this was a great quiz!

Level 70

Mar 5, 2017

Changed the wording slightly to clarify what nations included.

Level 78

Dec 19, 2021

Did someone on jetpunk really ask "does it really matter?" when referring to Cyprus' continent?

Level 68

Oct 9, 2016

Even though I got 'em all, I got to admit I struggled more than I should have.

Level 62

Mar 4, 2017

100% with 1:30 remaining. Creative idea.

Level 70

Mar 4, 2017

Better than I could have done before I made the quiz.

Level 43

Mar 11, 2017

Tallinn with 2xN?

Level 70

Mar 12, 2017

Yes, I had my accepted type-ins mixed, thanks

Level 66

Oct 3, 2017

2 island nations included? I count four, London, Dublin, Valetta, Nicosia

Level 70

Oct 3, 2017

Thanks, Changed wording to clarify that situation.

Can you accept Valetta for Valletta?

Level 70

Apr 27, 2018

I can see how that could be tricky so Yes, I'll accept that.

Great quiz. Really good new idea to have them in this order and interesting how close some of them are or not.

Forgot Kosovo's capital. 45/46

Hi 'oranje', I think 45/46 is very good going:

Nice. Should be featured.

By the way, you have to update '152 - M' to '152 - N'

Level 70

Thanks 'AlexanderQ'........ I've updated M to N.

Will do.

Level 78

Dec 19, 2021

Normal local spellings such as Wien, Lisboa and Praha are not being accepted.

Level 70

Dec 20, 2021

I'm assuming that anyone doing an English Language Quiz would know the English word for their own capital city.

Level 90

Dec 22, 2021

Good call to refrain from acquiescing to every ridiculous spelling request.

Hopefully the quizmaster can take a hint from your leadership on this matter.
