Excellent quiz, but having the yellow box slows down the flow of answers...at least to me anyway

Great job! A few minor things:

For North America, under A you are missing a comma between the first two answers, and Washington D.C. shouldn't have a comma.

Is there any reason for the yellow box? I don't think it's really necessary as it seems like a hinderance since you can't just type cities as you think of them, even if you know them.

I agree. This would be a much more enjoyable quiz without the yellow box, as the very specific answers make it unnecessary.

The source I used doesn't list Dusseldorf as having a million plus population. Although that seems to be a mistake, I'll look into it.

Just taken this quiz again, over 4 years after I commented last time in 2020. I take back what I said about the yellow box. But I do think a little extra time would be an advantage.

Nommed anyway!

Thanks! I actually might remove the yellow box, sometimes having the quiz be more enjoyable than challenging is better in my opinion.

With this change, I don't think time would be an issue anymore.

The examples for Asian "N" cities should show a current name instead of Nur-Sultan. China is a country that has some "N" cities you can choose from.
