Country Shapes Target Practice

Can you name these country shapes in 90 seconds? The harder each country is, the more points you will get for naming it correctly. Once you name a country, it will disappear and a new one will appear.

One word for this: genius. I don't know how you came up with the idea, nor pulled it off, but either way nominated.

This is an amazing idea! I've been finding so many cool quizzes on these groups.

A few problems however,

1a. If you hover over the place the country was after you guessed it, it will still read the name of the country even though it's invisible. this isn't really a problem but eh.

1b. When you don't guess san Marino and Eswatini and hover over them at the end, they read Slovakia and Costa Rica because of the above glitch.

2. its not featured!

0. Maybe make a randomized version? Maybe have 9 set countries for the first the 3 of each (Brazil, Australia, japan, USA, just reconizeable stuff) than another set of less reconizeable but easy countries (Mexico, Germany, Italy, Greece) and harder and harder countries until you get to small countries or islands (Kosovo, Malta cape/cabo verde, belize) just a suggestion!

It's not a glitch. When you guess a country, another shape covering the next disappears. The country and cover shape have the same class so it appears as the same answer. Sorry, there doesn't seem like there is a fix to this.

That doesn't make it not a glitch.

Is there some workaround to figuring out which countries you missed?

A glitch is an unintended malfunction, that is just how it functions. Not a glitch.

Ty, I liked this a lot.

I would give it more time. I got 90-130/300, and consider myself fair at country outlines (I think I can guess maybe 50-75% of non-islands & non-micro countries)

The outlines seemed odd to me; especially Nicaragua & Czechia. Maybe it's just me. They seemed less-detailed / harder than I'm used to.

And I'd change the scoring system to 1pt/country.

Idk, country outlines are hard, because they're inconsistent in detail, and the size makes such a big difference.

The scoring system is designed so that guessing harder countries gives more points.

Is Eswatini really that skinny? It appears thicker in the maps I'm looking at. And after the quiz it says Slovakia when hovering over it.

Lovely idea, and the random version suggested in the comments would be amazing. But frustrating on a phone, when you have to spend so much time scrolling around to find the newly appeared countries as only shows (I guess) part of the play area at a time.

Eswatini doesn't quite look right to me. It seems like it might be cut off on the right. It also doesn't work to scroll. (on a Mac)

With 37 seconds left, all of the remaining country shapes vanished. No idea why.

Great concept, but easy for veteran nerds like me. I'd love to see and endless version of this one, limited by time, not by list.

How did you make each answer worth a different amount of points?

My guess would be to change the classes or go to advanced settings when making the quiz. I don’t actually know, but those are the standard things for things like that.
