Thanks for noticing that, I'm italian and i might have spelled it in italian by mistake. Considering that you need to write just "Sao Tome" to get it, I've never noticed it. Thank you!
In portuguese, which is actually São Tomé e Príncipe's language it is written with an "E" separating the islands São Tomé and Príncipe, given the name São Tomé "E" Princípe, which basically means São Tomé "and" Príncipe. So, the creator of the map is correct. I'm portuguese so, fact checked.
Some time ago this quiz was 2 minutes instead of 2.30, I added more time cause there were many people asking for it, you might be one of the only ones who has gotten it in less than 2 mins. Good job! And thanks a lot!
Enjoyably difficult - in five goes I got 40 once, 38 twice and 39 twice. Partly a question of luck as to how many of the really small ones that require zooming in (hello Lebanon and Gambia) come up...
I would suggest leaving out Gambia. That's the only one where it's really close to impossible to tell if it's there or not already, especially if Senegal is there. Otherwise great quiz.
I usually assume that the small countries are missing, so i generally type them anyways, without even checking. I find this very helpful, it saves a lot of time and it's a guaranteed win every time. Of course you have to be VERY fasti. Good luck!
Thank you for making this, it's kept me challenged. It's hard, but possible if you concentrate, which was welcoming after finding the 20 missing countries one a bit too easy. Would love for you to make more quizzes like these! What about one where you have countries missing but you have to name the capital instead of the country name?
Love this quiz and love the extra challenge compared to the 20 missing countries quiz. I would really suggest leaving out Gambia though - it isn't simply hard to see like Montenegro, Lebanon, etc - it genuinely is not visible.
Understand this. I suffered. I played The Boy's "I Can Do Anything / Finale" on repeat as I uttered senseless curses and pleas to my computer screen, begging for something different other than losing to a single country. And for what? Gambia. Missing. I can't see it. Cyprus. Gone. Malta. Really? You want to torture me with things my poor, weathered eyes can't perceive? I see these comments and I see these masochists praising you for what will become the worst moments of my life. They enjoy the suffer and some of them even SUCCEED. This is not for me. I'm suffering in a sea of my invisible tears as I cry out to a god that will not help me see Qatar in time. I have cradled my throbbing, suffering heart and I have told it, "failure is inevitable. The suffering that comes with your incompetence will train you into a better person." And yet I have not succeeded. I want to drag you to a bridge and make you watch me plummet. This pains my heart and soul and mind and essence. I am broken.
I'm sorry, I'm one of the slow ones and I usually make it in less than 2 mins, so no, I'm not gonna add time I'm afraid. Thanks for the suggestion though!
Second time and just the eight micro-nations this time. Impossible to see. Great idea for a quiz but you need to limit the number of micro-nations as the time is very very tight as already pointed out numerous times. Zooming in and out takes up too much time.
You don't have to zoom in every time, you should just assume they're missing and type them in anyways, or at least that's what I do and I get it right every single time
Dude, I've read the comments and I know you're on your "it's my quiz and I make the rules" train, but IMHO, you've made something completely irrelevant.
The timer really needs to be longer, it's only doable with a lucky draw at the moment. If you get any of the countries that need zooming in or some of the islands it's basically not doable.
Ah, it's a fast typing quiz, and the maker even admits that. Guess I won't bother complaining about the low visibility of small missing countries and the low time.
This is much better than the 20 missing countries one. Real challenge to spot the little ones and have come undone with Gambia, Djibouti and Lebanon already.
Love playing the quiz, but I just can't seem to pass the 50 second barrier. I finish in 50 seconds exactly again and again and again I've never had this level of consistency on any quiz before
Like a lot of the comments I've seen, I too think that there is not enough time for the quiz. It's simply not enough time for me to look through the map and find the missing countries, especially when there are some small countries missing.
I would suggest adding more time, since it sounds like people are trying to find all the countries before clicking start to have a chance of actually getting them all. However, if you like it being a fast quiz where the time limit is the biggest challenge, could you at least but something in the title that suggests it's a speed test?
You're saying it like if I don't explicitly advertise it's a fast typing quiz I'm like scamming you or smth. It's just an harmless fast quiz, it's not like I'm getting money off of it
I managed to get 5/5 by checking all the missing countries before clicking 'Start', writing them in Notepad, and copy-pasting them after starting the game.
That's not how it should work: I should be able to guess all the countries with my knowledge, finding the missing small ones by zooming (and taking my time to do it). The suggestion to type small countries until you get the correct one simply proves that it is designed to have a low number of users getting 100% rather than any other reason.
Great quiz! My record is 1:51 for all of them. Maybe at a bit more of time for the ones who need it. Further it is a super quiz and i love you added some more smaller country's like lebanon and gambia. A good extra country would be brunei but thats up to you!
The quiz is fun ( and I don't think it needs a minute more like people suggested, but 30 sec or something could be helpful) but the attitude of the quizmaker is awful.
(you absolutely have the right to keep the quiz the way you like it, but you do not need to be rude to each and every one that gives a suggestion, especially since you asked for suggestions. Just don't respond to them then.)
A classic dream XD
P.S. Uganda Rwanda Burundi Tanzania and Kenya all sank plus Qatar XD
Wow. What an incredibly intelligent quiz... not.
Dude, I've read the comments and I know you're on your "it's my quiz and I make the rules" train, but IMHO, you've made something completely irrelevant.
Literally 90% of the comments: "add 1 minute to the time limit"
Quizmaster: "No, and if you cant do it your elderly and or retarded"
a quick synopsis of this quizzes comments.
Also if you ask for advice and the advice you get is stupid are you gonna follow it anyways?

That's why I rated it one star.
