You wrote Dsb twice by mistake. I spent all the time trying to find Dfb, which is by far my favourite type of climate;)

Moreover, The Cfb climate, which is the most common is Western Europe and New Zealand, is wrongly labeled as Dfa

Some of the climates were mislabelled. For example, Cfb was labelled as Dfa.

I think 10 seconds per answer is plenty of time, especially considering very few people know all the answers anyway.

Did I spend an hour and a half learning the Koppen climate zones knowing full well I have two finals tomorrow? Yes, yes I did. Got a 100% though! Great quiz!!

Although it's amazing that someone has made a map on such topic (really appreciate that), some zones aren't correct, most notably the Cfb zone. Could you please check that one?

Western and central Europe is mislabelled as Dfa when it is Cfb. Also, I personally agree more with the 0°C isotherm, and I can see that this map uses the -3°C isotherm.

Good quiz but with some mistakes ! You mixed up Cfb with Dfa

It's not necessarily mixed up, but rather most of the hot summer humid continental zones were merged with the oceanic zones.

This is wrong, I know where I live (the Netherlands) is a C-climate. Fun idea, bad execution.

Sad that Comoros, Kerguelen, and Drangarnir do not appear on the map. Svalbard makes a rare full appearance though
