Is Czechia the accepted name for an official country?

Czech Republic is still an accepted answer. I choose Czechia personally, plus it's shorter and just as official as Czech Republic nowadays.

Yes, but Bosnia is much shorter in length and thus easier to read and isn’t given away by width of boxes

It's a good thing there are no hard feelings amongst the Balkans! But, seriously, Bosnia is much easier to type out.

Update: It is completed! It can't use the yellow-box feature due to the way the scrambling algorithm works on JetPunk, but it works well enough I think!

I play a game of how many cities I've visited. In 5 tries I got 12-13-12-13-10. Mostly keptup by Russian cities and down by British :)

Excellent idea! Funnily enough I would be the opposite, driven up by UK and down by Russia. But then I’m from the UK so can’t expect much else!

Level 68
Feb 12, 2019
Every European nation is represented, it's just because some countries have more population centres that skew the chances of smaller countries appearing.

I got no UK cities first time and then 4 next up. Germany 6-1. It is pretty random, but that's better than eliminating Russia as a possible answer when you've guessed the first one, I suppose.

Welcome to the world of randomness. It would be a lot less random to get 1 from each country than to get clusters of answers. But anyway, there are 202 possible answers, and there are more answers in bigger countries because these have the more recognisable city names. They are all either in top 200 by population, or are capitals of their country.

Why are you looking for something to be balanced when you know it's random? That's literally the entire point of randomness; there's no formula.
