You need to make the map bigger, or the city dots smaller.

Rotterdam came up in the answer list but on the map it is completely covered by green dots.

One can click anywhere on the map to enlarge that particular region of the world.

So how do I know to enlarge that part of the world? Telepathy?

Do I enlarge every part of the map to find a hidden city while the time ticks on?

Or is it up to the quizmaster to present questions in such a way that they're answerable, by making the map a bit bigger, or the dots a bit smaller?

If you are missing answers, you click on the map for a close-up, e.g. Europe, then you can see that Oh I missed Rotterdam. I would call it logic or common sense or trial and error rather than telepathy.

Upper Silesia is not one city. There's multiple, probably over 10 cities around that area that shouldn't be considered as one big city.

I don't think they are - that's why it's in grey and you can't select it. It's mentioned in the source they're using and is therefore it's included (the same as the Ruhr and Cologne-Dusseldorf really being considered multiple cities).

There are some serious inconsistencies between the data used on your various quizzes. I presume some are city proper and others urban area? For example, there are several Indian cities on here with larger populations than Hyderabad, yet these other cities don’t even appear on the 200 largest cities quiz!
