Fantastic once again zwerth! Could you do a randomised version of the "Map Quiz" format as well? :D

I absolutely not understand how this works. Vietnam worked, but China above it did not. Why?

Well, you are only supposed to guess the countries highlighted in blue, so China may not have been highlighted, since the answers change every time you take the quiz.

Papua New Guinea is topologically equivalent with East Timor (which can also nicely be seen on this map). You could consider adding East Timor to the answers there.

I believe that East Timor is the small triangle on the left side of Indonesia, opposite Papua New Guinea

I don't care if I am the only one in the world, but I hate trying these quizzes. Not that I don't think the work done to create them is impressive nor that I believe they shouldn't be featured for the pleasure of those who enjoy them. They just fall beside my personal interests. Just like I dislike golf while I find golf courses beautiful and understand those who enjoy the sport.

This is honestly one of the most respectful rejections of my quiz and I totally understand. It's kind of like some art pieces: I know that the artists worked very hard on them but I just might not find them very interesting or appealing. So thank you for this comment because I'm sure others feel the same way too :)

The black lines are oceans, all of the white boxes are countries, ONLY preserving BORDERS. The blue countries are the ones you have to guess.

Unfortunately, I think this is the way that all randomized quizzes work. It would be cool to see the stats on how many people got each country correct too, but it's not a feature with randomized quizzes to my knowledge :(

This is one of the best possible ideas for the geography afficionados here. I can name every country so most of these quizes are getting boring, but I still miss them! This was a great variation that allows me to think again.
