Level 83
May 19, 2020
Yeah, that's about where I ground to a halt. I think I got about 250 in the first fifteen minutes, then drastically slowed for the remainder of the time. Learning Thai and Vietnamese provinces would certainly grant a few more. Judging by percentages answered correctly, my specialist area seems to be Malaysian States, but there aren't so many of those as to get a big boost. Indonesia's useful, since so many are in the format [Direction] [Island Name], but there again aren't a huge number.

The names used on the quiz are the Official names of the Administrative Divisions and the extra type-ins are for the Code Names.

There are two names for each atoll - a historical one and one that is simplified and is read more or less by going through the alphabet (consonants only) north to south. So, if you wrote "haa," for example (the first letter in the alphabet), you got both North and South Thiladunmathee Atolls - the two most northerly atolls. (Dhivehi is also spelled phonetically, so spellings are variable.)

If you actually memorized these all, presuming the average length to be around even 8 or 9 characters, you only need 25-30wpm to complete this, so it's possible if you have a very, very good memory.

Tip for Taiwan:

Please accept the ACTUAL spelling, not just that Romanized crap. It makes it very confusing.

Jiaozira
+6
Level 70
May 11, 2020
The Romanised versions are still the official English names though. I don't believe "Taibei" is a type in for Taipei anywhere on Jetpunk at all. Same for Gaoxiong, Taizhong, etc.
KanzazKyote
+2
Level 83
May 12, 2020
Yes, but "Taipei" is similar to Taibei. "Kaohsiung" has no similarity to Gaoxiong and is supremely confusing for a native Chinese. We don't use "Peking" anymore, so why that?

Also, is there a reason this quiz doesn't save? It happens occasionally with other quizzes, but a second run through saves it. This happened with the Europe one too, when I finish it doesn't save, which is really annoying for an hour long quiz.

Quadon
+1
Level 46
Apr 18, 2023
My brother, wdym. Even Taiwan itself uses those spellings. You won't find a single sign saying Gaoxiong, just because Pinyin isn't the norm here but Zhuyin is. Accepting Pinyin for Taiwanese units would not make any sense because it's neither the "Actual spelling" (Which would just be 高雄), nor the internationalized spelling Taiwan uses itself.

That's like wanting to accept Dongjing for Tokyo just because it's what you're used to lol

AllenY

Level 69
Jun 3, 2020
We don't use Peking because the PRC doesn't use it. We use Taipei because the ROC uses it. To be honest, I think those typeins should be accepted, but that's the basic reasoning.

Epic quiz, really pushed me. Inevitably on a quiz of this scale there are a few you kick yourself for missing (Istanbul), a few you thought you'd typed in, but hadn't (Kandahar), and a lot you get while typing in something else (surely the incredibly high percentage for Myanmar's Shan State is a result of people trying to type Shanghai?). I think if I did individual country quizzes and added the scores together I'd do better (there's a chance I'd think of Deir-ez-Zor and Raqqa if doing a Syria quiz, but they didn't cross my overburdened brain doing this monster). All in all though, I applaud the work that went into this.

Referring to the West Bank as 'Judea and Samaria' is... questionable. That's a term almost exclusively used in internal Israeli discourse, usually by supporters of complete annexation of the territory. The international community, rightfully, refers to is as the 'West Bank', a more religiously- and politically-neutral term.

I ended up with 216 including most of the ones in Saudi Arabia and all in Israel. Good for 4 points. Good enough for me. Most obscure pick-ups at 3% each currently were Cagayan in the Philippines and Adjara in Georgia, plus a couple I must have got by accident... a little surprised that both of those weren't higher especially Adjara as it's a semi-autonomous region.

An amazing piece of research. Only a couple of minor niggles - it's a bit harsh not to accept 'Nakhichevan' for the Azerbaijan exclave as that was the usual transliteration not that long ago. Also, there are the Governorates of Palestine https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Governorates_of_Palestine - it's a bit of a shame not to acknowledge the existence of the place.
