Yep messed me up too, so since I am not a touch typist and it took me time to realise, I posted a very poor score - which if many people are doing the same would skew the stats. I'm going to argue that you didn't specify that the first two letters of the written name was what was required, actually you didn't specify that we should enter the first two letters of the common name rather than the full name. Entirely reasonable for quizzers to enter the first two letters of the name as people speak it. And for the UAE, people usually say UAE.

Excellent quiz! - Please leave Cyprus where it is as that's where it belongs. Also, the common use of abbreviations should not alter the FACT that the UAE begins with Un(ited) Arab Emirates.

I am so weary of lazy people who just can't be bothered to learn! Is it any wonder that our schools are graduating a generation of

the "truly lost".

Level 75

By virtue of its geographical location; its closest neighbors are Asian Turkey, Syria and Lebanon, and of course Northern Cyprus is very Turkish-aligned. Continental boundaries are pretty arbitrary, they aren't subject to agreements of countries in the same way that national borders are, so there's no "right" answer to that one. You could just as easily include Cyprus in Europe by virtue of its membership of the euro, European Union, and general historic ties.

yes, while it is generally considered to be politically part of Europe, only the part that contains most of its population is sometimes considered to be geographically part of Europe. The part that doesn't is usually considered to be geographically part of Asia.

I like the quiz, but am red/green colorblind. Telling the colors apart isn't impossible, but it takes a lot of focus because their brightness values are so close to each other. I think that if you could make one of the colors 10-20% darker it would really help make it more playable. Thanks!

If you go into My Account, you can set "Color-blind?" to "Yes". That will sort out every quiz for which colorblindness would otherwise be an issue.
