Got all of them, but first was trying to only think of those that started with the letter "J." Once I understood the concept, I got the rest easily.

I only realised it wasn't only countries starting with a J after the time ended. I got really frustrated because I thought of every country in Africa, Asia and Oceania and still couldn't find the last four countries:))))

I fear you (and I) will be waiting a long long long time.

You may mean "generally no-one cares", but surely not "literally" because there are some people who do care. You would do well to kindly not speak on behalf of others...

Jan 27, 2019
Have you ever thought that maybe they dont care that people dont care?

they might just be in the moment and want to share what they are feeling regardless is anyone reads it or not (like saying yes when finally beating a game eventhough noone is in the room) (granted some might definitely be showing of and wanting the attention, but for others it might be a true expression of their surprise or happyness about it)

Since when is Jordan in Asia? - I always thought it was in the Middle East! - Is this the same convoluted thinking that placed Egypt in the Middle East, when in fact, it is in Africa?

Middle East isn't a continent. All countries have to be in one of the 7 continents. So you can say that Cyprus is part of Europe, but more specifically you can identify it as being in the Mediterranean

Reading the comments would have allready given you the answer to that. Plus it is also kind of obvious from the results. (Looks like about a quarter falling for it)

I fell for it too. But atleast as annoying was all sorts of things that werent countries came to mind (and country starting with j in my language). Jemen, Jerusalem jutland, jericho, java, jakarta. Maybe even Jehovah... not sure but it came up now rememering the ones that came to mind doing the quiz..

now more things come, make it stop.. juniper, jupiter, juno..

What does that have to do with anything, you have obviously read mine otherwise you couldnt have commented on it... (so you are a cheater?)

He asked if he was the only one, and clearly not because other are saying the same thing... your comment is so unrelated to mine that it is hard to see how you can go from that to a comment about cheating.

It has nothing to do with cheating and all to do with people asking a question, that have been asked and answered 30 times before their comment, but they dont bother to read before asking (or in some cases complaining, while the explanation is already there)
