it’s actually faster to systematically list consonant-vowel and vowel-consonant pairs and then just type common double consonant starts of words like “sw”, “th”, etc until time runs out, than to think about which country/capital/state starts with what letters.

I think there should be a Jetpunk standard for Ivory Coast / Côte d'Ivoire. In some quizzes both are accepted, in some "Ivory Coast" shows up but not "Côte d'Ivoire". However, in this one "IV" doesn't work at all.

The standard is Ivory Coast but this quiz might have been made when the standard was the opposite. Most quizzes should accept either.
