Oh man I only got 79 lol. I always knew geography was not my strong suit
Although I think given a bit more time I could do more. I was still thinking of countries as the clock ran out. And I totally forgot one country I've even visited! lol (Monaco)
-
oi that was hard!! I am ashamed of myself. I missed a lot of Africa.
I got 99. But it's nice to see that I got some countries that a large percentage of people miss!
-
@sunny: I did the US states one! haha. Got most of them - I totally blanked on Delaware!
-
@Mrs. Pen: lol ok now I feel a little better. Did the US one and got all the states with 1:36 to spare.
-
@Mrs. Pen: We once played the name the states game while camping (we're Canadian) and I said Delaware, which my friend was convinced didn't exist!!
-
@Mae: I got 86, but I was feeding LO supper at the same time
-
@Mrs. Pen: Ack! I missed Minnesota (YOURS!!! :-)) and Vermont!!!
-
I can name every country in the world, but that's only because I'm a dork and I memorized it. And then I challenged my 8th graders to a geography duel (18 of them v me) and won.
-
@Anagram: sweeeet. I am a fellow geography nerd, and I salute you. Pretty sure I could fill in an entire world map
-
168 and I ran out of time. I'm a slow thinker...
-
@Arden: I knew you would get a crazy high score
Can you pick them all out on a map? I can't even get close.
-
@Anagram: you're amazing!
@tinyperson: ahahah. that's just sad.
@sunny: noooo!! how could you do that to me!!
-
@sunny: I can do all of Europe and the Middle East. I'm a little shaky on South America and Asia, and very shaky on Africa.
-
@Arden: impressive! I got 140. Some of the tiny African coastal countries were driving me nutty.
-
I got 81. There was a time that I knew every single country and it's capital. Not anymore obviously!
-
i sucked at this game. 61
-
129... I used to be so much better at this!
ETA I used to be so much better because I was a really cool kid that would quiz myself on countries and states for fun -
I've created a monster...DH just got 181 and has now found more quizzes on this site. AAAAAAAAHHHhhh!
-
@LovelyPlum: after I took this, I also wasted an hour on that site.
-
@Mrs. Pen: disaster. I should have known this was coming. I'm about to pull him away so we can go get some food, but I know full well that I'll lose him again when we're home
-
....and now he's bitching that the shape of the Ukraine on their maps is no longer correct...my husband is ridiculous
-
@Mrs. Yoyo: right? Sao Verde, Comoros, and The Gambia are always so hard for me to remember!
I work with a guy from Liberia so I'm always inserting my "helpful" knowledge of geography into conversations to feel self important and smug. Like...he'll say, "when I was growing up, my family would go to a nearby country to vacation" and I'll jump in and be like "Oh, are you talking about Sierra Leone? Or Ivory Coast? Or Guinea?" because I'm insufferable like that.
-
@Mrs. Pen: I told ya it was a time waster
@Anagram: LOL! I don't even know if those are in east or west Africa!
-
I feel like an ignoramus. I barely broke 100.
-
I only got 88. My brain just stopped working. When the answers came up, I realize I guessed some of the most obscure ones and left some of the super obvious ones. Doh!
-
I got 142! I missed most of the Pacific island ones, and all of those tiny little itty bitty ones like San Marino. Africa was my worst continent, by far
-
@Anagram: Me too! And then to top it off, I also memorized the capital of every country in the world (and can identify every country on an unlabelled map) because I am a HUGE dork and love geography! It has come in very handy though in my world travels
-
I got 116! Darn.
That being said, in high school I had them all memorized. I took a World History course (or something like that) and the final exam was a blank map and we had to fill in every country in the world. I only missed 4. Alas, that was a long time ago and my brain is obviously very gushy now.
While doing this test I had three minutes left and for the life of me couldn't get past 116. I started typing in things like "north pole," "south pole," and "Antartica." *hangs head in shame*
-
My score was so sad I can't even post it hahaha
-
I got 135. I struggled with Africa, Central and South America and some of the former Yugoslavian countries.
And I missed Vanuatu, which is kind of embarassing considering my grandparents lived there!
And Singapore, considering I have been there in the last couple of years. Whoops! -
Holy crap, my score was embarrassingly low.
Although I think given a bit more time I could do more. I was still thinking of countries as the clock ran out. And I totally forgot one country I've even visited! lol (Monaco)
