    I got 125/196... not bad, although my mind went blank after a while.

    Oh, and be aware, the time starts as soon as the link is opened.

    I only got 83... I recognised all the country names after the time was up, but alas, I couldn't think of them under pressure, clearly

    80 on the count of 2 minutes, I kinda give up on guessing the country's name.

    Ugh, I got 68. Meaning I'm the lowest score so far there were some obvious ones I missed
    I'll go take some coffee, relax for a while, and try again ><

    I got 145 on my second go. I was meaning to take a screenshot of my first attempt but already closed the window before I took one.

    The countries in green are the ones I guessed correctly.



    Too bad I forgot Belgium and The Netherlands, which I guessed correctly on the first try... and what makes it worse is I've been to both countries!

    Don't worry about it. Guessing all these countries under pressure can be quite tough. I'm sure next time you'll do better.

    148, first try. But, I'm a geography nerd

    I'm actually angry I didn't get all of the non-island ones

    Also, I said Iran, but, it doesn't show up on the map for some reason *shrug*
    I was left to my own devices. Many days fell away with nothing to show. And the walls kept tumbling down in the city that we love. Great clouds roll over the hills, bringing darkness from above. We were caught up and lost in all of our vices. Oh where do we begin; the rubble or our sins? But if you close your eyes, does it almost feel like nothing's changed at all?

    92/196 - probably would have gotten more if I knew how to spell properly. XD

    I'd rather not talk about how many I got Never did like geography anyway I know that I know way, way more countries than what I could think of, but looking at a map doesn't help.

    I might try again in a week after I've studied google maps a bit

    68. I'll admit I was a bit impressed that I even got that far, but it's still rather sad. I guess it doesn't help that I didn't know any of the names of the Eastern European countries. That could possibly be chalked up to my having taken geography in grade school just as the USSR collapsed, so I never really learned the names of the new countries. I guess that fact makes me feel old, but it's still no excuse. It doesn't terribly help that I've never left North America, but hopefully that'll change sooner rather than later.

    Cool! It was a fun test, but two years ago I would have gotten around 60 only, for sure.
    My job has fixed that....

    I still hit a brick wall and couldn't figure out anymore...hmm.
    That and the spelling of some places..I had to redo the typing a few times lol.

    Raize you didn't add Malaysia in your map? *sniff*



    That's a good result guys, especially Utora and Raize, Looking for a country and trying to know their country name is hard. I'm glad I had 80 after gave up with 2 minutes left. I'm glad all the answers are high for you people.

    I'm not even gonna bother just looking at the world map makes me

    I remember back in school, for geography, we needed to learn all European countries for final exams mostly every year, or the 12 EEG countries, which was easy in the beginning, untill they kept adding and adding countries to it

    I don't even know more then half the countries in Europe anymore, lol.

    I'm still working on this... I scored 155 this time! And I named every single European country, including the micro-nations! Eurovision might have helped there... xD
