	Impossible within the time limit, unless you memorize.

	Quizhappy:	Jan 2nd, 2010 at 07:15 GMT	4 points
	I agree, it needs 20 minutes.

	Timoteus:	Jan 2nd, 2010 at 13:31 GMT	5 points
	I liked this but it would be better if the population and region were in the hint and not in the extra column. As it is now you have to scroll up and down to remember in which part of the world the next country is. Also I got stuck on Africa a couple of times because of the rather odd split-up. I would never have considered Angola to be in West Africa nor Zimbabwe to be in Central Africa. I suggest using the UN subregions for Africa: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Africa_map_regions.svg

	Grawk:	Jan 2nd, 2010 at 13:33 GMT	4 points
	I like the idea, but the scrolling just gets too tedious after a while

	jayke:	Jan 2nd, 2010 at 14:33 GMT	3 points
	Ireland is down as being in Oceania, its in North West Europe.

	egernunge:	Jan 2nd, 2010 at 15:14 GMT	3 points
	And Suriname is listed as South Africa; it should be South America...

	SOAR21:	Jan 2nd, 2010 at 16:05 GMT	1 point
	Sorry for all the screwups. And I was thinking of more time too, but somehow I only got 15 minutes max. Maybe I didn´t scroll down far enough.

	Josh:	Jan 2nd, 2010 at 20:26 GMT	1 point
	20 minutes is definitely the minimum for this :)

	yellowcarpet:	Jan 2nd, 2010 at 20:46 GMT	1 point
	Angola and Guinea are West Africa. Really confused me for a while. And Rwanda and Burundi and Malawi should probably be central Africa.

	SOAR21:	Jan 2nd, 2010 at 21:03 GMT	1 point
	I had Angola and Guinea as West Africa earlier, but the recommended UN designations classify them as Central Africa. Similar situation with Rwanda and Burundi, although I agreed that Malawi was East Africa. Besides, I am stranded in an airport in Peru that gives me rather much time to change anything else needed.

	AlabasterS:	Jan 2nd, 2010 at 22:26 GMT	2 points
	I wish there was a map to show you which countries belonged to which regions. eg Afghanistan is listed here as 'central asia', when the UN geoscheme indicates it as 'southern asia'.

	SOAR21:	Jan 3rd, 2010 at 02:20 GMT	1 point
	Ok. I will change everything to fit the UN geoschemes, seeing as that's how i fixed Africa in the end.

	tb1:	Jan 5th, 2010 at 13:51 GMT	1 point
	Liberia is not Central America.

	Kalimantan:	Mar 28th, 2010 at 05:08 GMT	1 point
	Guinea and Liberia are West Africa, not Central Africa - they have to be considering they are further west than Ghana and Cote D'Ivoire that are correctly listed as West Africa
