Why waste time guessing the what's being guessed? How does this help sporclers learn anything?

@nowachi - i'm sorry you don't like the quiz. The aim was perhaps find out whether the countries YOU thought were the most obvious, were the most commonly guessed by fellow Sporclers. I'd also like to remind you a game doesn't have to help sporclers learn something to be enjoyable or popular - the quiz "1-100" for example is in the TOP 10 EVER PLAYED and this to me helps the Sporcler learn nothing.

Perhaps cutting down the number of correct answers for certain continents might be a good idea... 59% does not strike me as a very high percentage of people getting a country right, it just means there aren't as many in the area.

Would it be weird if someone used the results to this quiz for a "least guessed most guessed countries" quiz? Derived of the derived sort of thing? Really interesting how much Madagascar dropped from the original quiz to this one...

Great quiz! I like this continent-split version of this quiz. Good time limit, I was typing in the last one as the timer went! And re: nowachi's comment, the sporcle mantra has always been fun first, they aim towards being informative and educational, but being fun and/or interesting has always been the primary aim.

I think it's funny that Niger and Dominica are so highly guessed. For the most part, it's people trying to type Nigeria and Dominican Republic. I don't think either of those would get guessed half as much as they do if not for being part of the name of another country.

Agree completely about Niger and Dominica. Ive been to Dominica, but never would have gotten it if I hadn't been trying to type in the Dominican Republic. You also might try accepting United States for USA. Not a big deal, just confused me for a second.

I don't see the purpose in South America, to be honest. It's every South American country but two. A similar thing can be said about Oceania. Really interesting in Asia and Europe though.

@NorwegianSalmon: I somewhat agree with you about South America, but for the sake of being complete, I'd keep it in. But Oceania is a difficult area for many people to remember, note the six least guessed on
this
quiz are all Oceanic.
Also too much knowledge could really hurt you on this one. I'm an African American Studies major so I had to struggle to think of what countries other people would know.

I got all the countries for every continent until the last, then I filled in the only two I can ever remember for Australasia.
To be fair, this is only the top
correctly
guessed countries.

First time I see Australasia. Yes, it's Oceania. And very nice quiz, enjoyed it a lot ! the results on this quiz are also interesting. Why is China the most found and Canada before Usa ??

Maybe put Russia under "Europe" as well as "Asia" due to the fact it spans both continents. Of course you'll have to remove Finland if you do that. I also second the change from Australasia to Oceania. Other than those 2 logistical things, this was a very well done quiz.

@alphadog: im guessing Russia was just not in the top 10 for the Europe quiz, it wasnt just a matter of what continent it's in.

I was going to say I don't see how Ireland can be more guessed than the UK and I think the results from this quiz prove that :)
