| A bonus is just that, a bonus. Some may not realize a certain Russian city is actually outside of "Europe", so why not give it as a bonus? It hurts nobody and makes them smile. I did the same thing for all Turkish cities as well! Regarding Yekaterinburg, that one is real special as it can be thought of as either/or it falls JUST on the other side of the Ural's but even then, how do you define exactly where the Urals are? So it's a bonus (no sense in a penalty for missing a city so close and on the edge). Now, on to Azerbaijan, Georgia and Armenia... they can most certainly be thought of as being part of Europe but I realize full well some will argue (as you are) the opposite. If I excluded them we would have people insist they should be included! So I add them but do spell out clearly that they are considered a part of Europe in this quiz ...how can you complain about that? (but we see plenty who insist they must be right even though the map tells us something different) My suggestion is to relax, accept what is stated as long as it isn't crazy talk, as long as things are spelled out ahead of time (as they are) how can you get your panties all in a bunch? |
