Title: Sporcle Post by: SweetSassyMolassy on July 30, 2009, 04:05:54 am Has anyone else been to sporcle.com? If not, I recommend trying. It's very addicting. If anyone can beat 135 countries on the "name all the countries in the World" quiz, post your score.

Will try it now. Edit: You got 159 out of 195 Countries of the World. Last minute or so I was pretty lost :-X As for the US, I got 42/50 and then blocked out completely! Title: Re: Sporcle Post by: Death 999 on July 30, 2009, 05:42:34 pm I haven't tried, but it seems to me that the trick would be to do it in some sensible order. And of course you need to know the material. I could do the US states, since I'm very familiar with their arrangement, but I don't have the countries of, say, Africa properly mapped out in my head. Even though I know the names, and know where most are, it's not enough.

Damn spending 30 seconds trying to spell Leichtenstein, and another 30 trying to spell Suriname! Title: Re: Sporcle Post by: SweetSassyMolassy on August 01, 2009, 05:36:47 am Wow, very impressive. I had to practice to get to 135. The African and Micronesian countries are the hardest.
Title: Re: Sporcle Post by: Cedric6014 on August 01, 2009, 06:39:36 am I'm the biggest geography geek ever.
