How many CAPITAL cities do you know?!

Me:

You got 178 out of 197 answers correct

That's been nudged up from about 130 over the past few days, really want to know all of them though it will take some doing, some capitals no matter how much you repeat and learn they just don't stick, I'll get there though.

Will be interesting to see if anyone here knows EVERY single one...

I'll google it and will know all and post.

I got stuck on Algiers.

 

[Lord Bracknell]

Irritatingly, I didn't notice the time limit and fannied around doing other stuff as well. Then the answers to the unfinished questions came up.

90 but to be fair they keep changing the names of countries and capitals!

I gave up at Mexico City. It's too hard.

Impressive.

Thanks, literally just been sitting learning them over the past few days, I'll get to that magic number of 197 soon.

lol

that is bloody impressive if it was your first go?

i got 106

No, must have done it about 10 times in the past few days, score nudging up by 4 or 5 each go.

All of them - what do I win?

I scored 141 in the time. Fiji and Nicaragua were the ones I should have known but couldn't remember or didn't notice in the time. There were quite a few there I didn't have a clue about, especially African countries and islands in the Pacific.

97 / 197. That sucks. I used to be a whizz at these 30 odd years ago but they keep changing.....

I'll tell you what's bloody impressive - DS quoted your question and answered it before you'd even asked it!

202 out of 197. Get in!

Geography is easily my worst subject. For example, although I've been to most of the main cities in the UK, I wouldn't be able to point any out on a map!

So other countries and capitals - forget it. If I try it I'll probably scrape about 10

Edit: just tried it and got 24/197. To be honest I hadn't even heard of most of them, but there were a few I recognised but couldn't think of the country. I surprised myself with Nairobi, although I did type "Africa" first haha
