I saw this Javascript-heavy site in another forum. The aim of the site is to list as many countries (recognized by the UN) as possible in 10 minutes. I thought that I knew Geography and English, but I still managed to forget almost half of them (I forgot 90 of a total of 192 nations). Here is the URL: http://andys.org.uk/countryquiz/ Are you better?
Thanks to google I can name them all.

Naming them and recalling them in 10 minutes without cheating is a difference. I tried it several times, and in one attempt, I left out almost the entire EU even though I surely know these nations exist.
I always forget the little discreet nations when I do these things.

126 named/66 remaining.
Should've been more/fewer, but for some reason I forgot about Switzerland and Austria, and the bloody thing refused to let me have 'Bahamas' (it wants 'The Bahamas') or Sao Tome e Principe (nope, has to be 'Sao Tome and Principe'). I'd say I really should've got half of the ones I missed.

16 countries remaining with 3:11 left on the clock. I have no chance of figuring out which countries I missed on my own.
edit: Got it down to 13.
I missed:
Democratic Republic of the Congo
Grenada
Marshall Islands
Mauritius
Micronesia
Republic of the Congo
Saint Kitts and Nevis
Saint Lucia
Saint Vincent and the Grenadines
Sao Tome and Principe
Solomon Islands
Sri Lanka
Vanuatu
I must've spent 30 seconds trying to figure out the Congo nations. Turns out I was skipping the word "the." Other than that, the only one I'm kind of embarassed about missing is Sri Lanka.

I timed myself on the post thread as I typed them.
I counted 93 nations. I have memorized the hispanic and brazil nations many times before to learn them as well as other nations from other regions of the world. I have memorized all of the European nations many times before, even if I did not get them all as I have not. I tried to memorize under presure the arab nations and did not do such a good job as I have memorized them many time before. Did some african, asian, and ocenia nations.
I left out some political entities that are not actually nations.
I am ashamed of myself that I did not get more, dissapointed actually. Both.
I like history, geography, biography, math, accounting bookkeeping, statistics, am a political addict, current events, gambler but I have ways to control it, am a copy holic.
Should I add lol to my sig?

I also attempted to enter Djibouti, Equatorial Guinea, Kyrgyzstan, and Tanzania, but got tripped up on spelling and moved on. Couldn't be bothered to type out "Democratic Republic of the Congo" either.
I also had to answer a phone call, since I'm at work, and missed out on about 45 seconds.
Not bad...still pissed I missed Germany though. :tongue:

I was doing them by conitinent, and I came to Africa last, hence I missed most of those (I was still typing when I ran out of time).
Can't believe I forgot Albania.

The clock came to a stop while I was busy typing "gambia", so I missed out on that by a fraction of a second. I was sure I'd typed in New Zealand, but apparently not. I got the Bahamas, but it refused it because I typed "Bahamas" instead of "The Bahamas". I'm annoyed at myself for forgetting Palau and Switzerland, though.
Oh, and I wasted time trying to figure out the spelling of Liechtenstein, before giving up on that.
