How many countries can you name?

[DM]

this thread is really starting to remind me of those old IQ test ones, wherein people respond with things like 'i only scored 130 but thats because im tired and i was also watching tv at the same time'

lol this

I got 90, though I got bored and admittedly threw in the towel with a little over two minutes remaining

my excuse is that I've been reading the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure for the past 10 hours, so eat my weiner

 

[Guilan]

145/195 - missed the easy ones as greece and austria..

 

[Atlas]

51 plus these three assholes who are hard to spell (guyana, suriname, papua new guinea).

needless to say im a terrible gumshoe :( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uWmjT9yJkIg

 

[cim]

Since when is united kingdom a country? I spent a good 5 minutes typing england, scotland, and ireland with different spellings..

you're joking right

 

[Tenzuku]

I've gotten 152. Yay.

 

[PikaPete]

172- I have a great knowledge for extremely useles stuff like this, but I'm still struggling to remember words that I've been taught in Korean for the last 8 weeks or so....

 

[The Real Lady Gaga]

137/195. I missed the very obscure ones like Sau Tome and Principe.

 

[ivar]

101 well at last I got all of Europe. Missed almost the entire continent of Africa. I blame it on my geography teachers.

 

[Nerdling]

135. Damn those random, obscure island nations. There's so many of them!

 

[Platyp]

It didn't take Greenland for me. :(

 

[ghost]

i scored 139/192

 

[Onii]

It didn't take Greenland for me. :(

Probably because Greenland belongs to Denmark.

 

[ghost]

It didn't take Greenland for me. :(

lol

I missed some a lot of the African countries + Venezuela because at the time I couldn't spell them right.

 

[ghost]

Third time's golden, I guess. I'm up to 165/192.

 

[asim]

oh hey guys guess what, i did this quiz seven times today so now i got 195/195, haha you all suck im so smart :)

 

[chaos]

A few rounds of this and you could stomp the kids on who's smarter than a 5th grader

 

[JabbaTheGriffin]

I got 41 and I am completely happy with that because I remembered the proper way to spell Luxembourg.

Also shout out to the Dead Kennedys for helping me hit 40

 

[LonelyNess]

So I guess I'm an illiterate fuck because I only scored 61...

Also who the fuck knew it was Papau New Guinea and not just New Guinea???

 

[X-Act]

Any practical reason why I should know about Namibia?

I didn't think so.

I scored 76. I mentioned the 75 most important countries, and mine.

Any practical reason why I should know about Namibia?

Apparently these people http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Himba live there.

"The Himba never wash, even after childbirth birth. In order to get rid of body odour, they apply strong-smelling substances to their bodies. They do not wash their hands either - instead they use specific dust to clean their hands."

Great...

 

[Bad Ass]

82, got a few randomly obscure ones, missed a few gimmes! Pretty much just like everyone else

 

[A.P.]

149/195

Some of them, I knew, and they popped out of my head.

 

[Iluvtogekiss]

got 101/107 for the DP pokemon one

 

[Royal Regice]

98/195
I need to work on my geography.

 

[Great Sage]

175/195. Most of the countries I missed I actually knew; it just becomes very hard to see what you got and what you didn't after about a hundred countries.
