How many countries can you name?
« on: November 10, 2011, 02:08:11 PM »

I got stumped at 88 and sat, braindead for 5 minutes. I realized i've got no knowledge of african countries.

So come on cd.com, who is our geography champion? Just like the fantasy football thread, i GUARANTEE a fantastic prize for the winner.

Guarantee.

Dammit, 81!

Actually I'm impressed, geography is NOT my strong point.
Some of the numerous spelling attempts were just...  :facepalm:

Not even gonna put my score down...

Heavy case of brain freeze. I used to be able to name and draw all the Americas, at least all of E. Coast Africa, also forgot half of the middle eastern countries I discussed earlier today... I suck at tests.

vatican city derives from the lateran council of 1929. african countries derive from european colonialism.

I typed Palestine in multiple times. I can assure you it isn't there... I still can't get over forgetting BOTH Koreas. That would have put me level with the Fish man...

if my auntie had balls she'd be my uncle.

if you can get the UN to recognise palestine as a sovereign nation state then you can add the point to you, and to me too

It seems Iraq and Lichtenstein aren't countries after all. My advice is not to fuck around with Africa, do the obvious ones and leave. The Caribbean is a goldmine.

I obviously spelled L-I-E-chtenstein wrong. Make that 101 for a moral victory.

Iraq just didn't work when I did it. 102 in that case.
