- I tried to complete these 10x10 geography grids by naming cities that meet the criteria (population, spelling, location etc.)
Thanks to darin and hugequiz for the quiz:

Thought you would enjoy this type of quiz!
I started playing them based on your comment from the letters quiz. I've enjoyed it quite a bit, except there are certain things that I don't want to know. I don't want to know the 21-30th largest city in Indonesia or Poland. That seems far down a slippery slope.
On the US one, which doesn't have a lower limit on population limit, I think there is exactly one Rhode Island town that starts with the letter F...and it has fewer than 5k people. I don't want to know that trivium.
It's Foster, RI.
p.s. I realize this is my problem and not yours.
What’s up with Johannesburg? Never works in your quizzes
Hugequiz mid
@@og1e816 so Johannesburg is a very large municipality which has a large number of "places" within it, including the place of Johannesburg which has a much smaller population. Soweto is actually the largest city proper place in South Africa.
Discovered your channel today and binged so many videos! Surprised that you knew my hometown Gelsenkirchen :)
Some fun facts about it: it was the founding place of the first blood donation center in the world, it was one of the biggest coal mining cities in Europe, it’s the poorest city in Germany and it houses the most modern arena of the country.
Thank you so much! Fun facts about Gelsenkirchen!
I've heard of Ordos as a place in Inner Mongolia, which probably explains why it doesn't sound Chinese. I think it is where the gold for the medals of the 2012 Olympics in London was mined.
Really interesting! I love discovering this places I would never hear of otherwise. 🙂
Loving the videos. Hoping you can learn more about cities in China specifically cause they have some of the largest populations. You can round out your entire worldwide knowledge. China keeps popping up on all the quizzes. 😄
Osasuna is not a place in Spain. I think you were referring to the football club Osasuna, which is in the city of Pamplona.
That makes sense. It's hard for me to know if it a place name or team name sometimes. 🙂
Vancouver is the 7th biggest city in Canada with Toronto, Montreal, Calgary, Edmonton, ottawa and Mississauga having more people
Ah, Vancouver proper. I was thinking metropolitan areas, where it's third.
@@wmcduff I was yelling why he didn’t write my city of Calgary but I realized it was third proper
This one was a lot of fun to watch! Can't wait to see you try again!
You should do this again... I really liked this one, and it is completely replayable which is good...
So weird that places in USA are listed by which state they're in when that's completely irrelevant. Plus none of the cities have the country specified anyway. Sometimes they just do weird exceptions for USA that makes no sense.
Great job on the quiz! As always some pronunciation advice even tho I think I specifically said these two places before. In Mandarin, all "-zhou" cities are pronounced similarly to "Joe" in English. It's not "Jow". That would be spelled "zhao" in pinyin. Secondly, with "gli" in Italian the g is silent. So Cagliari is pronounced "CULL-ya-ree", emphasis on the first syllable. Definitely not "Cag-lee-AH-ree", that's literally painful :D
I’m a Russian native speaker, I can speak English and I’m learning Spanish. I notice that a lot of times I grab the wrong pronunciation (Rio Gallegos) or incorrect gramma (No Bueno) from English-speaking channels, I try to use it in my life and discover that what I learned was not correct!
guangzhao is painful everytime i hear it said like that 😭 thankfully he said it right during the retake of the quiz
I really do appreciate that! Hard to unlearn a lifetime of bad habits! 😂
@@MrQuiz Amen to that. I've been struggling with internalized pronunciation mistakes in English when I was young and the internet was not as wide spread as it was later on. You don't wanna know how kid and teen me pronounced things
.. XD
Love to see you do sport quizzes
You really got screwed over on the 4-10th north of 60 degrees in Norway, I deducted that they went by minicipalities as otherwise you would have gotten it, Trondheim is the 3rd largest, Stavanger is 59 degrees north and Tromsø is 12th
Salé is a city in Morocco 😁😁
Yes please play cricket quizzes too. Just a one-off for this channel
One day perhaps! 🙂
Does anyone know the greeting he says at the beginning of videos. I thought it was "Hello all," but now I think I was just reading into it. Is it a different language? Something from New Zealand?
I believe he says kia ora, its a maori greeting
Indeed - it's "kia ora", which is a Māori greeting and "ka kite ano" at the end which is a farewell. 🙂
@@MrQuiz Thank you! Always learning something new on this channel, it's great.
Isn’t oamaru a quit big city in aotearoa for the category starts with o ?
Good knowledge! Oamaru is a little small though - it's only a bit bigger than 10,000 people. 🙂
Oruro is an easy guess for South America :)
Very nice
*Fort Worth, not forth worth (probably just a typo but that is why it didnt count)
It also has near 1m people
Damn
Tromsø does not end with o
it's English transliteration, otherwise Chinese cities don't end in any letter :)
Why are you naming the biggest city when it says 4th-10th biggest in country
Sometimes the city populations can vary from what you expect based on the way populations are counted, especially with city vs metro populations, how suburbs are managed etc. Every country is slightly different so I try and be exhaustive. And sometimes my fingers just need to keep moving while I think! 😂
@@MrQuiz ok, but it’s not like nyc or London would be smaller than la or Birmingham
