It's really kinda soothing to hear you come up with a bunch of city names. 😂 Your knowledge is incredible, by the way! I also think that the 30ish-minute length for this kind of video is perfect. Dividing the world into regions makes it easily digestible.
For me personally, I prefer the quizzes be done on the individual continent maps. I know there isn’t one for Oceania, but it’s easier on the eyes for me to have the dots more spread out and I have an easier time telling what I have missed
Loving this, looking forward to the rest! A "city" with an easy to remember name in French Polynesia is Faaa, more like a suburb of Papeete, but it has a fun name lol
There is another Palmerston (South Island) that is the reason for Palmerston North being called North, surprising it didn't pop. Also another name twin to remember for NZ is Havelock and Havelock North, named that way for the same reason. You only really missed 2 cities in Rotorua and Wanganui so that was a great effort! And the one on the South Island between Dunedin and Timaru you were trying to think of was Oamaru :)
I seems like it gave you Rockingham NC because there was a comma you put in there, but I don’t know why it would do the US when you have Australia selected
Australian maps show places that aren't towns bc of how sparse it is, i am only 5 mins in and Cocklebiddy is a motel (no town, just a motel and service station) because its in between a good days drive between the nearest towns. and Davenport is a station, a ranch you'd call it in America, it is only on maps bc it is the only nameable place in the area. NT and QLD has a lot of these stations that you'd think are towns but just massive cattle ranches. Also this quiz is weird with it's towns, actual towns (of reasonable size, i don't expect all tiny villages to be here like Ebor) like Merriwa and Charters Towers aren't in the map at all but some suburbs like South Wentworthville and Shellharbour City Centre are? i wanna know what data source they are using. And Kingston gave you Kingston in Tasmania bc it is bigger
You were definitely conned out of the markers for Kaikōura, Akaroa and Lake Tekapo (though it may have just been Tekapo in game?) there, those all do exist and were spelled right
This series is gonna be a lot of fun to watch and also a great opportunity to learn cities all across the globe…Can’t wait for India but please don’t disappoint me Jake lol😂😂…just kidding…Really enjoyed the video😁😁
Well done! I look forward to continents I'm more familiar with, ha. I think I could probably name six cities in Australia and two in New Zealand, max. I'd probably end up naming English cities, hoping they had duplicates. "Um, New Liverpool? South Birmingham? Other Portsmouth? Cardifferent? London II, Electric Boogaloo?" Oh, and YOU MISSED SOME OBVIOUS ONES! (I don't know which ones, but you told us to yell at you in the comments. Just following orders.😉)
The only two territories I can think of that you missed are Bougainville Island and Torres Strait Islands. I love the concept and I'm looking forward to future episodes!
13:25 Also unsure why it won't accept it. It's technically spelt "Kaikōura", but you didn't have to add the diacritic for other Maori names so idk. Good video, looking forward to the other continents (🇦🇶 moment?)
I mean, we australians are genuinely just lazy and almost always ignore the 'r' in words, or its a lot softer than other accents. Like for cairns and melbourne, we just act like the r isn't in the word, basically. Our accent sucks, we all sound like bogans 😂 Your knowledge is so impressive, its mindblowing how many places you can name! And it was pretty cool to get a newcastle shoutout, we're usually ignored because sydney is so close lol
How many regions would there be? And would you divide them geographically or by number of cities you are expecting to name like grouping together countries where you don't know many cities and giving a single episode to countries tou know well(for example US)? I know you just started series and probably didn't plan in advance
There's a few big towns in New Zealand that don't show up on this website for some reason: Kaikoura and Akaroa definitly should count, and there's others like Ohakune which definitely are large enough to show up but don't :/ Also you were thinking of Hokitika rather than Hokitiki
@@lcmortensen weird why it's like that for nz, many European and American countries have towns with populations down to just 10 people, and they even show up on the website
I'm not surprised that there is inconsistencies in different countries. Imagine the nightmare that is compiling this list. Having to get population data from around 200 countries with different definitions, varying levels of digital precences, different levels of knowledge of where the population resides. Imagine how many places in India or China houses 2500+ people. Should be several thousands each
Port Hedland, WA was maybe the most obvious one you missed, to me at least. I knew a few others in the Pacific but you had a good 50% more than me in NZ/Aus. Also you didn't type in Kingston, Norfolk Island, but I guess you didn't know Kingston, Tasmania that it gave you so it evens out-if you're trying to not accidentally get ones you don't actually know best to type in the territory and also probably US states
Easter island count ? wake island too ? papua from indonesia (maybe not) ? johnson atoll ? midway island ? east timor ? don't know ? and hawaii i can understant because its united states (a state) even its in the pacific
I was planning to do Easter island as part of SA, papua and Timor as part of Asia, and Hawai’i as part of the US. As for the others, I don’t know of any cities in those places!
It's not interesting at all. It's fucking mindblowing. 150? I would be proud if i knew 7 in australia and 3 in new zealand and maybe one random on a pacific island.
