Brilliant game for you quiz loving freaks.

Just tried it - scored 103 but should have read the rules first - wasted the first minute trying to fathom it out. The most common country I missed was Israel, the least common I got was Solomon Islands although I would have got Burkina Faso had I known how to spell it.

Hi Roger,

Try this out.. Name every English Counties. I got them all in under 1 min and 30 sec.

Just done the urban areas - 71/129. Most common answer missed was Bedford, least common answer I got was Bury St Edmunds. Good old Greene King comes in handy sometimes!

My very first answer was my own home town, Tamworth! Naturally of course..

A bump for us late comers.

Great test, I scored 30 as I was distracted by Croc Dundee, but I will try again!

[ETA]

100/195, btu it wouldn't take Greenland (I suppose it's a colony of Denmark), any of the British protectorates or Bosina (it wanted Bosnia and Herzogovena). Fun though.

Here's another I saw recently, might be of interest to Hoppy among others.


Warning: includes clubs in their various and previous guises.

You will also be amazed at some of the teams you leave out!

[RogerB]

Good one - I thought it would be easier than it was - scored 57. The most obvious one I missed was Cambridge United. The hardest one I got was Redbridge Forest.

[Maldenman]

57 isn't bad, I've been following Conference football since it started (with a couple of gaps as my team dropped down), and I only managed 69. I even missed Luton.

[RogerB]

Dartford were only in it for a couple of seasons (he says giving one of the harder ones away) before being relegated and eventually forced out of the pyramid altogether so most of my non-league viewing has been at the levels below Conference. Barring a freak set of results that would have everyone looking to Malaysian betting scams, in a couple of weeks time we will only be 1 step away again!

PS what happened to the happy dance icon!
