I don't want to deter you, but I only managed 3/16, the pictures are nice though. :)

A very average 8.

Got places wrong even though I have visited them in the past.

I got five. Though as a quiz, it has some pretty stupid questions. "Portland, USA"? Might it be helpful to tell us which Portland?

And Nuuk, Denmark? Wouldn't it be more helpful to say Nuuk, Greenland? The technical political status of Greenland isn't all that relevant to a geography quiz.

Scoring 5 is no reason to launch a recount on whatsover credibilty grounds.

The keyboard warrior lies with me.
