Timed Quiz

To make the quiz a little more of a challenge, this is also a timed quiz. That means that you get points for getting the answer correct but you also get points for how quickly you answer. In fact, if you answer too slowly, you'll get nothing at all for that question ! Also, please note that we can only accept your first answer and you can't change your mind. So you need to make sure you think very carefully - but quickly !

In short, how fast you answer does affect your score !

We won't tell you how long you get to answer each question. However, to get onto the high score table you will need to very quick.

Multiple Choice

For the majority of flags we will show you four possible multiple choice answers. Generally, one or two of these will be obviously wrong. This should mean that even if you don't know the answer, you should be able to take an educated guess at the choices that might be correct. It also means that if you get less than 25% or 5 correct then you have been very unlucky indeed !
