Hence why I said "I think" Tongue

The problem was I hadn't altered a line of code from the original, so when you got 50 countries named, it would stop the clock, thinking you'd completed it. I just replaced the value with the number of countries in the list Big Grin

I really should modify that script to make it more usable...

Oh yeah, apparently my original list (which I hastily copied off the internet) was a bit over-inflated. According to the UN, there are 194 countries (sovereign states) in the world.

I added Taiwan the that list, as well as Greenland (which got its independence earlier this year). So now there are 196 (and you get Taiwan and Greenland for free).

I got 116, but I should have had more since I couldn't find the english names of several countries.

That explains a lot of odd things Wink (as far as I know the isle of man, jersey and guernsey belong to the uk, and French Guiana, French Polynesia, Saint Pierre and Miquelon, and guadeloupe belong to France).

No way? Shock Greenland is independent now? Shock But there is nobody there! Joke
Please give me a home where cloud buffalo roam
Where the dear and the strangers can play
Where sometimes is heard a discouraging word
But the skies are not stormy all day
