Unfortunately the game froze up for me when I had 3 rounds to go!
But at that pont I had a score of 22.
Some of them were really hard, but it was fun :)

Woah.. didn't know people from Perth sounded like that..

They don't really, Australian accents aren't really determined by geographic location. So that was kind of a dumb one. There's more of a country/city distinction than a distinction between cities.

woot I got 53! I'm not overly surprised as I do pay attention to accents all the time :p but I think I got lucky on which city they were because there was only like 3 that I could tell. yay

Did you get the south african one right? It sounded very english to my ears.

[Neo]

Yep, and I got cape town right too! (the city she is from)

good work!
A lot of the european ones were a bit confusing but I guess I havn't really heard a lithuanian person talk before. I really only got the spanish one right because that's how rafael nadal talks, haha.

I picked Chile for the spanish guy because my old guitar teacher spoke like that and he was from chile even though they speak spanish there :rolleyes: the other ones I got wrong was lithuania (I picked latvia, but they are right next door to each other so they must sound similar!) and for the hungarian I picked luxembourg which I have no idea why :o
actually I'm looking at a map of the world and I totally thought Hungary was near Belgium and luxembourg was near russia haha woops!

[Deadcat Kaye]

I got 45. Wootness.

I've always been alright at picking out accents :D

[The Dying Start]

25 for me. A few i was torn between 2 places and chose the wrong one...never mind.

[strahanie]
