I got 29 after being willing to try it again. On some of them I tried to check out the background scenery as well as listen to their accent.

43 but I know I can do better if they spoke a little longer. Some lines were too short and didn;t contain the words that identify particular accents more easily.
The Brummie was about the easiest of all followed by the American from Indiana and the Glaswegian.

I'm so far sucking at this game, but I've noticed that the English guy is supposedly from a CITY called CHESHIRE. CHESHIRE is a COUNTY.
For the Americans among you, that's like saying I'm from the City of Texas.

26 in the end.
I like the top scores, one guy has put 'Asshatia' as his country.
In the 'last added' bit, someone put their name down as 'nan'. That made me titter too.

I think they were done in England. I noticed a typical English architecture in the background in one or two of the European accents. Most of the others were pretty much unidentifiable Western achitecture which could easily have been anywhere in Europe, US or even NZ, Aus etc. I don't think they would allow a well known landmark to give it away.

bah, when it gives you two countries that are right next to each other that sucks
and I got the Miami chick right, which is funny as I am from New York and it seems like people in Florida have the same damn accent.
and the black chick I got right, dunno how the hell I got the city right.
and what does it prove to have a high score on a test like this anyways?

And if you were a texan you'd believe it too. If your from Oklahoma you'd claim to descend from heaven itself. Damn Okies....

this program is full of bullshit, cause the people who they sample don't necessarily have typical accents.
it is impossible to tell an accent when it is all mixed up on purpose... some people migrate you know... then their accent is not what you think of it.

True, the guy from Glasgow didn't sound at all like a Weegie, his accent was far to refined instead of the coarse Scottish accent they have. I got it right but only cos I thought he looked a bit like the comedian Billy Connelly. He sounded more like a mix of English and Irish.
