Season 118 - Tie-Break

Average elevation of countries 14 countries have an average elevation above sea level of 1,500 meters or more. List as many of the countries as possible.

List as many of the countries with an average elevation above sea level of 1,500 meters or more as possible. Listing countries that do not have an average elevation of 1,5000 meters or more will deduct a point. You can answer several times until 9 o’clock CET tonight (14 March). You answer by sending a chat message to the page. There will be no continuous update of who has the most correct answers, nor will the quizmaster answer whether or not an answer is correct or incorrect when it has been submitted. Players are allowed to delete submitted answers until the deadline, if they realize an answer given might be incorrect. 

If two or more players finish with the same number of tie-break points, the player who has given the most correct answers (but also more incorrect answers) is the winner. If the players are still tied, they will get a new question, where they will be asked for one answer to a question, they will not know the exact answer to. The player who comes closest to the correct answer will then be declared the winner.

Everybody can play along of course, but it will not give anybody additional points - the-tie break is only meant to sort out the ranking of the top players.

Example:

Player one names the following countries:

A, B, C and D and X, Y and Z

Player two names the following countries:

A, B, and C and X

A, B, C and D are correct answers

X, Y and Z are wrong answers

Therefore

Player one has a score of 1 (4 correct minus 3 incorrect)

and

Player two has a score of 2 (3 correct minus 1 incorrect)

Thus Player two wins with a score of 2 even if player one had more correct answers overall.
