10 letters · 1 word · ~2s to type · 19 accepted answers on the sheet

Go past the first country or city a classroom map would show. We would type Micronesia: Deep Cut, +85, 10 letters, about 2 seconds on a keyboard. Do not burn the 25 seconds on Mexico or Morocco — those are Plankton. The trench answer is Marshall Islands (+100), but only take it if you can spell it cold.
