	I'm sorry, I feel that there are TONS of unpublished quizzes out there that deserve recognition more than this. This is cute, but it doesn't really have a point.

	Thats seriously stressful... just trying to get your brain not to jump around madly and be efficient. Which I totally failed to do.

	I couldn't even keep my fingers going consistently. Crazy quiz, involves panicking :)

	First one I tried was Bandar Seri Begawan

	Okay, admit it, everybody who typed Sri Jayawardenapura Kotte was just trying to mess with the statistics.

	Interesting to find out what your brain pulls up. I didn't even know what Monrovia was the capital of, must be too much sporcling.

	That didn't go near as badly as I thought it would. Managed 25 just trying to remember those short enough to type efficiently.

	It is fun to see how the brain can deal with such pressure. besides efficiently going for the same name capitals, I managed to get out Kigali, Andorra La Vella, and Tegucigalpa...no clue.

	I can name most of 'em, just can't type 'em in so fast :(

	I mean: No idea what made Managua and Tarawa pop into my head with less than 5 seconds left

	What I think is really interesting about this quiz is the results page gives a detailed insight into the most famous capitals in the world - according to SPorcle users (and, let's face it, we're the ones that matter most ;o) ) - I know there will be anomalies but I think over time it'll be interesting to see which capitals are in the first column - and so far they are not the shortest ones first!!

	So has the "Sporcle standard" capital of Palau become Ngerulmud now? It was usually just Melekeok before.

	This is about 80% geography and 20% speed typing. ;)

	I got totally thrown off by it jsut accepting "vatican" and had about 7 capitals typed out behind it before I noticed.

	1447:	May 11th, 2010 at 14:38 GMT	1 point
	@Onno: Don't think so, but Palau's capital is, and has been since 2006, Ngerulmud, not Melekeok. Melekeok and Ngerulmud are separate villages, located about 2 km apart. Both are located in the state of Melekeok though, maybe that's why people seem to think Melekeok is the actual capital. Look at the image below and you'll see the location of both Melekeok and Ngerulmud: http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/5/50/State_of_Melekeok.png

	Ouagadougou is by far my favourite world capital name.

	This quiz is the devil! 195 answers in 60 seconds: good luck.

	ToughQuiz:	May 11th, 2010 at 16:59 GMT	3 points
	The list is far too long for a blitz quiz. Divide it up into continents; Europe, Asia, and Africa would provide decent challenges for 60 seconds.

	Mind-numbing.

	@tigerschick: If this was a "detailed insight into the most famous capitals in the world - according to Sporcle users" , wouldn't Bishkek have more than 1.2%? All hail the Kyrgyzstani capital!

	@ToughQuiz: That's the point. This is Tetris of the sporcle world; you can't beat it, you can only hope to improve your score the next time round.

	O goddess! My brain totally froze up, and all I could pull out of it were hard to type capitals like "Tegucigalpa" and "Copenhagen". Finally I said "short! Short!" and I got "Rome" and "Paris" and "Lomé". (Lomé?!?!?)

	staying calm in this game is impossible. absolute information overload! i love the fact that sri jayawardenapura kotte was above some simple european capitals. good ole' sporcle!

	dominiquef:	Jun 12th, 2010 at 19:57 GMT	4 points
	Sri Jayawardenapura Kotte is the capital of Sri Lanka. Thing is, I bet the quiz also accepts Colombo. So that's why it's above a lot of others.
