Agree, need more time. Going by city proper is always difficult. It seems ridiculous to me that Moscow is above Mexico City, even though strictly true, because the more common metro population puts Mexico City at almost double the population of Moscow.

I liked the quiz, but Glendale, Arizona and Upland, California are really the largest U.S. cities that begin with those respective letters. Please fix.

This was definitely a really fun game, but I'm confused. How is Beijing the largest world capital but then Buenos Aires the largest world city for B?

@TheBigE1980: My source lists Greensboro and Union City with a population of 259,523 and 76,462 respectively, while Glensdale and Upland has 255,662 and 72,154. Close, but not quite.
@beckala63: No sleep makes bad quizzes, apparently. Sorry about that, it has been fixed.
