	Please note the regional assignments used allow for the data to be arranged in a user friendly format; they may not follow typical convention. Also, feel free to comment with any suggestions for improvement/corrections.

	I like the way it's laid out 'geographically', although admittedly it took me a minute to figure it out. I also like that this layout makes "Canada" the first country :)

	BenjSKs:	Oct 17th, 2009 at 02:16 GMT		9 points
	Thanks for the comment. It took me awhile to set it up that way, but I think it's worth it.

	HarryNJ:	Oct 17th, 2009 at 02:28 GMT		18 points
	Excellent. I really like the idea of roughly equal "bite size" chunks of countries. You did a good job of grouping them, IMO.

	Yeah, but did you get all the bonuses?

	Starstruck:	Oct 17th, 2009 at 08:37 GMT		12 points
	Nice quiz! Maybe you should accept just "Vatican" too, because that's how it has been taught for ages in Finland at least.

	confused:	Oct 17th, 2009 at 11:30 GMT		8 points
	Nice. I really like getting to think geographically without scrolling past the map. Also, someone pointed out to me that "rep congo" and "dem rep congo" are also standard sporcle shorthand.

	puse:	Oct 17th, 2009 at 17:10 GMT		0 points
	what are the bonuses??

	hero:	Oct 17th, 2009 at 17:25 GMT		7 points
	Awesome quiz!!

	Ourboros313:	Oct 17th, 2009 at 18:52 GMT		6 points
	I got two of the bonuses, but I can't think of the others. The pattern between the two I got is that they are both large territories (not islands) belonging to a country on another continent.

	Hey, kind of a dumb question, but I'd like to use this on my Capitals and Countries of the World quiz: I love your color scheme! Which colors (talking codes, "#XXXXXX") did you use for the header and the answer column?

	BenjSKs:	Oct 18th, 2009 at 23:27 GMT		5 points
	@randomhandle: I got the colors from an old map...here are the codes: Blue #7EAFD0, Brown #C49375

	BenjSKs:	Oct 18th, 2009 at 23:28 GMT		9 points
	@Starstruck & @confused: Thanks for catching those, I made the changes for Vatican, Dem Rep Congo, and Rep Congo. Let me know if you find any others...

	BenjSKs:	Oct 18th, 2009 at 23:31 GMT		5 points
	@Ourboros313: I would've liked to put in many more bonuses but the limit is 200 answers. So I could only do five...

	randomhandle:	Oct 19th, 2009 at 03:47 GMT		6 points
	Thanks very much! Great quiz, I loved it.

	snacktyme:	Oct 19th, 2009 at 17:45 GMT		13 points
	Awesome quiz!!! It's a lot easier playing this than the one with the map! I haven't got them all yet, but I'm on my way.

	jr495899:	Oct 19th, 2009 at 18:13 GMT		8 points
	this is a really cool layout, thanks!

	I was thinking antarctica would be a bonus, but it wasn't :(

	SWert:	Oct 19th, 2009 at 19:37 GMT		5 points
	Love the quiz, the regions were selected nicely and are similar to how I approach the Countries of the World quiz, from Canada and working south, etc. I tried Antarctica too but was disappointed, I did get three bonuses though! I wonder what the last two are...

	Ourboros313:	Oct 19th, 2009 at 20:05 GMT		5 points
	I got 4 of the bonuses, but I can't find the last one. Two are in South America, one in North America, and one in Western Africa.

	I couldn't do antarctica because the bonuses have to be aligned with a grouping to show up - and I didn't know which grouping to assign antarctica to...I suppose Oceania would work???

	Rycecube:	Oct 19th, 2009 at 20:52 GMT		5 points
	183 right. Yet somehow, I missed Japan. =/

	@danezinho: Eurocentric??? Please explain...

	bob100:	Oct 19th, 2009 at 21:15 GMT		6 points
	I'd say it was "North/East Africa" centric.

	dki39948:	Oct 19th, 2009 at 21:38 GMT		17 points
	dane-if your problem is that europe is all across the top, then perhaps you should rearrange the world map

	Valdemart, there can only be 200 answers (as mentioned above)...195 countries...therefore only 5 bonunes...

	Valdemart:	Oct 19th, 2009 at 23:27 GMT		-2 points
	sorry i didnt see that, why only 200?

	snacktyme:	Oct 19th, 2009 at 23:36 GMT		4 points
	Valdemart, is that your real name???, it's a sporcle admin thing.

	Valdemart:	Oct 19th, 2009 at 23:41 GMT		6 points
	ok, i get it, but it would be really cool if all the territories can be added

	dki39948:	Oct 19th, 2009 at 23:44 GMT		5 points
	valdemart-I agree, that would be cool...

	dki39948:	Oct 19th, 2009 at 23:46 GMT		7 points
	awesome quiz though!

	minus_the_bear:	Oct 19th, 2009 at 23:48 GMT		3 points
