	You should make New York an acceptable answer for New York City.. after all.. the real name of the city is New York.

	Even the word "skyscraper" is subjective. Some people consider a skyscraper to be 500' or more, in which case many of these cities don't even have one.

	@scoripyo: Washington is the name of the only city in the District of Columbia. If Washington were in Virginia, it would be "Washington, VA" like it is "Washington, DC" now.

	Please fix "Miama"

	Honolulu is not in North America. Hawaii may be part of the US, but it is not in North America.

	Ha! Miama is how Miami, a town in Oklahoma is pronounced. I didn't think DC had many sky-scrappers and I used to live there. The height is pretty uniformed and it's not that tall.

	High rises aren't the same thing as skyscrapers - in fact, a high rise building is defined in your own source as being shorter than a skyscraper. Which is perhaps why Washington, a city famous for not having any skyscrapers, is listed here.

	Cartman: Just click the 'Create' tab at the top like you do when you want to make a quiz. A list of the ones you've made is on the right, and 'EDIT' is linked in red next to each of them.

	Great quiz idean but brutal execution. I typed Miami like 100 times. Tried, dade, miami beach, whatever... I also have to agree that Arlington doesn't fit there. I'm also surprised that the numbers for Miami & Vancouver are as low as they are. A height definition would be useful. Also, I thought Panama City would make the list... Nonetheless 18/20 (missed 'Miama' & Arlington)...

	jjjurrens:	Apr 16th, 2011 at 01:51 GMT	1 point
	Agree with everyone else, fix Miami and New York, PLEASE!
