	A brief explanation about the Largest Non-Capital Cities - they are arranged by population of the primary urban area i.e. excluding the outlying suburbs.

	Steesh:	Jan 7th, 2010 at 12:26 GMT	5 points
	Nice quiz. Maybe accept numbers for the monarchs and surnames for historical figures. Possibly Ouse too (though I don't really know). All in all though 5 stars despite the colours hurting my eyes.

	DSNorth:	Jan 7th, 2010 at 12:29 GMT	3 points
	It should accept surnames for the historical figures, I will review that momentarily and amend if necessary. There is a separate river called the Ouse so I'm reluctant to allow it for Great Ouse. I state in the game notes that the monarchs require their Roman numerals, and besides I don't want to make it TOO easy! :D

	Agreed,best quiz I've played today. If the monarchs are to require their Roman numerals though, this doesn't seem to apply to typing in 'Elizabeth' at present.

	DSNorth:	Jan 7th, 2010 at 12:48 GMT	3 points
	Amended.

	Great quiz.

	Is Manchester not bigger than some of the other cities mentioned?

	DSNorth:	Jan 7th, 2010 at 13:17 GMT	2 points
	I was surprised too, Jason_H. Turns out that although Manchester is a physically bigger city, a lot of its population live in the Greater Manchester area (outlying suburbs) rather than in the city itself. The source I checked gave the populations for the primary urban areas only.

	Too US centric.

	DSNorth:	Jan 7th, 2010 at 13:35 GMT	-3 points
	@max123 - I'm not sure I understand?

	Aberdeen fc won the European cup winners cup in 1983, defeating Barcelona

	DSNorth:	Jan 7th, 2010 at 13:56 GMT	3 points
	awt6, the list is of teams that have won the European Cup or, as it's now known, the Champions League.

	stl100:	Jan 7th, 2010 at 16:00 GMT	3 points
	The football team is called "Celtic" and not "Glasgow Celtic". Otherwise, top quiz!

	Good quiz, maybe another category could be largest islands

	thehead91:	Jan 7th, 2010 at 17:19 GMT	0 points
	Is Isle of Wight actually a county? I thought, technically, it was Hants & IOW..

	Species8472:	Jan 7th, 2010 at 22:17 GMT	4 points
	Could you do maybe something about the colors. Try to mute it down a bit. But good quiz though.

	bluebebop:	Jan 8th, 2010 at 01:40 GMT	1 point
	like the quiz - colours are making me dizzy though

	DSNorth:	Jan 8th, 2010 at 09:30 GMT	2 points
	I've changed the colours to a darker blue background with white text, I had hoped to do red, white and blue but it doesn't really work! IOW is a county in its own right as it has its own county council.

	Great Quiz!

	julyrain:	Jan 15th, 2010 at 22:34 GMT	3 points
	can't believe I was spelling stansted wrong ha. Stupid, stupid!

	grendelsbayne:	Dec 23rd, 2011 at 12:16 GMT	1 point
	More than half is I think rather decent for a foreigner. I never knew Sussex had been divided into east and west (drove me crazy, as I was almost positive that it was on the channell...) Also some unexpected names on the currency. Would it be very wrong to accept 'clover' for shamrock? (as that's what Americans tend to think of it as, except in the context of st. patrick's day...)

	grendelsbayne:	Dec 23rd, 2011 at 12:17 GMT	1 point
	Three leaf clover, if you want to make it more specific...
