Good quiz! Managed 23, with a few more minutes would have gotten nearly all I'd say...

Yeah alot of the ones on this list seem so easy but there are so obscure that it makes them difficult.

Very nice quiz. This is really tough, especially since I don't usually think of many of these capitals.

I think you shouldn't nitpick about Yaren. It's accepted across Sporcle as the capital of Nauru. I'd also consider putting these in alphabetical order (or alpha order by country). Makes it a hair easier, and provides the player with another way to think about it other than just scouring the globe for capital cities. Fun quiz.

Fantastic quiz, really enjoyed it, thanks! Would it be possible to put the 4 letter words and 5 letter words in alphabetical order in their respective groups please? You might not want to but I think it would make an already tricky quiz a tiny bit easier.

I think Yaren should be accepted as it is recognized as a capital by the majority of sporcle quizes, good quiz though :-))

Could add Wien & Praha as bonuses as they're 4-5 letters in their native tongue

I somehow got Yaren and Juba, but missed Oslo, Riga and Amman (amongst others)....a case of late night Sporcleitis methinks.
