	Monash has a campus in Italy, but it's based in Australia.

	What a peculiar selection.

	Would be easier to spell Hopkins with one less S, and an N...

	While there are a couple trinity colleges in the U.S., by far the most famous is in Dublin, Ireland. Kings College should probably be UK for similar reasons, and, as mentioned above, Monash is from Australia.

	I would argue that the most famous Trinity college is in Cambridge not ireland.

	The Cambridge one is part of Cambridge University though, not a university in itself. Technically TCD is also part of the University of Dublin, but since it's the only constituent college, to all intents and purposes it's actually the same thing.

	As a US citizen living in the US, I had no idea there was a Kings College (or University?) in the US; I'm familiar with the one in the UK (as I have a recording from their chapel choir). Also, I would think of Trinity as the one in Dublin, even though I'm also familiar with Trinity College at the University of Toronto, and also (of course) the one at Oxford. Didn't know there's one in the US, but it's not surprising either.

	Also - not to do with this quiz, but why isn't there a Mixed Word puzzle in the Daily Dose section for today? I got here by going to the one from the previous day and clicking "next".

	RIP Mixed Word

	I didn't see an announcement about the daily Mixed Word puzzle going away. What happened? I was just starting to get kind of okay at these.

	@churchgeek... sporcle have decided to no longer publish mixed word quizzes, thsi is due to not enough people having lots of enthusiasm for them. I was also very dissappointed as a great lover of mxed word. Unfortuantely, it is is RIP mixed word, but there are still many great mixed word quizzes to check out!

	@Toby123 - that is very sad news. I love my mixed word puzzles and looked forward to doing them every day. Does this mean there will still be mixed word puzzles but they won't be published?

	Toby123:	May 23rd, 2012 at 17:35 GMT		4 points
	@planetmutty, from what I understand from sporcle, yes I emailed them about it to ask why, here is the exact email I sent and Sporcle's reply... Toby123: Hi, I would like to say I am very dissapinted that the mixed word is no longer going to part of The daily dose. I know for sure that many people loved the mixed word quizzes and it is very dissappointing that it will no longer be part of sporcle. I just don't get it, is there a particular reason for it? Personally, I think that if you wanted to remove anything from the daily dose, it should be the minuite morsel. Will there still be any more mixed word published? Toby123 Sporcle Reply: Hello Toby123 Thanks for taking the time to write in. Mixed Word became a daily Sporcle feature (and soon thereafter its own iOS app) in the fall of 2010. Since then it has been featured every day amounting to hundreds of quizzes! Sadly, all good things must come to an end (we still miss Arrested Development), and while we realize you loved the Mixed Word, there weren't enough people like you to warrant the amount of time and effort that went into creating quizzes every day. There are 11 game packs for the app and hundreds of Mixed Word quizzes on Sporcle.com (http://www.sporcle.com/games/subcategory/mixedword). So if you love Mixed Word there are lots and lots of games to play. As a parting gift, we have updated the app with a no-timer option. Again thanks for writing in, as always we appreciate hearing from our users. Regards, Sporcle --Sporcle Support-- If you want to put in a complaint go ahead, it would be good to see if we can get mixed word back, although it doesnt look like we will :) Toby123.

Thanks for filling us in on all of that. I had just created a bookmark to this quiz so that I could keep coming back after it was gone from the main page. I guess now I won't need to do that. I am glad to see they added a no-timer option to the app, as I had a bear of a time typing answers in using my iPod Touch, and almost always ran out of time.

	@marbrown, very welcome, as I mentioned I heard nothing about it until i emailed sporcle. It is a shame but I suppose we will have to get used to a sporcle with no mixed word! By the way, if anyone has any more questions re- mixed word, i will be glad to try and fill in any problems, see my page for my email :)

	Yes, thanks for the explanation Toby, simply seems to be a case that not enough people were playing them. Very disappointing, I agree. Still, Sporcle with no mixed word puzzles is better than no Sporcle at all.

	@planetmutty, total agreemnt :) But we can play mixed word still, just they wont be published!
