	Awesome idea. But I believe Paris is in Lagos's timezone, not London's so that is correct.

	hungryj0e:	Sep 30th, 2009 at 18:59 GMT		2 points
	no UTC+14?

	HotSkitty:	Sep 30th, 2009 at 19:40 GMT		3 points
	Fixed some things, and added some bonus answers... ;)

	A_is_for_Addict:	Oct 1st, 2009 at 17:33 GMT		2 points
	Surely +9 should be Tokyo.

	eurythmech:	Oct 2nd, 2009 at 06:36 GMT		1 point
	Yeah, no Tokyo surprised me. Fun idea for a quiz, either way.

	alfienoakes:	Oct 19th, 2009 at 12:15 GMT		2 points
	hmm, looks out of the first few people to take this quiz, we had someone from the Soloman Islands and Tonga - well done for getting those right!

	Great idea for a quiz, and well executed. One quick thing: "Citys" should be "cities".

	Kairo:	Nov 4th, 2009 at 15:02 GMT		3 points
	Publish this now, Sporcle!

	Onno:	Nov 4th, 2009 at 16:32 GMT		2 points
	@alfienoakes: Honiara and Nuku'alofa are part of common Sporcle knowledge. ;)

	I already submitted this quiz: http://www.sporcle.com/games/MileHiJo/time_zone_cities. However, I have some different answers - UTC+2 (my source says Cairo is a bigger city); UTC+4 (my source says Baku is bigger); and UTC+11 (Noumea is definitely bigger based on multiple sources). I used CityMayors.com for the large cities and world-gazeteer.com for the smaller ones. Both of these sources are used in other Sprocle quizzes. What source did you use? There are also several other time zones with only tiny villages that I made as bonuses. Consider doing the same. Great minds think alike! :)

	And my mother said I wasted a year in the South Pacific...Apia, Honiara and Nuku'alofa prove otherwise. May not have a degree but I no more that 92.9% of people in this area!

	great quiz!

	csjoholm:	Nov 5th, 2009 at 04:50 GMT		1 point
	nice idea!

	Chase:	Nov 5th, 2009 at 07:16 GMT		0 points
	Great quiz! Got the last answer with :04 left :)

	Rossipotamus:	Nov 6th, 2009 at 12:57 GMT		1 point
	This is a tricky quiz, because aren't there certain places that don't implement Daylight Savings? For instance, when Daylight Savings Time is off, Phoenix, Arizona is the largest city in UTC -7. But Arizona doesn't implement Daylight Savings time, and operates on Pacific time March-November thus making some other city (Denver?) the largest in UTC -7, or Mountain Standard Time.

	Rossipotamus:	Nov 6th, 2009 at 13:02 GMT		1 point
	Lol not trying to split hairs, but I know Denverites are proud about their city and don't care too much for people from Phoenix :)

	Hamburger:	Nov 6th, 2009 at 15:15 GMT		1 point
	umm. I am pretty sure Magadan, Russia is the largest city in UTC+11

	HotSkitty:	Nov 7th, 2009 at 16:39 GMT		1 point
	Fixed, thanks. :)

	What is the 8:45 bonus? I tried every Australian town listed in UTC+8:45 and none of them worked.

	diving:	Feb 14th, 2011 at 00:16 GMT		1 point
	UTC -5 should say 'New York, New York' - the word 'city' isn't part of the name, its only used to differentiate it from the state and isn't needed when listed with the state. Although, why states are listed for some, but not for others?

	Didn't Samoa just change tot he other side of the dateline ;-)
