	Death Valley (note spelling) is not the place w/ the highest recorded temperature. That would be Al Aziziyah, Libya (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Al_%27Aziziyah). And what the hell is an oceanic lake? The Caspian Sea is a lake...period. You fail.

	Accept Libya for Al Aziziyah, or change the format of the quiz.

	cantthinkofaname:	Oct 3rd, 2010 at 04:30 GMT	6 points
	bad bad format, as soon as you don't know an answer, you're out. Not fair, it might be the first question, and you could know every other answer but you get 0 because the one you don't know happens to be first.

	You basically eliminated any chance of finishing with that AIDS question. No one is going to immediately think "Swaziland" on a question that according to your time limit should take 4 seconds or less to answer.

	Australia and Chile, among many others, also border 3 oceans. Australia borders the Indian, Pacific and Southern, and Chile borders the Atlantic, Pacific and Southern.

	@smarty: Australia and Chile don't border the Southern Ocean. Only Antarctica borders the Southern Ocean. Check it out: https://www.cia.gov/library/publications/the-world-factbook/geos/oo.html

	Al Aziziyah.. Woah, I wanna meet the person who got that one on the first try.

	moonsouljah:	Oct 3rd, 2010 at 16:38 GMT	13 points
	Honestly who's going to know the capital of France. Where the hell is France?

	AutonomusPlebian:	Oct 3rd, 2010 at 16:46 GMT	5 points
	Was it necessary to make us answer in order?

	gowhere:	Oct 3rd, 2010 at 18:23 GMT	2 points
	@chriskotx: When and where? But really, that is a weather question which any weather geek could answer - the record has been standing since 1936. Of course, they would also have to be a geography geek to be able to answer what Paramaribo is the capital of, and a health geek to answer the AIDS question. But isn't that part of what sporcle is all about?

	ig1234:	Oct 3rd, 2010 at 19:06 GMT	6 points
	Erk, didn't see the timer until last 10 seconds!

	Shannon:	Oct 3rd, 2010 at 19:21 GMT	5 points
	the time limit is ridiculous...you need to extend it

	sehh:	Oct 3rd, 2010 at 21:20 GMT	4 points
	Way to short on time, maybe give 4-5 minutes.

	HiddenPalace:	Oct 3rd, 2010 at 21:24 GMT	6 points
	Accept 'Angel' if you're going to accept 'Red', 'Caspian' etc.

	BlueBeetle:	Oct 3rd, 2010 at 22:25 GMT	0 points
	Fun quiz!!! Thanks!

	eagle22:	Oct 4th, 2010 at 01:20 GMT	1 point
	Way for me to pick a random country for a report last year - Suriname!

	Kahlvin:	Oct 4th, 2010 at 02:15 GMT	4 points
	I got Swaziland, but only because I answered it for the country encased by South Africa.

	yodaman69:	Oct 4th, 2010 at 03:03 GMT	-3 points
	I just wasted my time on this quiz...but the good news is that i just saved a bunch of money by switching to Geico. Geico can save you 15% or more on car insurance.

	imclala:	Oct 4th, 2010 at 20:22 GMT	2 points
	I never realized until I took this quiz that I had no idea where Timbuktu was.

	Ackbar:	Oct 5th, 2010 at 20:49 GMT	1 point
	Need more time dude, way too short.

	alleyt1989:	Oct 6th, 2010 at 12:52 GMT	2 points
	not sure if you just extended the time recently, but i thought this was fine?

	Spike919:	Oct 6th, 2010 at 15:36 GMT	-1 points
	why isnt australia a country that can be chosen for a country that is surrounded by 3 oceans. To start we have the indian, pacific and southern oceans and a lot of seas to go with that

	Spike919:	Oct 6th, 2010 at 15:40 GMT	1 point
	@Jam1: u guys can think wat u want bout the southern oceans location but if u ask any aussie we will all count southern as touching the south coast of australia http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Southern_Ocean

	dlte:	Oct 6th, 2010 at 19:22 GMT	1 point
	For the highest recorded temperature, could you at least tell us if you wanted the city or country?

	mbc:	Oct 6th, 2010 at 22:28 GMT	1 point
	I play Sporcle quite a lot and that's the first car insurance ad I've seen. I hope it doesn't become a regular thing. Unless it's an in joke I'm not getting in which case carry on.

	Wing:	Oct 7th, 2010 at 15:08 GMT	0 points
	On the "3 oceans" question, you might also consider accepting South Africa - Atlantic, Indian, and Southern. Also, you could arguably count Russia, since it has coasts on the Baltic Sea (Atlantic).

	kagomeshuko:	Oct 9th, 2010 at 00:32 GMT	1 point
	a little more time would be nice. Good quiz, though!

	Executor111:	Oct 9th, 2010 at 21:32 GMT	1 point
	@Spike919: Did you just counter a CIA World Factbook article with a Wikipedia article? Weak stuff. And "if you ask any aussie" isn't a viable source either. Get a source or don't complain.
