	There are two kinds of people in this world: those that say 'checker board' and those that say 'chess board'.

	I wonder why a wrestling ring is called a "ring" when it's actually a square?

	I wonder when there will be a sporcle user who doesn't remember the floppy disk and therefore wouldn't be able to get that one.

	Dice are cubes...their faces are squares.

	For the 4th image in the bottom row, could record be accepted? I put in CD and that was accepted (I was going for record album cover then cd cover). Great quiz- some of those did make me think a little lol.

	Maybe it was just me, but it was really hard to tell that was a napkin. Now that I know that's what it is, I can kind of see the ridging around the two sides, but I must have tried nearly every variation of notecard/letter/stationary/wedding invite/origami paper I could think of.

	@Zschlitty: What about those that call it a "draughts board"?

	4th pic in the 2nd row...I see those all the time, but I didn't realize that they had a name.

	Lprdgecko: That's why they sometimes (though rarely nowadays) call it the squared circle.

	I didn't realize iPod Nanos are square now. Mine's a rectangle, but I've had it for five or so years now. And I agree with ArturU about the Post-It thing. I tried post-it, post it, and postit before finally trying post-it note and getting it. Most people just call it a post-it.

	J_to_the_eph: I don't know, people usually have a sense of what technology from before they were born looks like. I was born in the 80s, but I'd recognize a 1970s arcade game, or a 1950s room-sized computer, or a biplane, or one of those cameras where the photographer ducks under a black cloth.

	Does anyone remember when floppy discs actually WERE floppy? I was pretty much raised with early 90s computers... when I was a kid and the smaller thicker floppy disc came out, I thought that was what a "hard disc" was.

	I took forever to get QR Code. I think QRC should be accepted also.

	mccat:	Feb 22nd, 2013 at 05:24 GMT		8 points
	Thanks for just accepting code. I tried bar code thinking maybe that was close enough. I thought the napkins were post-it notes. Never could work out that it was a napkin.

	So...if it's a sticky note, why does it need to be pinned to the wall?

	You should really accept something like tag, scan tag, scannable tag or mobile tag. I'm sure lots of people know what those are without knowing the "scientific" name.

	I had trouble with QR code. Finally, out of desperation, I decided to try out "code thingy," and lo and behold, "code" was enough!

	Just out of curiosity, I scanned the QR Code on my phone bar code scanner, it came up with a link back to this specific quiz. I thought that was amazing attention to detail for a quiz.

	Could you accept "naughts and crosses" for tic tac toe?

	WeaselKing1000:	Feb 22nd, 2013 at 07:36 GMT		22 points
	@jakespooky It already accepts the correct spelling: 'noughts and crosses'.

	Fun quiz, I'm surprised so few people got the QR code! Also, I'm sure they're very popular in the US, but I had never heard of a s'more before...

	I had no idea what a QR code was actually called until now. I tried "bar code", and when that didn't work, "smartphone scan thingy".

	hellofromUK:	Feb 22nd, 2013 at 09:29 GMT		11 points
	If you're accepting 'code' then you should definitely accept 'barcode', as a QR code is a type of barcode, which in turn is a type of code.

	DanielMunster:	Feb 22nd, 2013 at 10:10 GMT		12 points
	post-it should be accepted, i've never said sticky note in my life...

	Sanky:	Feb 22nd, 2013 at 10:20 GMT		2 points
	Got QR code, missed brownie. Why, oh why?

	Floppy discs are not square, they are 8.9cm by 9.3cm. Sorry to be pedantic

	gizmocraig:	Feb 22nd, 2013 at 10:45 GMT		26 points
	i'm from the U.K. so that may be the reason, but wtf is a s'more

	KarenNfld:	Feb 22nd, 2013 at 10:50 GMT		6 points
	Why is "TILE" not accepted but "SCRABBLE TILE" is?

	EuphrasieF:	Feb 22nd, 2013 at 10:58 GMT		11 points
	Can't you accept "post-it"? for r3col2?

	cantdeesighed:	Feb 22nd, 2013 at 11:02 GMT		6 points
	gizmocraig: a s'more is a toasted marshmallow and bit of chocolate smushed between two graham cracker squares. Yum!
