You may want to include a comment that a state can be counted twice if it forms two separate borders of the US. Well I guess I just did.

Yeah, that's the tricky part. Great quiz.

I think you also need to say that Lake Michigan doesn't count (just say it goes along the ocean borders and international borders). I lost some time there.

On second thought, that won't work either. Going along the international border you would skip from Minnesota directly to Michigan because Wisconsin borders the part of Lake Superior that is entirely within the U.S. So you either need to include the states along Lake Michigan or else exclude Wisconsin to be consistent.

Given the number who got them all right, you might want to decrease the time.

the time needs to be increased due to the lack of detail of the question. (Answering same state twice)

Shouldn't Maryland and Virginia repeat once, due to the Delmarva Peninsula?

Not a big fan of the two repeats in this one.....
