	I thought this would be a fairly easy quiz... and then I noticed that my timer was at 3 minutes and ticking.

	yankeespurs101:	Aug 5th, 2011 at 04:19 GMT		18 points
	Yeah I didn't notice the timer at all. I just thought this was a ripoff of the countries of the world quiz.

	This is WAY too short. I felt like I was tearing through and I only got about 110. Other than that. Kind of a cool quiz.

	@davie91 (archived comment): as far as I know, the constitution of Côte d'Ivoire specifies that the name of the country is Côte d'Ivoire and that it can't be translated into other languages. Of course there is no way to enforce that article, so in Spanish everybody says Costa de Marfil, in Italian Costa d'Avorio, in German Elfenbeinküste, etc., without any risk of being punished for doing so.

	How is it that Chile and China don't have the same % guessed right?

	aznemesis:	Aug 5th, 2011 at 04:50 GMT		29 points
	Norway and North Korea don't have the same %, either. In fact, right now, it's an even wider gap between the two than between Chile and China.

	nice quiz. I got countries I ordinarily can't because I can't spell them! Agree that a couple extra minutes would improve it a lot.

	Helixer:	Aug 5th, 2011 at 05:05 GMT		13 points
	There are several countries that have the same first three letters but very different percentages (e.g. Saint Vincent and the Grenadines and Saint Kitts and Nevis). How does that happen??

	Bobman1:	Aug 5th, 2011 at 05:12 GMT		21 points
	I may be overthinking this, but what's the point? It's essentially a name all the countries in the world without speling issues, right? Come to think of it, that's not a bad hook.... bit dull, though, but it means I wasted all that time memorizing krygzyz-- I mean kigrgzst-- ah, kurgyzyrgsta--.... Okay, forget it.

	drewski3420:	Aug 5th, 2011 at 05:13 GMT		17 points
	@Helixer and @MasterPenguin: probably has to do with alternates that the quiz accepts, for example both STV and SAI for Saint Vincent. China, dunno, maybe People's Republic

	NathanW197:	Aug 5th, 2011 at 05:13 GMT		20 points
	Well, I'm happy with 164, but I'm really not sure how even 0.3% of people got all of them in that time limit.

	kmac804:	Aug 5th, 2011 at 05:28 GMT		24 points
	need more time!

	chambles91:	Aug 5th, 2011 at 05:50 GMT		12 points
	great idea, but not nearly enough time. really not conceivable for anyone to get all the countries so quickly

	aznspwn88:	Aug 5th, 2011 at 05:51 GMT		-3 points
	how on earth is there a 1% difference between the U.S. and U.K.? They both have the same first three letters...

	Volante:	Aug 5th, 2011 at 05:58 GMT		3 points
	I like the time; this doesn't have the feel of a game you should beat. It's like Tetris: get a little better each time.
