you should accept Saint Kitts and Sao Tome and not have to type all of it with only a minute to play since you accept Saint Vincent. Good game though!

I have never played a quiz and seen Sao Tome be accepted, and rarely is just St Kitts accepted... St Vincent on the other hand is commonly accepted just as it is. But I will accept St Kitts

So, how does Sporcle plan on implementing South Sudan into all its old countries games?

I missed Spain and Sudan, but I somehow managed to get Sao Tome and Principe as well as Saint Kitts and Nevis. Magic, I guess.

STUPID quiz. Even with a cheat sheet, the puzzle would have been virtually impossible to finish in time. Next, you might as well have a quiz to type A thru Z in 5 seconds.

26 answers to be typed in 60 seconds. Less than 2.5 seconds per answer. even if I had all of the answers in front of me I would not be able to do this

Clearly, I too am damaged by sporcling too much. I did have Solomon Islands, Sao Tome and Principe and all of the Caribbean. Alas, Spain and South Africa apparently are unknowable ;)

For everyone complaining about the lack of time, do you not see the words "60 Second Blitz"? That's kind of the point...

Scotland is a country. Just because it is part of Great Britain doesn't make it any less so.

I will edit any of my quizzes to make sure that they include Sudan and South Sudan, their capitals etc.

Polo, Scotland is where it always is. Just north of the Cheviot Hills and Hadrian's Wall. However, as it's not a nation in it's own right, and actually part of the U.K. it does not appear on this quiz.

So i type in St. Kitts and Nevis and other countries and a I look up and it hasn't taken any of them because it stopped at St. Kitts. I've got and Nevis SeychellesSudan just sitting there. I lost a good 15 seconds there.

@dfoliver - Yeah sorry... Before it was published, someone asked for St Kitts or Saint Kitts to be accepted. Other short cuts (although not all useful in this quiz) are: St Vincent for St Vincent and the Grenadines, DRC for Democratic Republic of Congo, CAR for Central African Republic, UK, USA, UAE

@RobPro: No problems, those other abbreviations (DRC, CAR, UAE, USA, UK) seem pretty standard in other quizzes, but this is really the first I have seen just St. Kitts by itself accepted.

Good game, but much harder than I expected. I got all the obvious ones though, except for South Africa.

As already answered in comments before being published, I have never seen Sao Tome and Principe be shortened like that in any other quiz so it wont be shortened here, sorry

How is Swaziland the first thing that comes to mind, but Sweden and Switzerland are not thought of.... maybe I'm spending too much time in Africa quizzes, and not enough in Europe??
