What's your definition of skyscraper? Looks like your source gives one, and you should probably include that here.

marpocky: I think most people know what a skyscraper is - it's not easily confused with say, a house.

It's too easy with the hints - you don't need to mention what country each city is in.

would it matter if we were told how many meters, or floors a skyscraper had? would we get any different number correct or incorrect? would you guess des moines if a skyscraper was defined as 66 instead of 67 floors? come on, don't be so picky.

wow, Europe really doesn't do skyscrapers... must be a nightmare if you're suicidal and looking for an easy way out.

Seconding Pelmert. Typing "shen" into google gives phrases beginning "shenzhen" as suggestions. Really Shenzhen should be the answer. Good quiz though.

Hey you stole my idea Rubashov! I was about to make the same kind of game, but then you stole it! Well at least I've been at your Source. Everything's correct. Good quiz, but you are such a robber to me.
