	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.

	Fidelio:	Dec 17th, 2009 at 06:53 GMT	5 points
	It's too easy with the hints - you don't need to mention what country each city is in.

	what defines a skyscraper? how tall does it have to be?

	anAmatuer:	Jul 31st, 2010 at 17:57 GMT	1 point
	Accept "Canton" for Guangzhou please.

	I got the first five in a row(: Agreed with Fidelio./

	Bwahahah. Singapore is so easy!

	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.

	Made the changes. Thanks for the comments.

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

	arcad:	Aug 1st, 2010 at 02:16 GMT	1 point
	good quiz, but I am surprised that Los Angeles is not even on the list.

	chriskotx:	Aug 1st, 2010 at 03:05 GMT	1 point
	I'm surprised about L.A. too....and Dallas.

	wtncffts:	Aug 1st, 2010 at 04:28 GMT	1 point
	It would be nice if the quiz maker could update the list.

	dlte:	Aug 1st, 2010 at 09:09 GMT	1 point
	these are out of date.

	Rubashov:	Aug 1st, 2010 at 19:18 GMT	1 point
	updated

	Pelmert:	Aug 1st, 2010 at 20:10 GMT	2 points
	maybe accept Shenzhen as well, seems to be a normal way to spell it

	isildur:	Aug 2nd, 2010 at 14:38 GMT	1 point
	Seconding Pelmert. Typing "shen" into google gives phrases beginning "shenzhen" as suggestions. Really Shenzhen should be the answer. Good quiz though.

	coulraphobic123:	Aug 3rd, 2010 at 18:21 GMT	1 point
	Shenzhen is the correct spelling.

	ok is hong kong a city or isn't it?

	Melchett:	Aug 4th, 2010 at 12:34 GMT	1 point
	shenzhen is spelt wrong

	Rooster:	Aug 4th, 2010 at 19:30 GMT	2 points

	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.
