	Niger and Nigeria have the same consecutive letters

	Fusty:	Dec 23rd, 2012 at 07:55 GMT		4 points
	Algeria's clue states that All Mediterranean countries have been visited. Morocco is next to the Mediterranean, so is Libya, so why are they both non-visited.

	Zak6009:	Dec 23rd, 2012 at 12:26 GMT		5 points
	^This. Also I was gonna ask to clarify what "same consecutive letters" means. Same sequence of three? Sure many countries have that shared somewhere. 4? 5 a la Nigers? 6 a la Guineas? All of the above?

	Treverbeast454:	Dec 23rd, 2012 at 13:36 GMT		7 points
	@beast9617 and Zak6009, same consecutive letters is having double letters in a row, for example Russia with the two 's', @Fusty, I am really sorry about that, Algeria's clue was supposed to say 'have not been visited'. It is fixed now.

	Zak6009:	Dec 23rd, 2012 at 18:48 GMT		6 points
	Ah... thanks for clearing that up. Can you fix that clue to simply say "double letters"... I would have never got that without thinking a little first. Otherwise, nice quiz! I shall attempt it later when I get a chance (was waiting before for those two things to be fixed/explained.

	Lindsay:	Dec 23rd, 2012 at 19:53 GMT		1 point
	Definitely need to clarify that same consecutive letters means double letters - it tripped me up on Mauritius and Mauritania

	Treverbeast454:	Dec 23rd, 2012 at 20:53 GMT		5 points
	I put an asterisk on Equatorial Guinea's clue to clarify that. The asterisk explains it and can be found in the game notes.

	Alright, just tried again... bam, another problem. SieRRa Leone has a double letter and it's visited. I say change the clue to "all countries with double-letters but one are non-visited." You won't have to change anything else and it's still solvable since you have Egypt telling you its status.

	Zak6009:	Dec 23rd, 2012 at 22:32 GMT		5 points
	And also, everyone knows what a double letter is, you don't need to explain. But you should also not word the clue saying "SAME double letters" it makes it sound like only countries where their double-letter is the same letter, but they are all different (C, L, R, O, S). Word it the way I did above.

	Treverbeast454:	Dec 23rd, 2012 at 22:58 GMT		12 points
	@briskt, it's all the African countries in the 2010 World Cup, you didn't visit any of them, except the country that hosted the World Cup. @Zak6009, I am really sorry about that, and once again I corrected Equatorial Guinea's clue. If one more mistake comes up, I'm really Ghana lose it.

	Zak6009:	Dec 23rd, 2012 at 23:57 GMT		6 points
	claps Now we're talking! Fun quiz, and congrats on making the first logic puzzle on Sporcle with as many as 55 squares! Didn't expect every country in Africa would be here, but sure enough they were. One last teeny little nitpick... I was confused at first with the way Mauritius's clue was worded, at first I thought you were talking about all of Algeria and Mali's bordering countries together, some of which I already marked at the end... it hit me what you REALLY meant, the second I was about to comment. Maybe stick the word "both" in there... no big deal though. Bring on the Asia and Europe quizzes!

	Really nice only one thing, when i typed V at Uganda it didn't do anything so i knew it was non visited lol

	Western Sahara isn't a sovereign country.

	hazelorb:	Dec 24th, 2012 at 12:13 GMT		7 points
	I didn't even use the double letters clues... I found this one had a lot of unused clues. The vowels one really sped things up.

	ChileNoseJam:	Dec 24th, 2012 at 13:08 GMT		5 points
	The Mozambique clue: "There are more non-visited in the fourth column" - more than what?

	Zak6009:	Dec 24th, 2012 at 14:44 GMT		5 points
	@ChileNoseJam - the way I understood it was "more than there are visited in the fourth column", i.e. at least 6. @Slabber, pretty sure he knows that and it was just included to have an even 11x5 grid. It gets ticked off early anyway so luckily we don't have to worry about whether to count it or not.

	jjjoseph:	Dec 24th, 2012 at 15:29 GMT		2 points
	Regarding the "same double letters" rule: Sierra Leone is visited, violating that rule

	Treverbeast454:	Dec 24th, 2012 at 17:22 GMT		6 points
	@jjjoseph, yes but in the clue it says "(except one)" and once you can find that Sierra Leone is visited, then follow the double letters clue. @Zak6009 and ChileNoseJam, it is supposed to be 'more than visited' , and I added that on. @Zak6009 and Slabber, yes I included Western Sahara just to put it on a 11x5 grid. Just like I included Greenland on my North America Logic Puzzle.

	I'm sure I would enjoy this quiz if I had a big-screen computer, but on my 13" laptop I'm afraid it's impossible!

	NotYou:	Dec 25th, 2012 at 18:57 GMT		2 points
	I have Nigeria, Gabon, Mozambique, Benin, Namibia, Chad, Botswana, Lesotho, Mali, Sudan, Swaziland, and Togo, and I'm not sure how to progress. I've used up the clues from Nigeria and Botswana. Namibia's clue + Benin's clue gave me Sudan, but at this point I don't see how to decide whether Libya is non-visited or my current location (since "current" doesn't count as visited). I don't see how I have enough information for any of the other clues to be useful yet. What am I missing?

	Treverbeast454:	Dec 25th, 2012 at 19:04 GMT		3 points
	@NotYou, For Namibia's clue, Egypt also borders Libya.

	Slabber:	Dec 26th, 2012 at 04:16 GMT		1 point
	@mikeindex: press ctrl and + or - for zoom in and out.

	NotYou:	Dec 26th, 2012 at 23:34 GMT		3 points
	@Treverbeast454, thanks for clarifying that the current country does not count as non-visited in the instructions (both on this and your NA and SA quizzes). That was what was causing me to be stuck before - I knew that Egypt bordered Libya, but didn't think I could mark it because I wasn't sure if it was truly non-visited or the current country (I marked Sudan only because I also knew that the current country didn't have a coastline on the Red Sea). Now that I understand how to classify the current country, I mostly enjoyed it. If it's possible, it'd be nice to have more time since it's such a large puzzle (although I think that 20 minutes might be the max time allowable). @Slabber, zooming is only so helpful. Not even half the puzzle fits on my little laptop screen, and if I zoomed enough for the whole - or even most - of the puzzle to fit, I wouldn't be able to read the words.

	@Slabber - by the time I've zoomed out far enough to see the whole grid I can't read the writing.

	Ghana is supposed to be adjacent to two non-visited countries, but it's not...

	Triffid:	Dec 31st, 2012 at 16:13 GMT		6 points
	What on earth is the relevance of the status of Western Sahara in a logic puzzle? Great puzzle and I'm glad all the countries were included.

	NYYanks:	Jan 8th, 2013 at 02:00 GMT		5 points
	Wow this is big! Good puzzle

	MJSchooley:	Jan 14th, 2013 at 22:22 GMT		3 points
	Two minor errors I'd like to point out. 1: "Djibouti" is spelled incorrectly. 2: Kenya's clue has the word "the" repeated.

	LisaSimpsonOH:	Jan 29th, 2013 at 14:22 GMT		16 points
	Too much scrolling required.

	beforever:	Jan 29th, 2013 at 15:49 GMT		5 points
	Love it. I love how it's simple, yet still demands some geographical knowledge and plenty of logic. One thing I would say, though - you just wait 'til those lemurs make it to the mainland one day. That'll mess everything up. :P

	Gitters:	Jan 29th, 2013 at 15:51 GMT		0 points
	Botswana's clue says that Senegal is adjacent to visited countries. However, Guinea is "not visited" yet it is adjacent to Senegal. What am I missing?

	buis_golalas:	Jan 29th, 2013 at 16:35 GMT		2 points
	Both Egypt and The Gambia's clues give you the direct answer to Sierra Leone's status. Is that necessary? It just makes one clue useless...

	Chocolatl:	Jan 29th, 2013 at 17:27 GMT		8 points
	lostfan and Gitters--"Adjacent" means next to that country in the puzzle, not necessarily on the map. "Bordering" means next to that country on the map, not necessarily in the puzzle.

	I spent so much time scrolling that I couldn't possibly finish. Also, there are a lot of places where you say "not visited" when you mean "non-visited." I got really stuck early on because they should not be the same thing. "Not visited" should logically include your current country, but you constantly use it as if it doesn't.

	alastor:	Jan 29th, 2013 at 23:37 GMT		5 points
	There's a double "the" in Malawi's clue. In Botswana's clue it would be helpful if you said "adjacent ONLY to visited", otherwise it's a useless clue.

	Scroll down... scroll up... scroll down... scroll up...scr... TIME'S UP!

	skaara:	Jan 30th, 2013 at 11:37 GMT		3 points
	ari18@: How can you not have visited your current country? If you're in a country you have visited it. Excellent quiz by the way. Yeah it is big and yeah a lot of scrolling is needed but it is worth it. I made it through the second time after running out of time the first. Slightly more time (about 25 minutes) would have been ideal but then again that is Sporcle's fault. Five globes!
