	I know them. I just couldn't type them in time :(

	I missed it by literally one letter - I had all of Suriname typed except the 'e'. D'oh!

	I try to do it methodically, like North America, Central, South, islands... but I end up just jumping erratically all over the place

	I suck at these blitzes because I only have 50 seconds to work with. Once the timer turns red my brain always freezes up.

I love these blitzes. This has to be the best I've ever done on one. That said, the ones I missed were some of the ones that most of the people got. :-(

	30/35. I just went through the entire first verse of the Animaniacs "Nations of the World" song. Otherwise I would have been lucky to get half that.

	United States, Canada, Mexico, Panama, Haiti, Jamaica, Peru...if you know the rest of the first verse, see if you can spell it as quick as you can sing it in your head. ;)

	Great quiz - amazed anyone can type them all in 60 secs, let alone actually know them all!

	My ham-handed typing always does me in on these blitzes! :(

	Yes I can.

	I got 100% in just five seconds and I typed all of the countries of Europe first just to warm up!

	It has to be a perfect storm of fast typing/knowledge/methodical approach, but it's achievable. One of the rare 60 sec. blitzes whose time constraints are spot on.

	This is the most annoying type of Sporcle quiz; even if I was sitting there with a list of countries, I am not capable of typing them in in 60 seconds. So it becomes a typing test, not a knowledge test.

	@WackyZacky - Can you please allow the use of an ampersand? I ran out of time with three left, because I had to correct two countries that disallowed the usage of the ampersand. Otherwise, great quiz.

	Gah. Squeaked through with one second to spare. It was like James Bond disarming a bomb. Would have been quicker if I hadn't typed "USA," had it accept "US" but keep the "A" for the next clue, then wonder for a couple seconds why it wasn't accepting "Amexico."

	@Sterlingbond: Central America is part of North America.

	Can't do better than 32/35... It's impossible! :D

	34/35. I'm sitting there thinking "Trinidad and Tobago...Trinidad and Tobago..." and then when I have five seconds left, I don't remember if I've typed it in or not and I don't have enough time to check over what I have typed in! Good quiz though, almost got it.

	And, why is that impossible? No problem for me. You should play more Sporcle! North America has 23 countries, South America has 12, etc. With enough practice, knowing the countries isn't the problem - it's more of a typing test. And that's why I love it!
