An extra minute or two might be a little fairer. Still, great quiz.

I like the short time personally. I like it when perfect scores are an accomplishment rather than the norm. No matter what the time is, this is a great quiz worthy of release now.

Amazing quiz. I would have loved more time to try to get more than the 9 I got, but I respect the challenge that the time limit introduces--maybe 1 more minute would be nice.

Great idea for a quiz. A couple of extra minutes might give people (well, me) a chance though.

Just a minute more please to enjoy this quiz. My enthusiasm was stealth bomber speed, unfortunately my brain speed was more akin to the Wright brothers!

Brilliant quiz. Nominated. Don't know if the time has been upped - I had 5 mins - but I thought it was ok ... another minute might have let me get the 2 I missed but there is no guarantee as I'd already thought of one in each pair and dismissed them as not having any alliterative neighbours ...

@gorman03: It's already there. Maybe you made a spelling mistake or something.

Sporcle has done more to raise awareness of the importance of understanding African geography than the American educational system has done in its entire history.

I like this quiz, but it's hard. I really needed more time. For everybody who liked it to: try to take it to the next level with the alliterative bordering capitals! http://www.sporcle.com/games/Merijn/Alliterative_Bordering_Capitals

Too african-centric. ^^ Just kidding. If the two Congo´s would get rid of their "Rep..." and rename Congo-East and -West or so, C would rule this quiz even more.

That was a lot harder than expected. And now, instead of just knowing how to spell Kyrgystan, we actually have to relate it to actual geography! =)
