	Hey guys, you may have noticed that this is in Geography, and I'm not sure if that is the correct place to insert this game, if you have any idea if this should go into History or something like that, please tell me and I'll try to adjust it, hope you like the game, thanks!

	good quiz, but WAY too much time

	nhrafan:	Nov 29th, 2009 at 20:18 GMT		7 points
	yeah, this should be 2, maybe 3 minutes tops

	MK18:	Nov 29th, 2009 at 20:25 GMT		8 points
	good game but too much time... it doesn't even take that long to guess every state! i would make it 3 minutes. that way it's a challenge.

	Way too much time. I can do every state in the union in two minutes; nobody needs ten to do this.

	Man, the South really is just an entire different country in some ways...

	Very southern US centric- from Nevada and California to Florida and North Carolina.

	Why is rape so common in Alaska? Is bear rape included in these stats?

	Well, Mr. Flixuk is not entirely wrong. Not to sound racist (My school is half-black), but whites make up a minority of the criminal world in the South. Especially when you look at urban areas like New Orleans and Atlanta, where the black population is incredibly high. Not that whites are never guilty, though. The rural and suburban parts of the South, no matter what the racial proportions are, are usually nicer and more crime-free than urban locales with more crowding and low-quality housing.

	I would've thought Boston Chicago and New York City would've pushed their states higher on the list, guess not...

	TD3000:	Jul 5th, 2010 at 19:03 GMT		5 points
	My home state of Michigan is pretty high on this list as a non-southern state. I read yesterday that it's also the 10th-fattest state, the only non-southern state in the top 10. Take the economy into account as well and unfortunately, Michigan really sticks out like a sore thumb near the top of the U.S. map.

	You spelled motor wrong for Nevada.

	haha New Jersey isn't there, I'm proud to live here now, that'll pass when I go back to Newark.

	4 minutes is too much time, usually quizzes that require only naming some of the states use 2 minutes, which works great. Otherwise, you can simply name every state in the 4 minute time limit.

	Las vegas must do a lot for Nevada's crime rates.

	Mortor Vehicle theft? is that like when someone steals Fred Flintstone's car?

	paddy26:	Jul 6th, 2010 at 02:12 GMT		12 points
	I accidentally typed Detroit as my first guess.

	I figured that some states had a bigger robbery problem than Delaware. They must all happen in Wilmington.

	I jokingly entered Alaska.. How can rape be so high in Alaska? There's less than 700,000 people living there, which is 48th in the country. You would think New York or Michigan would be higher.

	Rape is a gigantic problem in the Inuit/native communities of Alaska. Basically native alaskans, as a group, have terrible problems with alcoholism, and when you have drunk people, sexual assaults happen. Sorry if this isn't PC, just answering the question.

	dfishman:	Jul 7th, 2010 at 10:27 GMT		5 points
	@ nms9807 - almost certainly, the rankings are based on some sort of crimes per capita, rather than total crimes committed.

	Morbo:	Jul 8th, 2010 at 20:56 GMT		5 points
	So if you're a solider with a mortor (or a mortar), or just a driver with a mortor vehicle, stay out of Nevada. You might get robbed or, worse, mortored ... err, murdered.

	flixuk and emporer ziggy are acutally correct

	One does not simply walk into Mortor, Nevada.

	i thought for sure that New York or more northern states would be on there. I guess they have their security rehearsed to the nines because of all the people....

	please change moRtor to MOTOR!

	Wow, Mississippi is not on a "worst of" quiz? Either they're terrible at reporting crimes or this is a major sign of progress!

	ostemanden:	Jan 5th, 2013 at 02:12 GMT		0 points
	Alaska is not the 7th most dangerous state in the US, that for sure!
