The instructions are grammatically wrong. Maybe use "Can you name the Countries of the world spelled without using any of the letters in SPORCLE?"

Good quiz, but really hard. I would put the answers in alphabetical order. It would still be hard but would give something to latch on to when racking your brain.

I spent almost a full minute screaming at the scream for it to accept Rwanda. Oops! Did manage 4 though. Wicked quiz. Certainly had me thinking.

I'd imagine there are even more countries without Sporcle, as most of the world doesn't even have computers!

...? what is this asking you to do? Name the countries that do not HAVE sporcle, or name the countries of the world without the letters S,P,O,R,C,L and E?

I'm going to hunt down whoever came up with this deliciously wicked quiz. Only got 11/13 and still feel like I just won the World Series. Time was fair. Thumbs up.

" Can you name the countries of the world spelled without using any of the letters S, P, O, R, C, L, or E? " What does that have to do with countries that may or may not have access to computers?

Wow its interesting how this list, even though it was just about letters, also kind of corresponded with not having computers and therefore Sporcle, given that most of the countries here would be considered developing or third world countries. Coincidence?

moviedynamic, i understand what your saying, youre not talking about the quiz, but rather a whole new topic of many countries, or at least, most people in many countries dont have computers, so they cannot access sporcle, not talking about the quiz

raymond837: This is because the vast majority of countries are "developing". The IMF lists around 155.

Yeah you're true, Detektor. And I guess I sort of overlooked Taiwan, India, Kuwait, which aren't third world...so 10/13 isn't that impressive of a statistic. I guess its just strange that there's not a single European country on there, for example. Not that all of Europe is developed, by any means. But still.

p.s. if you liked this quiz, I also made a couple other similar SPORCLE-themed ones in my contributed games section (at least one of them much easier :)
