	To the lady or gentleman who always gives me a '1' immediately upon release of a quiz: while I understand your desire to correct my feeble attempts, I would appreciate an accompanying comment to aid me in bettering my future efforts. Regards, bamachile.

	Don't make wrong answers end the quiz.

	bamachile:	Aug 24th, 2011 at 20:12 GMT	3 points
	@metagloria: thanks for the response. I'll watch the comments - if it looks like fellow Sporclers don't want that option, I'll remove it. Again, thank you for speaking up.

	Hejman:	Aug 24th, 2011 at 21:29 GMT	8 points
	I'd have to agree. I'm not sure why it would be necessary to set it that way. It would be a much more enjoyable experience to be able to continue to guess through the list even if I get one wrong.

	bamachile:	Aug 25th, 2011 at 12:26 GMT	5 points
	I bow to the wishes of the Sporcling masses. Please continue with the quiz, even if you get one wrong. Or two, even. :)

	Hejman:	Aug 25th, 2011 at 16:48 GMT	6 points
	I hope you won't mind one more suggestion, bamachile. Why not display the correct answer when the quiz taker gets one wrong? It'll still show up in red. So for a question whose answer was Sweden, your wrong answer (bonus/ee) line would say Sweden/Switzerland in the middle column. Switzerland would trigger the wrong answer, but Sweden would appear in red.

	I don't mind at all. As a man of limited mental resources, I need all the suggestions I can get. I'll work on the wrong answer display - I had honestly never thought of that approach.

	Given the title, I can’t help wondering: nothing for Swaziland? :-P Lovely quiz!

	nightfloat:	Aug 26th, 2011 at 10:27 GMT	3 points
	Fun!! :)

	NotYou:	Aug 26th, 2011 at 12:50 GMT	6 points
	I'm glad you changed it so that wrong answers don't end the quiz, it's much more fun this way, and I appreciate that the correct answer displays when we get one wrong. I always find it really confusing when the wrong answer I just typed is still displayed. Also, I love your "etc." for Pippi Longstocking!

	bamachile:	Aug 26th, 2011 at 13:00 GMT	6 points
	@NotYou: Thanks, always glad to oblige. I find it amazing that Pippi Longstocking is almost twice as popular as Ursula Andress. Oh well, who can account for taste, right? @Hejman: Thanks for the Pick!

	You're welcome, bamachile. It's always frustrating when someone makes a good quiz but then ignores the feedback. Where someone watches their feedback, responds quickly to it and uses it to improve their quiz, well that's deserving of an Editor's Pick!

	i liked it, it was surprisingly hard, especially in the 2nd columm

	1/10 still associate vikings with Switzerland..

	ILoveSBSP:	Sep 4th, 2011 at 03:47 GMT	1 point
	There is no Sweden without IKEA.

	Zapata:	Dec 14th, 2011 at 07:50 GMT	1 point
	There is a bug here. I get 19 out of 20 correct each time, even though I answer all correctly. One time Einstein is said to be Swedish (he's not), the next time Vikings are said to be Swiss (they're not).
