	This is really messed up. I typed "and" for anderson and about 70 directors came up. you might wanna fix that. also, some require last names and some dont... sometimes for the same person- like "tarantino" works for 1994, but you have to type "quentin tarantino" for 2009 to show up. So good idea, but that stuff needs a lot of work

	Obviously the game had some bugs, which weren't my fault. So I went through one by one and inserted the last names as alternate answers rather than use the sporcle function that accepted last names, and that seems to have worked.

	Milos Forman won in 1984 for Amadeus, didn't he?

	johnlk:	May 1st, 2010 at 03:26 GMT	1 point
	Ah, he is on there with the diacritic in his first name, but neither "Forman" nor "Milos Forman" worked. Irritating.

	Typing Spielberg does not give credit for all of his answers

	Looks like a lot of the previously mentioned errors have been fixed. One note, though: I typed in "petersen" for Wolfgang Petersen and it didn't accept it. However, when I typed in "peterson," it accepted it and came up as "petersen." That may be a glitch on Sporcle's end; if so, you may want to alert them.
