| Oh no. I fell into the trap you set with Group A. I thought there was a mistake with the quiz but it was my mistake. Great quiz, 5 globes. |

| This is great. If you cut the time back by about 2 minutes, it will be perfect! |

| @ambition: I did the same thing! Having played the first quiz, I thought that BRF had changed it up a bit so we had to unscramble the hidden place this time as well. I kept wondering why it wasn't working! |

| I don't think you've ever made a quiz I didn't like! Just one small thing, which doesn't really matter: any reason why on these quizzes you arranged them so the diagonals read upwards rather than downwards, which would be more instinctive to most people? |

| Thanks everyone. @tjvhammer: I have completely plagiarized your comment to add a bonus for Tokyo, thanks. @WyvernSabres: The idea behind that was to not have people figure out the hidden place right away if possible and I think it's likely less obvious in most cases if you have the end of the word rather than the beginning (assuming you work your way through the group from top to bottom). |

| You cunning fox: I'd never have come up with that idea! No wonder you're such an expert puzzle-setter. |

| Wow, Tempe came out of nowhere. Is it famous for something in America? |

| Great Quiz, not knowing whether you're looking for a country, state, or capital makes it interesting! |

| This is a clever idea and well-executed. They're all familiar place names, yet some of the anagrams are counterintuitive, which is all the more surprising because of the constraint that they were each five letters long. Is it too soon to hope for a six-letter sequel? |

| Only on Sporcle would Qatar be the most guessed answer. |

| I thought the time might be tight given my slow typing skill, but I managed with plenty of time left. I also like the mix-up of countries/capitals/states/random cities. It keeps the player from settling into a groove. |

| All except Tempe and Boise. Are these places? |

| I agree that Tempe is a little random. Much less well known than the other non-capital cities here (Lagos and Kyoto). If you wanted to change it, you could use "Maine" instead of "Tempe" and substitute "Haiti" where you are currently using "Maine."
@Jonny_Segment: Boise is the capital of Idaho. Tempe is a city in Arizona. |

| No, it doesn't need more time! I finished with over 2 minutes left and I'm not a fast typer. That's not to brag, but just to say there is ample time to complete the quiz (if you know your geography). |

| instead of kyoto i typed in tokyo, I think of acronyms too much. also I think it would be funny to replace YANKE with KANYE and GOANT with TANGO |

| I love these quizzes cause you're having to think in terms of cities/countries, global/local (who would expect someone from Palau to know Boise??) :-) |
