	Really inventive quiz. It turns out typing fractions under pressure isn't something I'm very good at.

	This game was directly inspired by enough's Historical Timeline quiz http://www.sporcle.com/games/enough/timelinematching which I highly recommend. Also, for anyone so inclined there is a sequel in my contributed games which can be found by clicking on my name.

	@Stat1ngup: Your comment really confuses me. You say it's too easy yet you admit you had to guess and your stats show that you finished with 2 seconds to spare. Also, wouldn't focusing on one subject instead of a variety make it even easier?

@BritishRebel: You are supposed to rank each list in the specified order.

	This is a really cool idea for a quiz. But perhaps making it so that you have to answer them in order might make it a bit more challenging? Just my two cents. Happy St. Paddy's day to everyone.

	I spent 30 seconds trying to get Cuba to go in as the first answer. Directions should be read before starting the quiz.

	maybe better if you make them answer in order or shorten the time. Now you can get 100% by trial and error

	Pretty proud over my chronical historic skills, got them all in order on the first try. That said, I have absolutely nothing to be proud of when it comes to fractions and elements!

	Seriously, I have no idea what to type without looking at the comments. I tried typing "1", try typing "first", tried that for every item on these lists and nothing went. "Click any empty bet or raise to answer for that location" What does this mean?

	ClamBuckets: At first I thought you were making a joke about that 'empty bet or raise...' thing, but then I saw you were right. I don't understand that at all, but above each column it gives pretty clear instructions.

	It's sad when the hardest part of a quiz is figuring out how to answer.

	betraisefold:	Mar 17th, 2011 at 13:36 GMT	3 points
	Sorry for the confusion everyone - I have added instructions. @ClamBuckets, climber_v12: I have a habit of using bet, raise and fold as the hint/answer headings on grouped quizzes, however this time I forgot that that can cause problems on quizzes that requires answers in order.

	1 second to spare!!

	@betraisefold: Oh, I get it. I had a strong suspicion that you were talking about poker, but I didn't want to put that on Sporcle at the time.

	I guessed on many and had 14 seconds to spare. Anyone who types quickly can do this without actually knowing the info. Maybe drop a minute off. Good idea though.

	betraisefold:	Mar 17th, 2011 at 16:55 GMT	8 points
	Given that 70% of people have not gotten them all I just can't believe thet it would be a good idea to shorten the time limit.

	yeah!!!! i got exactly half of course - being st patricks day i am probably a little drunk

	I don't do math, especially quickly

	Interesting that the stats suggest that most people are guessing the atomic numbers in order. I immediately clicked down at the bottom and tried Radon, because it's radioactive and all of the radioactive elements have high numbers. Similarly, figured platinum was high. Then I moved up to sort out the others.

	great idea for a quiz! thanks.

	Funny thing was I had the spelling right in front of me, and I still was misspelling Kyrgyzstan.

	@betraisefold--to repeat a comment from the archives: Changing the order from largest to smallest, then vice-versa, then changing back--was really confusing. I might have gotten them all, except I couldn't figure out why the fractions weren't working right. (Of course, then I read the title above it.]

	Too much time, I failed miserably at knowing the order, yet still had time to complete.

	Kyrgyzstan strikes again!
