	Nice idea but badly let down by a few spelling mistakes and a lack of alternative answers.

	bfmonkey7:	Nov 8th, 2009 at 13:59 GMT		2 points
	which ones need fixing and leave alternative answers that you want

	mwmw127ny:	Nov 8th, 2009 at 14:18 GMT		5 points
	Misspelled: "Tajikstan" (corr: Tajikistan), "Sierre Leone" (corr: Sierra Leone), "Guniea-Bissau" (corr: Guinea-Bissau). Also, accept just "Micronesia" for "Federated States of Micronesia."

	Thanks. All fixed/added

	Kicking222:	Nov 8th, 2009 at 14:57 GMT		6 points
	Great quiz. I would personally add a minute or two, but that's just me. I also completely despise the "jump to a random question" option- as opposed to just going to the next unanswered question- but again, that's personal opinion. Regardless, this was a lot of fun.

	Majesteetti:	Nov 8th, 2009 at 17:44 GMT		3 points
	Agree with Kicking222, a minute or two more would be nice. Also, when "Guam" is the answer, I wonder why it doesn´t approve "Guam". Also the "saints" should have the alternative spelling of St. xxx.

	MikeSang:	Nov 8th, 2009 at 20:04 GMT		4 points
	AHO should have an asterisk. Also, I believe it's GBR, not GRB. Otherwise, great quiz

	sbelkoski:	Nov 8th, 2009 at 20:59 GMT		3 points
	UAE should accept UAE. Please don't make us waste time spelling it out. Republic of the Congo should probably accept Rep Congo since most quizzes do.

	RS89:	Nov 11th, 2009 at 00:33 GMT		2 points
	CAR should be accepted for Central Africa Republic.

	As a Brit I am appalled at how long it took me to recognise GBR (even going so far as to wonder whether Gibraltor was the answer). Anyhow was fun and the few issues I think have already been pointed out.

	Karma:	Nov 14th, 2009 at 23:16 GMT		3 points
	Yeah with random answer jump it seemed to just get stuck doing a loop of the same 20-30 countries going in order would be so much better.

	Top marks for the time it must have taken to compile!

	thebirdgirl:	Jan 2nd, 2010 at 17:26 GMT		2 points
	Really fun quiz (it seems most of the bugs were fixed by the time I took it, which was convenient). Though I think making it a round 20 minutes would be ideal. Thanks for making this quiz!

	shakescene:	Jan 27th, 2010 at 01:05 GMT		2 points
	you can randomize the questions but leave the answers in alphabetical order (of abbreviation). Also please accept "U.S. Virgin Islands"; after answering "British Virgin Islands", I had no idea that "Virgin Islands" means US Virgin Is. (it shouldn't).

	gowhere:	Apr 15th, 2010 at 13:51 GMT		1 point
	I agree with shakescene. There was a point when I had come up with some answers to items I had missed in the initial go around, but the random answer jump wouldn't go back to them. I had to hunt through the quiz, trying to find the code so I could click on it to enter the answer. By putting the codes in alpha order, it allows the quiz taker to readily demonstrate their knowledge (which after all is the point of the whole thing), rather than demonstrate how quickly they can look through two hundred codes to find the one they want to answer. That said, I do like the idea of translating the olympic codes into real countries. Well done!

	Fun quiz - great way to pass a few minutes. This should be published!
