	The Oscar Best Picture winner column was an AWESOME addition.

	jawa88:	Apr 27th, 2009 at 09:11 GMT	15 points
	I like how you get some of the answers by typing in others, I never would have even understood what the diamond column meant otherwise

	Meredith has a point .... Colombo is accepted as the capital in the Capitals of the World quiz on this site. @XY Unfortunately, that same quiz only accepts the Executive capital of South Africa: Pretoria.

	great quiz. loving the alphabet quizzes so far. countries threw me because i always refer to the country listed in french by it's english name and so do sports reporters in the world cup etc. i would always class it as beginning with 'i' not 'c'.

	aerodynamic:	Apr 27th, 2009 at 10:03 GMT	52 points
	this is and probably will remain the only quiz where central african republic is the most guessed thing

	Jaksiel:	Apr 27th, 2009 at 10:08 GMT	16 points
	I love these kinds of quizzes because they test so many different areas and it's hard to recall everything. Also, it has a good time limit. Keep these ones coming!

	beanheadmcginty:	Apr 27th, 2009 at 10:13 GMT	28 points
	How on earth did less people get "color" than "Colorado"? Typing the second gives you the first.

	I love this letter series, keep 'em coming :)

	@beanhead: I've found that sometimes, if you are a very fast typer, you can miss those "gimmes."

	dan snyder:	Apr 27th, 2009 at 10:16 GMT	5 points
	maybe they spelled it wrong, like they spell colarado, its wrong, so they go back, and put in an o for the a

	Niques:	Apr 27th, 2009 at 10:22 GMT	3 points
	I must have typed too fast as I didn't get colour. Completely blanked on the elements and missed all the obvious ones. Whoops.

	Niques:	Apr 27th, 2009 at 10:29 GMT	2 points
	Oh, and Colombo should be third from last rather than last on the list.

	jworkin:	Apr 27th, 2009 at 11:12 GMT	1 point
	My missed answers did not correspond to the missed answers shown in the results screen. Bug anyone?

	I didn't find time an issue for the last two alphabet quizzes, but didn't finish this one - must be having a slow morning (I forgot China...) Can't wait for the 'D' quiz! :)

	"Capable chaps can complete countdown criterion." love it :')

	Oh wow, I got all the Premier League clubs except... Chelsea. Sporcle does strange things to your brain.

	Lauro:	Apr 27th, 2009 at 13:37 GMT	4 points
	@Gokhan: Team names, not City...

	Zalx:	Apr 27th, 2009 at 13:46 GMT	2 points
	@jworkin - sometimes if you leave it too long after you finished the quiz to click on the most popular answer, it messes up the scores you had. i often find it when i read all of the comments first and there has been a lot of chat going on down here.

	Salmon:	Apr 27th, 2009 at 14:32 GMT	20 points
	Personally, I think the two Congos should be accepted as answers, not merely bonus answers. Lots of countries are officially named "Republic of...", "Kingdom of..." "Federated People's Free Decentralized Syndicate Fiefdom of..." etc. etc. To my knowledge, the main reason these two are usually called by their full names is simply to differentiate between the two. If you're going to exclude them, you pretty much have to exclude the People's Republic of China, the Republic of Chile and so on and so forth. Other than that, I enjoyed the quiz lots. Looking forward to the 'D' quiz. :)

	scootem:	Apr 27th, 2009 at 15:05 GMT	5 points
	That, and the fact that Um Bongo supposedly comes from there. Surely enough to promote to full answer status? Also, Why is Grenwich Mean Time three hours off on the posting times?

	EgoTrippin:	Apr 27th, 2009 at 15:26 GMT	-3 points
	does anyone else think its strange that th Central African Republic is by far the most named answer in this quiz? there were much easier answers then this.

	Lyn_Marie:	Apr 27th, 2009 at 15:33 GMT	6 points
	@Ego: maybe it fills in automatically by typing CAR? Just a guess... I always type the whole name out.

	LAD1992:	Apr 27th, 2009 at 15:43 GMT	-4 points
	This is hard :( Got 13... fail :(

	@Lyn_marie: I think you'd be correct there, I got Central African Republic whilst typing Caracas, and I'm guessing it happened to others with Carat Weight.

	chikka2:	Apr 27th, 2009 at 16:27 GMT	2 points
	Knowing the elements alphabetically helped to get 36. Super challenging mix. Can't wait for D.

	Tirion:	Apr 27th, 2009 at 16:44 GMT	4 points
	Very nice quiz, but the time limit is a little bit short. Got 37 and ran out of time before even thinking about movies and presidents. @Ajax I got through CARbon

	davidr:	Apr 27th, 2009 at 16:48 GMT	0 points
	@beanhead: As Dodge has pointed out, if you type quickly, you can get Colorado without getting color first. You can try it yourself by typing `colo' and then hitting R and A as quickly as you can.

	Arnee:	Apr 27th, 2009 at 16:50 GMT	3 points
	@scootem: I agree - "Um Bongo, Um Bongo, they drink it in the Congo" is surely enough evidence to get "Congo" to the heady heights of full answer status.

	TheJoker:	Apr 27th, 2009 at 16:53 GMT	3 points
	so much to think about, my head was going in so many different directions

	Jordan117:	Apr 27th, 2009 at 17:07 GMT	3 points
	Gah! How could I forget China? I guess it's harder when the word isn't a "C" followed by a vowel. I had trouble remembering "Cleveland" for the same reason...

	ted:	Apr 27th, 2009 at 17:41 GMT	4 points
	I was running through the Presidents in my head, and got so into making sure I remembered all the Presidents that I forgot I was looking for "C" names. I muttered Coolidge's name and passed right by it without a thought about the C! Fun quiz.

	Catherine_F:	Apr 27th, 2009 at 17:46 GMT	2 points
	Time was an issue for me here! But that's okay, means I have a score to work on next time. I missed some seemingly obvious ones like Carbon and Chelsea, while getting Cerium and Crystal Palace :)

	cressida:	Apr 27th, 2009 at 18:45 GMT	4 points
	love these letter quizzes. I typed in Chicago for a US State (not realising that it wasn't) and it came up in the film section :D
