	A sports-related Google Maps quiz now...I made it to accept up to 3 alternative names per school, so let me know if I'm missing any that MUST be accepted, I tried to include quite a few alt/abbreviated names.

	mallard:	Mar 30th, 2012 at 01:18 GMT		2 points
	I'm still in the middle of playing, but so far it's missing/hasn't allowed Tennessee Tech, Southern Illinois, and IUPUI.

	wasting2muchtime:	Mar 30th, 2012 at 01:28 GMT		2 points
	for me it wouldn't take either Southern Illinois or Southern illinois - Edwardsville (or "southernillinoisedwardsv" as there is not enough space). @mallard, it did take "indianapurdueindianapolis." @darin, also is there any way you can accept just "am" for "a&m?" Also, some of the new york state universities could accept just the normal names (e.g. "buffalo," albany") For the "loyola's" why do you have to enter in the state? and finally, maybe don't accept just "boston" for BU, especially because BC is much more commonly known, its got a Dominica, DR situation going on. Anyway, cool quiz.

	also, it only accepts, "college of charleston." and I forgot how to use the paragraph things in comments...whoops

	mallard:	Mar 30th, 2012 at 01:33 GMT		1 point
	fresno state and long beach state weren't working

	darinh:	Mar 30th, 2012 at 01:45 GMT		1 point
	above have all been added - thanks.

	ginandtacos:	Mar 30th, 2012 at 02:05 GMT		3 points
	Fresno state still doesn't work. Texas AM CC - in fact, half of the texas and california state schools don't work. Nice idea, but really frustrating trying to figure out what to type for some of the schools with elaborate names.

	darinh:	Mar 30th, 2012 at 02:08 GMT		1 point
	just tried fresno state and it works. texas am cc is texas a and m corpus christi...i'll try to get some more alts in for cal/texas schools but only have room for 4 total names per school.

	wasting2muchtime:	Mar 30th, 2012 at 02:19 GMT		3 points
	i got 250 institutions and 25 states (not trying to brag, don't vote me down haha) but didn't get the 150 or 200 institutions, or 15 states answers...

	darinh:	Mar 30th, 2012 at 02:21 GMT		1 point
	oh whoops will fix those :)

	Feely:	Mar 30th, 2012 at 03:50 GMT		4 points
	Got them all, except I had to look up the full name of NC A&T - had to put in "North Carolina Agriculture and Technical State" before it took - so "North Carolina A and T" should work. Excellent quiz, rating it 5 stars, but also keep things a bit more consistent - like, Northern Kentucky isn't joining the Atlantic Sun until next season (and I believe the same for New Orleans returning to D-1), so if NKU is included, maybe the new MWC, WAC, Big 12, Longwood to the Big South, etc. realignments should be? But yeah, great job.

	Feely:	Mar 30th, 2012 at 03:51 GMT		2 points
	Oh, and the MWC and C-USA codes don't seem to work, as only three letters are appearing.

	alabamapaladin:	Mar 30th, 2012 at 04:34 GMT		4 points
	This was a really fun challenge - and really frustrating toward the end! A few versions that you might consider accepting: Cal/California (requiring Berkeley seems to run counter to the game note about state names sufficing), Detroit (I usually hear it now without Mercy), Charlotte (seems to be the preferred name now over UNC Charlotte), and Chattanooga (preferred name over Tennessee-Chattanooga).

	darinh:	Mar 30th, 2012 at 12:21 GMT		1 point
	@Feely: will fix those...I believe New Orleans never actually fully transitioned to DII and decided to remain DI so it should be left in. @alabama: will add those alternatives later today.

	montecarlo:	Mar 30th, 2012 at 14:01 GMT		6 points
	glad to see you bring your talents to the sports section darin. only suggestion is that you acquaint yourself with all of the abbreviations that are standard over here (ex: uncg instead of north carolina greensboro). it would be like a great sports quiz writer coming over to geography land and forcing the quiz takers to type 'democratic republic of the congo' instead of drc.

	What? My favorite geography quiz maker is now making sports quizzes? Goodbye, productivity.

	Booger:	Mar 30th, 2012 at 21:22 GMT		1 point
	Quiz does not accept North Carolina A and T.

	jonnyr12:	Mar 31st, 2012 at 16:30 GMT		1 point
	Awesome awesome awesome. I agree with most of the above comments about abbreviation: check the other quizzes here for acceptable abbreviations (I was still able to figure them all out eventually). Two geography things: you have LIU located way out on Long Island somewhere, rather than its actual location in Brooklyn, and you have Rutgers located in Newark, rather than in New Brunswick.

	dxdtdemon:	Mar 31st, 2012 at 20:18 GMT		-3 points
	It's not accepting Eastern Tennessee State.

	darinh:	Apr 1st, 2012 at 03:45 GMT		1 point
	will add more abbreviations and fix above issues tomorrow..thx.

	and about locations, Central Florida shows up nowhere near Orlando

	y2jdilemma:	Apr 1st, 2012 at 23:34 GMT		1 point
	Quite a few I couldnt get to register. College of Charleston (or Charleston), Coastal Carolina, Texas A&M-CC (as others have said) and a handful of others Ive probaby forgotten. Also, the right side is cut off for me, so I cant see any of the codes from WAC on down. Any suggestions?

	darinh:	Apr 2nd, 2012 at 02:40 GMT		1 point
	fixing everything now - @pita: central florida is located correctly, on the east side of the orlando metro area. @y2j: charleston, coastal carolina both worked before - added "texas a and m cc"...don't know about why the right side is cut off?

	darinh:	Apr 2nd, 2012 at 14:36 GMT		1 point
	just looking around the map i guess those football stadiums can help, if you feel like kinda cheating :)

	Getting all the schools in Kentucky doesn't take KY off the list of states yet to complete... It isn't material, since the last code is for 45 states, just something to note. Sweet quiz altogether. Are you thinking of a map quiz for all the counties/county equivalents (I like the largest-city-in-each-county one)?

	darinh:	Apr 2nd, 2012 at 17:35 GMT		1 point
	@jaz: ahh...i removed Northern Kentucky due to it not being in Div I yet but forgot to lower KY's total by 1..will fix soon. County equivalent quiz maybe down the road, but some others first.

	The 15 Conference code doesn't work for the 10 Conference answer. Great job though.

	mallard:	Apr 2nd, 2012 at 22:49 GMT		2 points
	quiz isn't taking cal state northridge

	darinh:	Apr 3rd, 2012 at 02:10 GMT		1 point
	fixed.

	I am pretty certain that UW Milwaukee is now just Milwaukee and UW Green Bay is just Green Bay.

	You should specify which sports you are including for Division 1 status--Alaska has two Division 1 hockey schools.

	apostrophes are not consistent (like in saint whatever's). also, could you accept "st." for "saint"?

	Ronaldingo:	Apr 7th, 2012 at 17:00 GMT		1 point
	Never accepted Saint Francis (PA). I tried everything. St. Francis. St. Francis PA. St. Francis Pennsylvania. Saint Francis. Saint Francis PA. Saint Francis Pennsylvania. Saint Francis Pennsylvania Loretto. etc.

	darinh:	Apr 9th, 2012 at 15:00 GMT		1 point
	@Ronaldingo - St Francis without the "." works - stated in notes no punctuation.

	Hamburger:	Apr 13th, 2012 at 11:52 GMT		1 point
	One thing i find annoying is that I have to type California St Bakersfield instead of Cal State Bakersfield or California State Bakersfield. (etc with the other Cal States). I also think that some of the answers are needlessly long, such as Southeast Missouri State or Mississippi Valley State, etc. I feel they should generate answers as Southeast Missouri or Mississippi Valley (etc), in much the way you have Sam Houston (not Sam Houston State), etc. Otherwise this is an excellent quiz which I have favorited and voted for 5 globes. Unfortunately I do not think Sporcle has recorded a single "play" for me as I never have played the official part of the game, but just the map section.

	Additionally, Northern Kentucky will be moving to Division I this fall and will join the Atlantic Sun Conference.

	The flag for Nebraska at Omaha is currently white, but should be the purple-ish color of the other independent schools.

	pausing the game erases all progress. guess i should've gone to the bathroom before starting this quiz

	editer_sic:	May 6th, 2012 at 19:28 GMT		3 points
	There is no Eastern Tennessee State. It's East Tennessee State. Just like there is no Eastern Carolina.

	not a bad quiz in theory, but you've given way way way too little time.
