| You have a Vatican and a Vatican City, and for some reason the second is starred... also, the Sporcle standard for the capital of Palau is Melekeok, not Koror. |

@thedpr: fixed - thanks.
@jonny: yep just found it as you entered that probably - added. |

| Muscat doesn't seem to work for Masqat, which I've never seen used on Sporcle before. |

| Sri Jayawardenapura (aka Sri) is the capital of Sri Lanka, not Colombo. Great Game, though! |
| darinh: | Jul 9th, 2011 at 02:35 GMT | | 7 points |
| @Ash: yeah I included it as Colombo both due to the spelling challenge and the fact that it's a suburb practically - a little gift maybe. Both answers are accepted. |

| Entering Port Louis fills in Nouakchott - that's got to be more than 1000 km |

| tb1...thx for heads up, think bad coordinate on one. Port Louis is now a * answer. |

| Great quiz, but it could do with just one or two more minutes. It was a bit short. |

| Sporcle standard is to accept Kotte for Sri Jayawardenapura Kotte, the capital of Sri Lanka. Good quiz otherwise. |

| i'll add Kotte as an alternative - thx. going to leave the time as is...I like the 1% success rate :) |

| Africa destroyed me on this one. What a huge surprise. Also missed some perfectly obvious island capitals in my last 20 seconds of panicking. So much fun. |

| Port au Prince isn't within 1000km of Havana? It's the only Western Hemisphere capital I missed. Missed the "H" in Kathmandu. Mogadishu isn't within 1000km of any other African capital? A few other surprises that I missed. Forget the Ocenia island countries. |

| I tried Ulaan Bataar, Ulan Batar, Ulan Bataar but didn't think of trying Ulaan Baatar. maybe some alternate spellings for that one. |

| Thank you for accepting just Sri. I always have a hard time spelling Jayawardenapura. |

| @leppyfresh, I typed in Kotte and it accepted it. |

| thx Sporcle for the publish! as for alternate spellings and such, I'd add more if I could but can't once a quiz is published. I do have ulaanbaatar and ulan bator accepted. thx for the comments too! |

| Probably the only quiz where Luxembourg and Vaduz will be the most guessed answers. Nicely tucked away in a 1000km radius of the big capitals! |
| ghankstewart: | Aug 19th, 2011 at 13:56 GMT | | 8 points |
| Has anyone figured out the minimum number of answers to get all 196? Maybe if I have some free time (say a day or too!)..... |
| ghankstewart: | Aug 19th, 2011 at 13:59 GMT | | 6 points |
| Here's a quick start; I counted 24 countries that have to be entered individually, so what's the fewest number needed to cover the remaining 172? |

| So I was doing well late in the game, and then I though 'Caribbean!' Most lucky random thought ever! |
