Seconded. I would love to see maybe one like this for 1850 and 1950 if you can find the numbers.

Good quiz, but guessing in order seems rather unnecessary

If you didn't guess in order, it would just be a "guess the 30 largest cities in 2010" quiz.

I am confused by what you are actually asking for - based on the results, I think it is "Name the top 30 cities in 2010, ordered by their population in 1900". Adding the word 'ordered' would have really made it much easier for me to understand what you were requesting. That said, I like the concept a lot as it highlights the changes that have taken place over the past 110 years. If possible, it would be great to know their 1900 rank as well.
