	Guh, I could have sworn it was Frankfurt, Kentucky. I was just off by a few countries and an ocean.

	Qatar was the first thing that came to mind lol

	Damn you, Ulan Bator! The states were the easiest, because I memorized them in order when I was a kid by first memorizing how many began with each letter. Nice quiz!

	"RSTLNE" are common letters, anything starting with those can be ignored.... baaaad idea.

	Got the top 17 answers and missed the bottom ten - sometimes statistics do tell the truth!

	Wow. Missed Nixon. And guessed the Dutch guy. Quito as well. At times liek these, Sporcle frustrates me quite a bit.

	Great quiz except maybe for my results LOL.

	Um, the last I checked, Uranium is the ONLY element to have an official name and begin with a U. Anything that begins with an "un" is just a placeholder until IUPAC adopts an official name.

	This quiz is fubar on the iPhone app. All the answers are appearing under the wrong heading... Unless Obama really is a state capital and nobody told me??

Not US-centric enough... I want ALL of the answers to be about glorious nation of US and A, not just 90% of them!

	@Ribhump I'm British and scored 14 (77th percentile), including 6 states and 2 presidents. Still possible to make up for lack of US knowledge with everything else.

	Dircashede:	Aug 13th, 2010 at 17:08 GMT	11 points
	Have to admit, my first guess of presidents was Adams, followed shortly by facepalm.

	Impossible to be a Brit Sporcler and not to have a fair number of states, presidents, state capitals, NFBLH??? teams, if only by osmosis...

	Jerdoggiedog:	Aug 13th, 2010 at 18:09 GMT	7 points
	Thanks to They Might be Giants. The Alphabet of Nations helped me polish off the first category. But it seemed like there was room for another and it didn't take the country of West Xylophone.

	Interesting how the Middle East has all the countries with a unique first letter

	sporcling123:	Aug 13th, 2010 at 21:13 GMT	5 points
	A very unique quiz

	Rayavi:	Aug 13th, 2010 at 21:24 GMT	6 points
	@asromafan: And the MidWEST has all the state capitals with a unique first letter. Coincidence? I THINK NOT.

	puckett86:	Aug 13th, 2010 at 21:39 GMT	5 points
	This was the first time I've ever gotten all of the answers on a quiz that has less than 1% getting 100% correct. Probably the last time too so I am going to enjoy it by leaving this comment and breaking Sporcle code (sorry).

	Did really well on the quiz overall, but sank like a sailboat hit by a torpedo when it came to the world capitals.

	Much more challenging than it seems. Fun quiz!

	Cubby:	Aug 13th, 2010 at 23:23 GMT	3 points
	Good Quiz! Thank you Sporcle, for teaching me all the countries and capitals!

	Even though only 63.3 percent of Sporcle-ers guess Van Buren on the presidents quiz, he's the only one I was able to get.

	ohyeah:	Aug 14th, 2010 at 04:22 GMT	4 points
	the point is that all the answers in each category are the only ones in the group that start with that letter.

	@zitaspo: Your opening statement is the same one used by Hester Prynne on trial in Boston. Pretty sure that letter "A" didn't qualify her as unique. When is "A" unique? Why, when it represents "F", of course.
