Thanks for the feedback, guys. It's my first quiz. I think if I make it so you don't have to go in order, the 5 minute time limit will be more reasonable? I'll try it.

Done. And what I'd really like to do is make it so you can guess the top five for each franchise. Can't figure out how to set that up though.

OK, I set it up to include the top five for each franchise.
