	Any suggestions, complaints, etc. are appreciated. How you enjoyed the quiz

	JezuzFingerz:	Oct 8th, 2009 at 04:08 GMT	3 points
	Good quiz, I don't think Myanmar should be a bonus though.

	fatbeard:	Oct 8th, 2009 at 04:12 GMT	-1 points
	I put it as a bonus just cause I didn't think it would occur to people to guess it.

	TimeAndTide:	Oct 8th, 2009 at 04:18 GMT	5 points
	I agree with JezuzFingerz. The U.N. has recognized Myanmar as "Myanmar" for 20 years now, as have a lot of countries (not the U.S., Canada, France, etc., though). Besides -- and most importantly! -- that country is listed as "Myanmar" in official Sporcle quizzes. :-)

	Myanmar is the accepted answer in somewhere in the neighborhood of 100% of geography quizzes on facebook.

	please add Ivory Coast

	princessofb:	Oct 8th, 2009 at 04:48 GMT	5 points
	But Ivory Coast is officially Cote d'Ivoire, which doesn't have a 'y' in it.

	i think you should have them in alphabetical order. would give a hint when your struggling.

	fatbeard:	Oct 8th, 2009 at 05:11 GMT	7 points
	Myanmar is now one of the answers, yeah i don't really know what i was thinking. Ivory Coast i put as a bonus, and they're now in alphabetical order to help out

	That was surprisingly hard, I kept forgetting the most obvious ones. Fun quiz!

	By the way everyone, if you enjoyed tihs, I would urge you to try some of my other quizzes: Countries with K and Countries with all five vowels

	iceman1731:	Oct 8th, 2009 at 06:41 GMT	-3 points
	You missed Hungary

	fatbeard:	Oct 8th, 2009 at 07:25 GMT	1 point
	from what I can see, hungary is on the list. are you sure you entered it correctly?

	dodsface:	Oct 8th, 2009 at 16:19 GMT	1 point
	there is a list of X,Y,Z countries on the actual published sporcal games, so this is a bit pointless cuz the other one has them all

	fatbeard:	Oct 8th, 2009 at 17:52 GMT	3 points
	Well, for whatever reason, that quiz did not show up under related quizzes when I though of this quiz. I agree it sorta nullifies this quiz, but I suppose if you want a faster alternative, than this is the one. I like the idea of only having to find one letter anyway, since I think the more letters you have to look for, the more sloppy you get

	sarahg:	Oct 8th, 2009 at 21:16 GMT	1 point
	can we have fyrom as a bonus?

	fatbeard:	Oct 9th, 2009 at 01:14 GMT	1 point
	@sarah, ask and ye shall receiv

	sous_chef:	Oct 9th, 2009 at 16:13 GMT	1 point
	I felt really clever when I got Yemen, now, looking at the most guessed, I feel like an idiot! I did get the Vatican though and a few bonuses, former yugoslav republic of macedonia took about a minute to write though! :P 14/19

	SanityLapse:	Oct 10th, 2009 at 08:17 GMT	2 points
	I'm getting frustrated with myself and the amount of time I'm spending on sporcle. I get Kyrgyzstan, Seychelles, and Cyprus correct...but I miss Germany, Italy, and Turkey. >:(

	llewdor:	Oct 10th, 2009 at 18:04 GMT	-2 points
	The Vatican is generally called "Vatican" on Sporcle quizzes. Vatican City is the capital. I wouldn't include it here.

	fatbeard:	Oct 11th, 2009 at 02:49 GMT	3 points
	@llewdor, actually, The Vatican is called Vatican City in sporcle quizzes. Though yes, it accepts vatican on the countries of the world and countries of europe quizzes, the name that shows is Vatican City, and seeing as that is the name of the country, it doesn't seem right or fair to keep it off the list.

	Ooo just missed Syria and Guyana (Should have got the latter!) Good quiz :P

	jp18:	Mar 11th, 2010 at 01:38 GMT	1 point
	i'm the only one i know who could get kyrgyzstan and miss italy

	koopa08:	Apr 19th, 2010 at 05:44 GMT	1 point
	I liked it! Although, once I exhausted my guesses, I noticed they were list alphabetically, which made it much easier to finish up.

	moviegoer74:	Apr 14th, 2011 at 14:56 GMT	1 point
	I think alphabetical order makes this too easy. On some of these types of quizzes you need it just so you can keep track of which correct answers you've already got, but with only 19 answers, it's not necessary.

	koopa08:	Oct 16th, 2011 at 04:26 GMT	1 point
	See above. I got all but 6 or 7 until I realized they were in ABC order. After that, it was no sweat.
