	Surprisingly hard. Especially when I couldn't get Alabama out of my head!

	Nice quiz. I guess the time limit was just right, because right before 0:00 I thought of my last one (New Jersey), which I couldn't type anymore.

	The time limit was right, but I could not quiz my 14th answer out of my head. Connecticut

	14/14 Another quiz where singing Fifty Nifty helped tremendously.

	How many people started typing a state, only to come up against an A and have to back off?

	gsroest:	Oct 3rd, 2009 at 14:11 GMT		25 points
	its so frustrating when your spelling out a word in your head and there is one stupid a at the end. v-i-r-g-i-n-i-a - dammit! next state...

	How did I miss Mississippi? I even know the song for spelling it.

	Fun quiz. Part of me wishes for another minute, but then I remember that if I hadn't wasted all that time typing M-i-n-n-e-s-o-t...then backspacing (among others), I would have had enough time. Also wasted too much time running both "North" and "South" states through my head, as if the people in SOUTH Carolina would have decided to take out the a's for some reason.

	No love for Wisconsin, people? :(

	awesome quiz! Only missed one lol, guess I got lucky of not doing the "Typing the state and BAM! There's an 'a' at the end!" syndrome. 5/5

	@ gsroest - I did the exact same thing! And then like 30 seconds later I was like 'Oh I know! WEST Virginia!' Fail.

	missed wisconsin, but got all the rest :)

	I'm just glad that state with Boston as the capital has an A in it. It's a bitch to spell.

	@Loona: Sporcle's main attraction for me, and I suspect many others, is its geography quizzes. Without more coming out every week, there'd be no more quizzes that really pique my interest that I haven't already played.

	Pennsylv - Okay, Tex - Maybe Florid - Wisconsin? Finally

	12/14 for a Canadian. I'm satisfied.

	In second grade we had to learn how to spell all the states. The trick for Connecticut was simply: Connect - I - Cut. Never forgot it.

	13/14. I typed Kentucky, but impossible for me to remember the name of the "other" state I always combine with it. Tennessee I hate you !

	nice idea for quiz but time limit ludicrously short for non-americans

	Rats, missed Wyoming

	Hugh:	Oct 3rd, 2009 at 16:26 GMT		3 points
	Fun quiz, did start getting frustrated as i continually typed Georgia wondering why it wouldn't come up!

	@Anonymous42: But can you really say Geography is all that interests you? For me, I'm interested in many other topics other than Geography (ie. Science), so it gets tiring when there's so much focus on this one subject and so little focus on other areas of interest. But even then, a lot of the Geography quizzes are very similar in their format; even in the geography category itself there isn't much variation (alot of it is just listing countries that relate in some way (ie. a letter).

	Am I the only one who thinks it's cool you can drive through seven of them without hitting an 'a' state?
