	Good game. Should limit it to a minute however.

	2 minutes is way too long for anyone who's ever played chess or even seen a chess board.

	should create a game where the quiz taker has to put the pieces in their correct places

	SlovakOne:	Apr 11th, 2009 at 19:58 GMT	3 points
	9 seconds. Easy. Some info: In Slovakia, we call Rook - Tower, Knight - Raider or Horse, and Bishop - Shooter.

	AtomicIce:	Apr 13th, 2009 at 05:12 GMT	0 points
	30 seconds would be more than enough for this quiz. 20 seconds per answer? Using that same length of time per answer would yield a 45 minute time limit for the Europe's Largest Cities quiz (which is massively harder than this one) rather than 15 minutes.
