That would be pretty cool. Would you have to labe all the pawns though?

Easy and I'm just 13. 30 seconds should be the time limit. So people don't have enough time to cheat on google and such.

Meh, for some reason I was convinced the Rook was actually called the Tower. So much for that.

9 seconds. Easy. Some info: In Slovakia, we call Rook - Tower, Knight - Raider or Horse, and Bishop - Shooter.

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.
