	was thinking "the the" for british rock band, but unfortunately they never had a song entitled "the the"

	Not being familiar with the original rhyme, I opted for the elementary school insult of 'cheater cheater' pumpkin eater.

	Andy B: not at all; you have it backwards. Some of the earliest citations in the OED under "pompom/pompon" have the spelling "pompon" for the clothing decoration; not one of the four cheerleading-related citations has a final "n". (Also: I rather liked this quiz.)

	I was thinking Mr. Mister. Once you get one of those wrong answers in your head, it's hard to think of something else.

	What about Boutros Boutros Ghali?

	While I was trying to figure out how to spell the Hawaiian dress, I accidentally got the Kenyan uprising.

	did anyone else find it wierd that we had to type in some of the words twice? i.e. knock knock instead of just knock - thats a valuable 1-1.5 seconds that i could have had left when i clicked give up.. good quiz anyway!!

	Never heard that term for "sunken fence," but I might have gotten "dorado fish" if it had been listed as "Dolphinfish."

	davidr:	Mar 17th, 2009 at 09:13 GMT	9 points
	@B-Rock: It is on the list but you have to spell it right.

	the perfect vision could also be a type of cricket than bankrupt US billionaires try to ruin :)

	lol @ cheerleader's fluffy balls.

	@Flinty - that's not cricket! Not the way real lovers of the game play it anyway

	dummo:	Mar 17th, 2009 at 10:42 GMT	4 points
	Rather difficult quiz. There were a fair few obscure answers from a very wide range of topics.

	dbcint:	Mar 17th, 2009 at 10:43 GMT	3 points
	Great quiz, but I don't get the sunken fence thing. No idea how it relates at all

	shel99:	Mar 17th, 2009 at 10:45 GMT	5 points
	Never heard of that term for a sunken fence. Cool quiz idea! I can't believe I missed the flightless bird...

	jvwald:	Mar 17th, 2009 at 11:44 GMT	4 points
	The title is " Can you name the things with are made up of repeated things?" It may need a re-read.

	Beri-beri is B2 deficiency, not B in general (if we're being picky, there is no vitamin simply called B). Apart from that, great quiz! Really interesting. I thought perhaps the clues could be more descriptive, like mentioning tricks for 'child's plaything on a string', but maybe that's part of the challenge.

	@Evan: It's because there are always additional answers that could be included in quizzes such as this one. (And if they were all included, the quiz would be very long indeed). Sporclers have simply grown tired of "What about _______?"

	davidr:	Mar 17th, 2009 at 12:43 GMT	3 points
	@flinty: The official name of that form of cricket is `Twenty20', which doesn't quite fit the form of the quiz.

	davidr:	Mar 17th, 2009 at 12:49 GMT	5 points
	@Evan: People vote up the comments they like and vote down the comments they don't like. The answer to the question `Why did such-and-such a comment get voted down?' is always the same: because people didn't like it.

	25/40...and kicking myself for most of the ones I missed. Definitely harder than the ones where you get one or a few words that are part of all the answers. Great quiz.

	gopaladins:	Mar 17th, 2009 at 13:37 GMT	3 points
	confession: for the house of commons cheer, i put "huzzah huzzah". i'm sorry. you brits didn't tell me about that part.

	shannon:	Mar 17th, 2009 at 13:40 GMT	0 points
	There are alternate spellings for tse tse fly that should be included.

	36/40 yummy yummy quiz

	Biohazard:	Mar 17th, 2009 at 13:48 GMT	1 point
	Like PNeville85, I was always familiar with the "Cheater, cheater, pumpkin eater" version. Alas.

	drza:	Mar 17th, 2009 at 13:55 GMT	-1 points
	Did anyone else type in sing sing and it didnt show up? I tried it twice,I admit I make spelling mistakes on here when I try to type quick sometimes but I cant imagine doing it twice and not catching it either time. I hate when you know an answer and it doesnt show up,usually because of spelling,it makes it hard to move past it. Still like the quiz and love sporcle. Happy St Patricks day O'Sporcle!
