	Great quiz - should probably accept "Mausoleum at Halicarnassus" for the wonders section.

	bsd987:	Jan 15th, 2010 at 03:09 GMT		13 points
	Great quiz, but I would look for something other than seven largest islands and seven largest countries. The other categories are true groups of seven; those are just the seven largest of a much larger group.

	Also, you need to accept a lot more alternate answers for the seven wonders.

	Caedus:	Jan 15th, 2010 at 03:17 GMT		13 points
	Yukon borders the U.S. as well as it's right next to Alaska

	scgal:	Jan 15th, 2010 at 03:24 GMT		13 points
	Should accept some variation for the great pyramid, like "giza" or "pyramid."

	Rdub19:	Jan 15th, 2010 at 04:53 GMT		17 points
	Caedus, Yukon is a territory, not a province.

	Brilliant quiz, but you do need to accept more alternate answers for the seven wonders. scgal and podsednik are right. Also, accept all the answers with 'of' with 'at' instead, e.g. Lighthouse at Alexandria. I think spelling 'maussolus' with one 'l' and a 'u' instead of an 'o' is acceptable. I've seen it spelt that way elsewhere.

	I was thinking of guessing Honshu, but then I thought, "Nah, it's too small". [Facepalm]

	kristen58:	Jan 15th, 2010 at 05:33 GMT		5 points
	You should also take "Great Pyramids" or "Pyramids of Giza"

	1447:	Jan 15th, 2010 at 05:42 GMT		2 points
	The seventh summit is not Mount Kosciuszko, but Puncak Jaya (also known as Mt. Carstensz or Carstensz Pyramid). Puncak Jaya, at 4,884 metres, is much taller than Mount Kosciuszko at 2,228 metres, and is located in the Papua province of Indonesia, which puts it on the Australian continent. Otherwise very good quiz.

	bernerd:	Jan 15th, 2010 at 08:02 GMT		2 points
	@1447 - It depends on the definition of Australia really, this is a source of much date. But, regardless, Kosciuszko is the correct answer as it is one of the seven summits (rightly or wrongly), and Puncak Jaya is not. Mount Cook in NZ is also much taller than Kosciuszko, but it's not one of the seven summits either.

	How come Mozambique isn't accepted for an African country beginning with M? Otherwise good quiz. Missed quite a few I should have got though.

	pbrown:	Jan 15th, 2010 at 13:49 GMT		4 points
	Also accept "Denali" for Mount McKinley

	oxburger:	Jan 15th, 2010 at 14:03 GMT		3 points
	solid quiz

	geowiz85:	Jan 15th, 2010 at 15:25 GMT		3 points
	like the quiz, except the largest cities section, sporcle sources usually list tokyo and mexico city on the top

	Quacksalver:	Jan 15th, 2010 at 15:37 GMT		-1 points
	Surely one of the more northerly provinces such as yukon borders alaska. Maybe im wrong

	elnok:	Jan 15th, 2010 at 15:57 GMT		1 point
	I agree that the cities and countries don't really fit, because they're not classic sevens. But great quiz otherwise.

	5daughters:	Jan 15th, 2010 at 16:05 GMT		0 points
	Great quiz!! Like others, don't get why Tokyo and Mexico City aren't in the top populated cities. Would have liked another minute... I am pokey, but still ran out time before getting to answer more than my usual.

Maybe for the wonders you should accept just the first word, such as "colossus" or "lighthouse". I tried typing "colossus of rhodes" many times just like that and it didn't accept it. Also, Yukon borders alaska, so there aren't really 7 in that category. Another minute would have been nice too. I didn't really have time to get to the last category before the time ran out. I don't think 10 minutes is unreasonable for a quiz of this size

	Don't understand why Tokyo and Mexico City aren't at the top. Also, you need to accept a lot more alternate answers for the seven wonders. I typed in "pyramids" and "Giza", and it didn't give it to me. Good quiz, though.

	Bahrain being in the Indian Ocean is a stretch also.

	FedericoDeLaFe:	Jan 15th, 2010 at 20:39 GMT		2 points
	@bernerd– according to the Messner list, Karsten's Pyramid is one of the seven summits. Since it's a question of which list one chooses to accept, it seems like both answers should be accepted on this quiz.

	hero:	Jan 15th, 2010 at 21:49 GMT		-4 points
	I think you should enclude yukon!

	Who would think Mauritius would get me two answers on a Sporcle quiz?

	Onno:	Jan 16th, 2010 at 09:02 GMT		4 points
	If Bahrain is an island country in the Indian Ocean, then so is Singapore.

	I'm glad everyone is enjoying the quiz! A few notes: The Yukon territory is a territory, not a province. I'm accepting about 8 answers for the Australian summit. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_island_countries_and_territories_in_the_Indian_Ocean is the final word on that set. I think everyone should be satisfied with the seven wonders. You can now type 'Zeus' and it takes it.

	ChileNoseJam:	Jan 16th, 2010 at 16:53 GMT		4 points
	Nice quiz, but I'm going to disagree with, it seems, most people on the seven wonders - some of the answers accepted are far too generous. There are lots of ancient temples and statues and not all are considered wonders, so "temple" or "statue" should not be enough without some mention of Diana/Artemis or Zeus respectively. I'm happy with "pyramids", since although there are other ancient pyramids it would be assumed in general conversation that anyone referring to "the Pyramids" would mean the ones at Giza.

	dtro:	Jan 16th, 2010 at 17:52 GMT		0 points
	Wait so Yukon and Northwest are not provinces? Why are they on the Canadian provinces quiz?

	geniusonwheels:	Jan 16th, 2010 at 21:06 GMT		2 points
	@ChileNoseJam - Thank you for agreeing with me. People (see 20ish above are saying 'why didn't you accept this?' and you are the first one to say that something is to generic. @dtro - The title of that quiz says Can you name the Canadian Provinces and Territories?

	Mayan:	Jan 19th, 2010 at 12:47 GMT		2 points
	Great quiz, but please makt it accept 'Mount Everest'.

	DethLeppard:	Jan 19th, 2010 at 16:02 GMT		2 points
	For some reason, if you type in "The", Kosciuszko comes up. Must be a little glitch.

	bsd987:	Jan 19th, 2010 at 20:04 GMT		3 points
	Geniusonwheels, love the changes to the quiz. This is now very top-notch. Great job.

	Incredibly well-researched, nominated. :)

	A wiki list is not a definitive list. Bahrain is not in the Indian Ocean, unless Malta is in

Countries claiming territory in Antarctica

	This is the best quiz I've played in a long time!

	Jam1:	Dec 1st, 2010 at 11:21 GMT		1 point
	Sorry for the double comment, but If I were you I would change the Ancient wonders section to the natural wonders. Ancient wonders are more historical than geographical, natural wonders are completely geographical.
