	Another one which doesn't really need to be a minefield.

	Completely agree, just because the option is there doesn't mean you should use it

	Thanks for the feedback. I agree mines are overused in trivia quizzes. The idea here however is that players already know all the answers (by knowing the countries of Europe) and shouldn't have to guess. The goal is to beat the clock. The mine option forces you to not click until you mentally match the word with a country.

	Is there a reason why the words aren't alphabetical? It makes the quiz harder, which isn't always a bad thing, but it also makes it annoying. I'd rather have them alphabetical and reduce the time by a minute.

	At the top there is a link to a version without mines. @Debbie: Good point. I may change it to alphabetical. My rationale for random order is to keep the approach 'Is this word in a country' rather than 'Name all the words in a country' since not all words are used. Either way the game will likely fade into obscurity any minute now :)
