	I don't know if this has been made before, but I thought it was a good idea, so I hope you enjoy it. All of the U.S. States are possible on this quiz and are only used once. All countries are possible and like the U.S. States, they are only used once. As for the Continents, there are repeats and unfortunately Antarctica could not be used because there are no countries there. :( Anyway, please leave feedback or comments. Thanks

	nice one, i havn't played one like this, pretty original

	kennechiwa87:	Feb 13th, 2011 at 04:24 GMT	17 points
	Pretty sure The Philippines and Indonesia would be considered a part of Asia, not Oceania.

	jonesjeffum:	Feb 13th, 2011 at 04:24 GMT	4 points
	agree with the above

	jonesjeffum:	Feb 13th, 2011 at 04:25 GMT	17 points
	I like the concept but it was too easy... maybe make a more difficult one?

	nowaybrah76:	Feb 13th, 2011 at 04:27 GMT	5 points
	i liked it

	gwukelic:	Feb 13th, 2011 at 04:37 GMT	6 points
	@kennech and @jonesjeffum: Thank you for the help. I fixed it.

	teh_DR:	Feb 13th, 2011 at 04:56 GMT	9 points
	I thought this quiz would be about Carmen Sandiego.

	teh_DR:	Feb 13th, 2011 at 05:01 GMT	20 points
	BTW, any quiz with Kyrgyzstan as an answer is a great quiz.

	vendorsfan1:	Feb 13th, 2011 at 05:57 GMT	23 points
	We all agree that this quiz was a piece of Bishkek.

	I really like the idea of this quiz, however, there are cities like San Jose and Austin that are in multiple states, like San Jose is a city in Illinois and Austin is a city in Arkansas, Colorado, Illinois, Indiana, Minnesota, Nevada, and Oregon.

	w00t! Kyrgyzstan! I hear sporcle's proposing moving their HQ to Bishkek.

	better to use cities that aren't capitals. there are plenty of quizzes with capitals already.

	Brabant:	Feb 13th, 2011 at 18:42 GMT	14 points
	Wow, a geography quiz where Kyrgyzstan is the least guessed answer! @kaulbach: Never mind the different definitions, this is the Sporcle definition: http://www.sporcle.com/games/oceania.php

	Hawai'i does have an apostrophe in it, it's just usually dropped. Good quiz! The time amount is perfect. The mix of easy ones and ones that take a moment works well.

	D00M_M0USE:	Feb 13th, 2011 at 22:41 GMT	-1 points
	This is a great quiz, but possibly a bit too USA centred. I know the states and their capitals, but maybe you could do a quiz with UK counties, australian states etc included too. Go on, you know you want to.

	dpark:	Feb 14th, 2011 at 00:16 GMT	12 points
	I missed Kyrgyzstan... I don't think I deserve to be on sporcle anymore.

	glong971:	Feb 14th, 2011 at 02:03 GMT	2 points
	I like the use of a lot of the longer US state and the spin with Bishkek was nice. Good job and the time allowed was spot on.

	heeltothechief:	Feb 14th, 2011 at 03:15 GMT	6 points
	you can tell that 43% of sporcler's know just to guess Kyrgyzstan when any random country fact pops up

	Arkardian:	Feb 14th, 2011 at 03:43 GMT	2 points
	I always fail at the US portion of these quizzes... oh well =P

	i feel like a fool for not guessing Kyrgyzstan.

	There's a Chesapeake in Maryland too.

	HiddenPalace:	Feb 16th, 2011 at 23:17 GMT	2 points
	I could not get 3 of the ones for US cities, but then again I'm not American. Good quiz.

	HuskerTan:	Feb 17th, 2011 at 00:07 GMT	1 point
	I think I kinda liked that quiz! Now, if you could just make one that's fairly more difficult, we'd really be talking!

	boyzfootball4:	Feb 17th, 2011 at 18:25 GMT	3 points
	**** i hope im not the only one who missed seattle cause i was still trying to guess a state...

	seahearn4:	Feb 18th, 2011 at 01:11 GMT	3 points
	If you're looking to add a fourth category, you could ask for cities based on a given neighborhood or district of that city. Also, the quiz seems somewhat mis-ordered. Guessing continents is the easiest portion, yet it's the last column to work on.

	wanderbygrace:	Feb 18th, 2011 at 17:23 GMT	2 points
	Kyrgyzstan...but, of course. Great quiz - 5 globes.

	ALcu:	Feb 18th, 2011 at 21:07 GMT	2 points
	it's way too easy to name the countries by city since almost all of them are capitals, try using the second or third largest city of a country instead or use cities with names that can easily be guessed to be in a country by the official language of a country e.g Nürnberg in Germany or Nizhny Novgorod in Russia, hope you understand what I mean.

	Another great quiz from gwukelic... Nice one man!

	mccabebabe:	Feb 22nd, 2011 at 23:08 GMT	2 points
	:-( the only one I missed was....of course...... Kyrgyzstan

	mrpotwtf69:	Feb 23rd, 2011 at 19:12 GMT	2 points
	Hawaii has an apostrophe in it if you speak Hawaiian but not in English...

	robhop:	Sep 26th, 2011 at 19:05 GMT	2 points
	Whoosh! Finished with 23 seconds. Very fun quiz.
