	great idea for a game. Add more openings.

	I'm glad somebody sees promise in this quiz. I've doubled the number of openings.

	Reti Opening should be acceptable for Nf3. It's only a KIA if White follows up by fianchettoing on the kingside.

	Also, you misspelled "Giuoco" in the Giuoco Piano, and you should probably add 3...Bc5 at least to distinguish it from the Two Knights Defense. Great idea for a quiz, though.

	Thanks for the fixes.

	The last move on scholar's mate should Qf7#, not Qxf7.

	Nice quiz!

	The scholar's mate should have the bishop going to c4, not b4

	Alekhine, Slav, Scotch, Scandinavian (Center-Counter Gambit), 2 Knights and 4 Knights are next to be added. If you want to make it harder, then things like Colle System, Torre Attack, Veresov and Trompowsky (etc.) are also possible. As for 1.Nf3, either accept KIA as an answer or better yet list the moves as 1.Nf3 d5 2.c4, which is the ML Reti - nearly anything else is either KIA or a transposition. And this is a better source: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_chess_openings

	fantastic quiz. really brilliant. i could not spell guico piano for my life haha!

	It would be nice if Scotch Game and Alekhine Defense were on here.

	'Trompowski' is almost always spelled 'Trompowsky', and the Reti should be 1. Nf3 d5 2. c4. 'Centre Counter (Game/Defense/nothing)' should be an acceptable alternative to 'Scandinavian'. Still, a promising quiz.
