You did a perfect job choosing the cutoff for what not to include on this quiz- enough to be a good, comprehensive list but not so many that it becomes a "name 30 Los Angeles suburbs" quiz.

dude. Don't put the metro area on there. It makes it too easy.

If the metro area isn't on here, it's just a matter of guessing random cities in the U.S. That is so completely uninteresting to me that I wouldn't bother. This is perfect.
