	asking about the Canadian provinces is a little out of left field for a country quiz, same with the oceans and seas. Otherwise good idea though

	1447:	Dec 29th, 2009 at 18:18 GMT		9 points
	You forgot Cuba for the largest islands. Otherwise very nice quiz.

	fanofrocknroll:	Dec 29th, 2009 at 18:19 GMT		7 points
	i liked it...i think you should accept drc for democratic republic of the congo... i have seen it like that sometimes

	63fc:	Dec 29th, 2009 at 18:22 GMT		5 points
	I was just going to say drc and rep congo shold be accepted as standard abbreviations. Otherwise a very fun quiz.

	jennifer8:	Dec 29th, 2009 at 18:27 GMT		5 points
	Fun idea, but it gets to the point where I was just guessing every country I could think of hoping it would pop up somewhere. Maybe split it up into smaller quizzes?

	elnok:	Dec 29th, 2009 at 19:22 GMT		8 points
	I don't understand the islands question. It's not the world's largest islands, and it's no the largest countries made solely out of islands... What is it? Am I just dense?

	Bleu:	Dec 29th, 2009 at 20:01 GMT		2 points
	elnok: if you mean Indonesia I think it's not there because it shares three islands with another country: New Guinea with Papua New Guinea, Timor with Timor-Leste and Borneo with Malaysia+Brunei

	jordofthejungle:	Dec 29th, 2009 at 20:04 GMT		4 points
	the islands question is only for sovereign states that do not border a single other country (the indonesia example is spot on)

	beforever:	Dec 29th, 2009 at 20:25 GMT		4 points
	I also agree that the sea, the ocean, the bay and the Canadian provinces are a little bit out of place.

	smarty:	Dec 29th, 2009 at 20:45 GMT		1 point
	please accept roc for republic of the congo, like on all other sporcle quizzes.

	kristen58:	Dec 29th, 2009 at 21:46 GMT		5 points
	fun, but not enough time for how long (and large) the quiz is. i wasted most of the time scrolling up and down and up again because it doesn't fit on the screen at all. i barely even had time to glance at the last four or five of the categories before the time ran out.

	kristen58:	Dec 29th, 2009 at 21:47 GMT		7 points
	also, there's 6 countries at the bottom in the results that say 0% each, and i know i got all of those. you should fix that.

	Australia is never considered an island and should not be listed here on the list of largest islands, because it is a continent. Also, I like the idea of having the Canadian provinces on here, and I think your quiz would be much stronger if you had more of that kind of variety and less country answers. With the time constraints in place, it is far too easy to just list countries and hope that you get them right rather than providing a thoughtful answer to a question. I think this quiz has amazing potential, though:)

	DrEfficient:	Dec 30th, 2009 at 00:02 GMT		4 points
	Should be Canadian provinces + territories if you are going to include territories in there. Also the results get mixed up and mis-reported I think because of some bonus answers.

	thamesx2:	Dec 30th, 2009 at 00:05 GMT		1 point
	It should be specified that largest countries and "stans" is either population or area.

	ef232623:	Dec 30th, 2009 at 00:10 GMT		-1 points
	also, you need to list a source

	Why would Antarctica be under the countries on the Prime Meridian?? Antarctica isn't a country.

	Country with lowest high point? Cape Verde's highest point is 2,829m above sea level. The Maldives highest point is 2m above sea level and therefore has the "lowest high point"

	i would have liked more time to actually think it through- when it got down to the end I was just guessing random countries

	Mortz:	Dec 31st, 2009 at 11:06 GMT		4 points
	Australia is not an island, maybe you can change the heading to largest countries with no land border?

	nyo:	Dec 31st, 2009 at 14:57 GMT		2 points
	Australia is not an island. It needs to be removed. Otherwise good quiz I guess, though I agree with the Canadian provinces being slightly out of place.

	deej:	Dec 31st, 2009 at 16:28 GMT		-1 points
	i did like the ideas in the quiz a lot, but they might not be best suited for the sporcle quiz format. For one, you should probably make us answer the questions in order; otherwise someone could just type a bunch of random countries and get some right, which is never a good idea. Also, the layout of the quiz makes it very long, and having to travel beyond the data entry box to read a clue is an unwritten no-no. Maybe you could split it up into two quizzes, which would solve both problems

	Also Canada only has ten provinces - the other three are territories

	Taiwan is not listed as a Sovereign country = one point.
