don't force people to write out 'desert' for each one - just 'sahara' should really be good enough. I'm also not sure about the Arctic Desert - the best references I can find suggest that there's no real 'arctic desert' region, and certainly not one that's nearly as large as the Antarctic. What's your source?

Can you change it so we don't need to type in desert for every answer?

Oh and with the arctic desert if you google it or wikipedia it says it is a polar desert that goes over Canada and greenland so I am going go to keep it unless if you give me a source I can look at @acl

You misspelled Patagonia. Please list your source in the quiz heading and it's usually best to stay away from wiki sources. this is the source used by wikipedia though http://geology.com/records/largest-desert.shtml

Nice quiz, jubeejuba! If you like desert-related quizzes you might like this one: http://www.sporcle.com/games/tahitiwahini/desert_countries It covers the countries that contain deserts within their borders.
