	Wow. Brilliant.

	hscer:	May 10th, 2013 at 04:04 GMT		1 point
	To answer the front page tagline question: Sporcle flag would be a red, yellow, and orange tri-color.

	And wow, once I understood the quiz...agree with teddy. Brilliant.

	Delighted to see this one published--the finest example of color morphing I've seen to date.

	At first, I thought this quiz was only European countries. With about a minute left, I couldn't think of any more European countries, so I tried Brazil. When Bolivia came up, I realized I was screwed

	Very fun. The "bordering countries" bit added an interesting touch.

	I got the country/capital/bordering country, but I still don't quite understand the quiz . . .

	@ChileNoseJam (in the archived comments): I'm not certain, but I imagine that those "extra" answers refer to the choices for the bordering countries. Several of the bordering countries also happen to be the country represented by the flag.

	I decided to work up a database on all the countries, and I believe my previous comment is correct. Listing all the countries represented by the flags and ALL of the neighboring countries (these might also include the countries represented by the flags--e.g., the second flag in Row 1 is a neighboring country of the second flag in Row 2), then deleting any duplicated countries, I was left with a total of 54 unique countries. Add those to the 12 capitals, you get 66.

	I think that's a coincidence - it is surely just as simple as the blank spaces counting as answers. Note that as soon as you start the quiz you have 24/66, and the results page gives = and as answers.

	This is nice to see.

	@Shortney87: Perhaps if you lobby some of those countries to change their flags, they'll be on a sequel...

	WredAguyW:	May 10th, 2013 at 13:04 GMT		8 points
	@Shortney87: And just how many East Asian or North/Central American countries have flags that are three horizontal lines? I'm sure if there was, they'd be included on here. And even if there was and they weren't on here, does it really bother you THAT much?

	cinnabar143:	May 10th, 2013 at 14:05 GMT		1 point
	i don't get it at all

	shakescene:	May 10th, 2013 at 16:32 GMT		3 points
	Without consulting a flag chart, my impression is that many of the other horizontal tricolors (e.g. in the Middle East, East Asia, Central Asia and much of Africa) also bear some kind of symbol in the most commonly-flown version (e.g. stars in the Syrian, and Iraqi flags or an eagle in the Egyptian one). The popular versions of the flags in this quiz are pure unadorned horizontal tricolors (at least until you get a correct answer!)

	It's odd that Chile is so much more guessed than Bolivia. Presumably that means people have just been bashing in country names in desperate hope...

	If it's not France, Germany, or Italy ... I'm not of much use here.

	Excellent. I love how fishing for a bordering country serves as a clue for the ones one doesn't know.

	?????????

	shefsh4:	May 11th, 2013 at 00:52 GMT		3 points
	my only problem is that after the quiz was over, I couldn't tell which answers were the ones I've missed since the text is in so many different colors (it's not like missed answers show in red and the rest are black.)

	Brilliant quiz...
