	Not such a great quiz idea and not a particularly good execution.

	markymark:	Dec 4th, 2009 at 00:59 GMT	13 points
	needs at least another minute or two. and you need some alternate answers for some

	wrose31:	Dec 4th, 2009 at 01:45 GMT	7 points
	@ should accept "at symbol", # should accept "pound sign" or "pound symbol" and we need 90-120 seconds, I think.

	Some possible alternates: !: bang %: percentage #: pound sign, number sign (): parens .: decimal point []: square brackets +: addition -: subtraction, minus sign, dash =: equals sign, equality

	a good 2 more mins needed. probably don't need 'sign' after some of the symbols. also # is known as the hash sign/symbol/key and to help uk players you should accept . = full stop ! = exclamation mark = = equals sign also are ( ) not also commonly known as brackets?

	@Jordan117 I've never heard ! as bang before. I'm definitely going to start using that. Now if only I someone to take dictation for me.

	Needs more time

	Catcher3M:	Dec 4th, 2009 at 21:23 GMT	4 points
	needs wayyyy more alternate answers

	rlnintendo:	Dec 4th, 2009 at 23:24 GMT	2 points
	more time, and TONS of alternate answers.ex. pound, u should also accept symbol and sign etc

	if this quiz were a person, the person would be so insipid. You need alternate answers such as "and symbol" for & even though it is rightfully called an ampersand, minus sign for hyphen, etc. IMPROVE THIS QUIZ!(hey look, an exclamation point).

	Niques:	Dec 5th, 2009 at 10:42 GMT	4 points
	You really need to lose the 'sign' on the end of everything. And just to reinforce the point - '!' also equals Exclamation Mark, = is Equals, # is Hash, . is a Full Stop and / really should be specified as a Forward Slash.

	lyricsfreak:	Dec 5th, 2009 at 20:29 GMT	1 point
	# is also a sharp sign.

	Granadog:	Dec 5th, 2009 at 21:09 GMT	2 points
	The pound sign is also called an octothorpe.

	Datazoid:	Dec 6th, 2009 at 04:21 GMT	2 points
	I suggest also accepting "full stop" for a period. Standard usage in the UK and Australia, among other places.

	millionaire1999:	Dec 6th, 2009 at 16:20 GMT	1 point
	Don't worry. I'll add more time to it very soon.

	Many of these should accept alternate answers. - minus sign # hash marks @ at = equals sign / backslash

	mike5816:	Dec 8th, 2009 at 03:12 GMT	1 point
	FYI: The official name of the / symbol is "virgule". And I agree: # is pound sign. Nobody presses the "number sign" on their phones. (ergo... * should be "star sign". Are you a Libra?)

	Lucy:	Dec 8th, 2009 at 23:27 GMT	1 point
	Only Americans call # the pound sign. £ is the actual pound sign and everywhere else calls # the hash key. @Granadog It's not the sharp sign. Sharp sign is slightly different because the horizontal lines are diagonal and the vertical lines are straight, unlike #. Not that any of this actual matters :)

	&: and sign You shouldn't have to type "sign" every time; that gets redundant after a while

	This quiz is pretty bad...but i see where you were going with it. Would be better if it had you name all of the possible names for some of the more contentious symbols. Or better still if it had the percentage of people worldwide who call it different things like the "regional dialects" quiz.

	Well, guys, I've seen your comments. and I gave this quiz some well-deserved improvements! I not only added more time, I also randomized the order of the answers, so that way, the game won't be as repetitive as it used to be. Also, I might change the style soon, because I think that could use some improvements too.

	I think 'pound sign' is the proper name for your 'number sign'. Other than that, great quiz
