	Right now it's impossible to get Kansas / Laos wrong.

	Fun quiz! It seems that entering Kentucky doesn't do anything though. The main thing I can think of to speed up the answering process is if you forced answers in order, then allowed us to answer "S" for State or "C" for Country for each pairing. Then you could even include the obligatory Georgia vs. Georgia comparison ;)

	naqwerty3:	Apr 13th, 2013 at 23:21 GMT		7 points
	Ellix, I was planning to do that, but I am wondering if people would complain that you type an S for California or a C for Senegal. That is a suggestion I've been debating for a long time! Thanks!

	alien1011:	Apr 23rd, 2013 at 15:44 GMT		7 points
	If you force answers in order, you can have S for state and C for country. As long as California and Senegal are far enough along, people will be used to the S or C options.

	marpocky:	Apr 23rd, 2013 at 16:31 GMT		13 points
	I second the suggestion to match up Georgia and Georgia.

	beforever:	Apr 26th, 2013 at 01:32 GMT		4 points
	Alternatively, you could also just not include any confusing match-ups that have states beginning with 'C' and countries starting with 'S'. That, to me, seems like the simplest solution.

	Ubbiebubbie:	Apr 26th, 2013 at 01:35 GMT		4 points
	^ Yes. And as a lazy person by nature, I would much rather type "S" or "C" than actually having to type out the state or country name.

	So, what I learn from this quiz is that Europe is pretty small.

	aero_zeppelin:	Apr 26th, 2013 at 20:11 GMT		5 points
	I think the format is fine, although perhaps having a next/previous clickable option would help keep track of things

	Purple_Parrot:	May 1st, 2013 at 20:52 GMT		6 points
	And here I thought that one match-up was going to be Russia vs. Rhode Island...

	merzaj:	May 21st, 2013 at 15:33 GMT		5 points
	this really puts things in perspective. What a fun quiz! 5 globes

	Captain_Dave:	May 21st, 2013 at 16:21 GMT		4 points
	Great quiz! Especially as maps of the world are so distorted towards the poles it makes a number of places appear bigger than they really are. 5 globes!

	mrsmith:	May 21st, 2013 at 19:51 GMT		2 points
	V good. 5 globes from me.

	Acid_Snow:	May 21st, 2013 at 22:44 GMT		2 points
	Great quiz. Think globally, as in spherically! (Also, if Bangladesh were even smaller than Arkansas, how would so many fit there?)

	kgm86:	May 22nd, 2013 at 00:30 GMT		1 point
	Somehow I missed all the questions involving places where I've lived.

	packmanwiscy:	May 22nd, 2013 at 22:31 GMT		2 points
	now we need a sequel, maybe with which one is smaller.

	osasunaitor:	May 22nd, 2013 at 23:07 GMT		2 points
	D'oh, I really thought that US states were bigger... Damn Mercator Projection...
