	I did WAY better than I expected.

	Great idea! I like your selection of stations -- enough to give good hints for ones we might not know immediately, but not enough to take away all the challenge. Here's hoping your publication roll continues. :)

	Great quiz - I relied a lot on history and languages. San Francisco totally fooled me...I probably typed every Central American capital I could think of because of the Castro clue. Oh well, nice to see T.O. made the list - I was on it today!

	Agreed that "Avienda" should be "Avenida". Bloor-Yonge threw me off because it sounded Dutch to me, haha. Great quiz though, quite enjoyable.

	@JohnnyBarman yeah it's named after José Castro, a Mexican governor of California (pre-annexation by the US).

	Good job - reminds me of a similar one I did based on streets. I think you selected a very good range.

	I slightly disagree with Esme. I think that "Times Square", "Smithsonian" and "Tiananmen" are a little too easy - otherwise good idea and great quiz :)

	What about Glasgow's "Clockwork Orange"? Its the third oldest underground in the world

	@Onno: Harbourfront is a relatively new station, as it's on the North-East Line, which only opened in 2003. Choa Chu Kang is in the middle of nowhere, so you probably wouldn't have heard of it if you weren't there for a long time. Dhoby Ghaut is one of the oldest stations in Singapore, right on Orchard Road, but is only becoming more important now that it's an interchange for the North-South, North-East and Circle lines

	Got all but 2! Great quiz. Singapore and Buenos Aires tricked me.

	Knew washington because of Fallout 3 :D Great quiz, keep up the good work!

	There's got to be better clues than "Hauptbahnhof" for Munich, practically every German city has a Hauptbahnhof.

	weizenugb:	Feb 24th, 2010 at 14:02 GMT		9 points
	Really amazing quiz!! I don't mind the "Hauptbahnhof" for Munich. It's true that practically every German city has one (it just means "main station"), but the clue simply tips you off to the fact it's a German city, and you can use the others to narrow it down. I like it. Great quiz (and good city selection)!

	Did "Avenida De América" throw anyone else off? I was expecting a city in the Americas.

	@Astmakameli: You should have seen our metro center station when Fallout 3 came out. Every flat surface had an ad for the game.

	It's "Avenida de Mayo", great quiz ;)

	Great quiz, but Castro actually isn't a stop on San Francisco's BART. It stops in the district, but the station isn't called Castro. Although I suppose "24 St Mission" wouldn't help much.

	Mornington Crescent!

	Having also been to Singapore (my baggage claim to SIN is still a prized possession), I got it based on the languages, not the stations. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think those are one each of the three major languages of the country.

	Castro's Aide #1: But presidente, America tried to kill you! Fidel Castro: Ah, they're not so bad. They even named a street after me in San Francisco! [Aide #2 whispers something into his ear] Fidel Castro: It's full of what?

	Is it me, or are the NYC station names kinda boring. I mean not the ones on the quiz, but the station names as a whole. compared to London (e.g. Elephant & Castle), or Paris (e.g. Stalingrad), 34th St or 59th St just sounds boring. Good Quiz BTW

	jcb9:	Feb 24th, 2010 at 18:21 GMT		0 points
	Looks like this has already been pointed out, but there's no Castro station in San Francisco - either on BART or on the Muni Metro system.
