	Hi everybody! This quiz is (obviously) the sequel to my original, 5, 6, 7 country quiz, so the rules are obviously the same: type in any 8, 8 or 10 lettered countries, then the quiz will tell you if these countries share any letters with the mystery country, in the correct, matching spaces. If no letters are shared in the correct spots, then no bonus answers will show up at all. If you need extra hints, because I appreciate this quiz is quite hard, type in ‘X letter country hint’ replacing the X with 8, 9 or 10 of course! Thanks to Puckett86 for the inspiration, try his four letter words quiz, it's a good quiz, see link above! Good luck all you Sporclers!

	oldkent:	Jun 24th, 2010 at 04:46 GMT	10 points
	Ah, and also, please let me know how much time you think would be suitable for this quiz, and thanks for playing! =)

	I typed "Honduras" in and it said the second letter of the 8-letter country is "O", but the answer was "Cambodia". So Honduras shouldn't give anything.

	Wow, you're right, Tomalak55, rest assured that it has been fixed now! Thanks for picking that up! =)

	Um, I'm not quite sure what you mean, Koopa...

	Sheldon:	Jun 24th, 2010 at 05:19 GMT	23 points
	I think hes suggesting you make a new country called Combadia. Just to add to the collection (Alberia, Serberia, Moracano etc etc)

	oldkent:	Jun 24th, 2010 at 05:25 GMT	12 points
	Hmm. I'll consider that, Sheldon.

	Wow, quick turnaround on the sequel, great work! On your question about time, I used up all 5 minutes on the first quiz and only got 2 right, but took less than 4 minutes on this one to get them all. So much depends on how lucky one is with the first few guesses, but just from my experience you could drop this one down to the same 5 minute timer as the first quiz.

	more please

	'Bangladesh' should work as a clue for the ten letter country (the #2, a). Nice job on this!

	RJMurphy:	Jun 24th, 2010 at 08:39 GMT	6 points
	Got the middle one on first try guess! :O How flukey...

	ThatStarGirl:	Jun 24th, 2010 at 10:54 GMT	2 points
	Got Macedonia on my first try at a 9-letter country :) I love these quizzes, although they do stress me out! One minute less would make it even tougher, it took me about 4 minutes.

	ehrlich:	Jun 24th, 2010 at 13:30 GMT	5 points
	And me, also got Macedonia on my first try. Wonderful quiz. Good job

	nhorne:	Jun 24th, 2010 at 14:35 GMT	3 points
	Needs to accept Pakistan.

	PublicEnemy:	Jun 24th, 2010 at 15:35 GMT	2 points
	fun game. quite a few countries don't show up though.

	MattL1216:	Jun 24th, 2010 at 16:22 GMT	2 points
	I think I would reduce it by a minute down to 4:00. I finished in a minute thirty but that's cuz I got lucky on the 8 letter. Either 3 or 4 minutes should be fine.

	gsa219:	Jun 24th, 2010 at 17:33 GMT	2 points
	Haha, Mauritania was the first thing I typed in You could do with cutting a minute maybe aswell :)

	AdamL:	Jun 24th, 2010 at 17:53 GMT	-3 points
	1:26 - sure that is longer than others though. Anyone break a minute?

	Quinteh:	Jun 24th, 2010 at 18:59 GMT	4 points
	I also noticed Pakistan was missing. I'm sure there are probably some others. Amazing quiz, though it's inevitable that someone comments on the lack of Kyrgyzstan in a country quiz.

	oldkent:	Jun 24th, 2010 at 19:04 GMT	6 points
	Wow, I can't believe I missed Bangladesh and Pakistan, (I feel REALLY stupid now....), but no matter, as it is fixed now, and I send out my apologies to anyone whose 5 minutes was ruined because of my silly mistakes.... I have also reduced the timer to 4 minutes, although it is a hard quiz to set a timer for, really, as you can either get so lucky, or completely miss! Let me know if I have made any more mistakes, whether or not the timer is good as it is, and thanks everybody for playing this quiz! =)

	VickyC:	Jun 24th, 2010 at 19:23 GMT	6 points
	I typed in 'the' (for The Gambia) and a clue popped up for the 8-letter country (which I'd already got): "Is a country in Southeastern Asia, and has internet TLD of .kh". Is this intentional?

	@holey101 and @bumbles I think you both might need to work on counting. They both have 10 letters and an R in 4th (not 5th) spot. I'm guessing Ivory Coast isn't included, because sporcle standard is to use its proper name, Cote D'Ivoire, not the English translation.

	sporcling123:	Jun 24th, 2010 at 23:33 GMT	2 points
	Dear oldkent, these quizzes are extremely fun. please make more!

	Endasil:	Jun 25th, 2010 at 01:10 GMT	3 points
	Lol lucky me, got 8-letter first guess. Actually found this one easier than the 4-5-6 version, since there's less countries to choose from.

	Golden:	Jun 25th, 2010 at 02:24 GMT	3 points
	how abotu a capitals one next

	Fafafooey:	Jun 25th, 2010 at 02:47 GMT	2 points
	got cambodia on my first try. Love the quiz. Do i hear trilogy?

	oldkent:	Jun 25th, 2010 at 04:22 GMT	8 points
	@VickyC: Well, the 'clue' was supposed to appear, but only if you type in 8 letter country hint, so it appears I had accidentally left a gap in their somewhere... So thank you for picking that up, and it's now fixed! Also thanks to everybody else who played the game, I would love to do some more of these quizzes, I just don't want people to think that I'm milking it... So do you think you would be able to forgive me if I made more?

	bmcelwee:	Jun 25th, 2010 at 07:44 GMT	3 points
	such a shame that Kyrgyzstan didn't help at all...

	bumbles:	Jun 25th, 2010 at 08:23 GMT	2 points
	Oops, yes may have made myself look a tad silly there. I was thinking of Cote D'Ivoire but somehow failed to count the number of letters in Mauritania... this is what you get for getting involved in Sporcle about five minutes after you woke up!

	kyll:	Jun 27th, 2010 at 05:27 GMT	3 points
	wow that was great, i finally realized all them in the last minute. make more please!

	Great quizzes! I finished with 24 seconds left, so obviously I would not suggest any more time. Finally, to the comment above mine, I think as long as we know that we are talking about countries and not Greek Provinces, then the two Macedonias won't get confused.

	Yay apart from them all ending in 'ia', love them anyway though lol

	Easily got the first one after first guessing Cameroon. Got the third one after some good trial and error. Got the 2nd one completely by chance.
