	It's weird what my brain is doing... A . . . A? Argentina... B . . . N? Benin... N . . . A? Narnia... Wow.

	The mental block is even bigger when english isn't your first language

	Sproclitis (n): When you think of Ljubljana before Lima

	this is a tough one. Nice, though.

	I could've done Apia. I can't believe I typed in Addis Ababa instead. I must have some Sporcleitis.

	Love the bonus for Sri Jayawardenapura Kotte.

	@Mirrorboy: depends where you're from. To someone who lives in Europe and has travelled around it a lot, but never been to South America, Ljubljana would be much more obvious than Lima. On which note, it's interesting that almost all the Balkan capitals are answers on this quiz: Ljubljana, Podgorica/Pristina, Sofia, Tirana, Belgrade, Skopje, Sarajevo, Bucharest. The glaring exception is Zagreb!

	was the point of having the total column to make you think of all of them, or how many letters in total there are???

	Fun! And weird because I thought of Tegucigalpa but forgot Vienna.

	Bobman1:	Jun 15th, 2012 at 04:33 GMT		3 points
	Wow, super fun but for me (not the best at international capitals) way way way too little time. I kept thinking of country names, major cities, but capitals.... whew. Quite a stern test. Plenty of times I give up because I clearly cannot get the remaining answers--they're just not hiding in the folds of my brain. Most of what I missed on this quiz was hiding up there, but needed some serious poking to loosen up. Like Chile for example... I had about a dozen possible santa-type names to go through before the right one clicked. By then, too late. Good quiz, though; gives me somethign to shoot for.

	Bandar Seri Begawan instead of Berlin or Bern .... wow. Chronic sporclitis. I'd say incurable.

	WeaselKing1000:	Jun 15th, 2012 at 08:01 GMT		2 points
	@ChicagoGuy88 Not sure if that would count as Sporclitis; I'm pretty sure Addis Ababa is generally better-known than Apia, if much less simple to type.

	ahef1963:	Jun 15th, 2012 at 15:45 GMT		0 points
	Wow - I'm usually good at these sorts of quizzes. This one I've had to add to my favourites as it's going to take much practice to master it. I could not think of a single capital to go with 12 of them.

	Was doing OK until I was thoroughly thrown off by Panama not being accepted...

	OracleLink:	Jun 20th, 2012 at 02:12 GMT		2 points
	I love how the only thing I could think of for B...N was Bandar Seri Begawan. Not Bern. Not even Berlin. Sporclitis much? Lol

	osasunaitor:	Nov 3rd, 2012 at 01:51 GMT		2 points
	You could add this one: K...T. Guess why? The answer is Krungthepmahanakhon Amonrattanakosin Mahintharayutthaya Mahadilokphop Noppharatratchathaniburirom Udomratchaniwetmahasathan Amonphimanawatansathit Sakkathattiyawitsanukamprasit, the official name of Bangkok. It could be fun... Well, maybe not.

	Very good quiz, but there needs to be more time.
