| This is pointless without having to go in some order. |

| And what order would you suggest? Why should it have to go in order? Have you played the state-capital game that is currently on the front page? That isn't in any kind of order. |

| Just used this to study, wonderful tool. Thank you. The lack of order is what made it so great, you can't just remember an order. |

| Agree with Xolotl123, could do with more time for us non-Americans |

| For MN could you add the full name of the city as an alternate to the abbreviated version? |

| I made it in the time, but I'm a very good typist. All you are testing here is whether people have them in immediate memory. Add another minute or two (or even double the time) to give a fair shot to poor typists and to people who want to think about their answers instead of just being frustrated. |

| Since it's been published to the home page, only the Sporcle admins can make changes. Maybe they'll consider what you've said. :) |

| I need a mnemonic for Olympia and Pierre. I always forget those two. |

| One of these days I'll remember that there's a C in Bismarck. Maybe. |

| @LisaSimpsonOH: not being from the US, I usually got both Dakotas mixed up. Now I use this mnemonic rule: Pierre is a French name, Bismarck a German one. On the average, Germany is north of France. So Bismarck is ND and Pierre SD. |

| That was a good challenge. I just ran out of time - as a Brit it took me a little while to decide which states some of the abbreviations refe to. I do know all of the state capitals but putting them together with the abbreviations was tricky. Good fun! |
