	OK, first off, that was absolutely brilliant. This is one of the freshest, most unique quizzes I've seen in a long time- I immediately favorited it, and I do NOT favorite many games. You've really outdone yourself, RG. A few dumb little nitpicks: You're missing an "i" in "subscribers" on map 14; map 25 is, for some reason, the only one that isn't labeled (though that's not such a big deal- "Well, I was just on 24... WAIT, THIS ONE DOESN'T HAVE A NUMBER! WHICH MAP COULD IT BE?!"), and you use "Killed by Drought" as a possible answer twice, which I think is the only one that's reused. If you're wondering if these things in any way damage my opinion of the quiz: No. I would happily give it ten billion globes out of five if I could.

	druhutch:	Oct 3rd, 2011 at 05:51 GMT		14 points
	WOW. I agree with Kick^--fun, fresh, and fascinating. I did want to see what the right answers were, but other than that...just brilliant. Those maps are mesmerizing. Seeing the countries shrink and expand. Very cool.

	smartster:	Oct 3rd, 2011 at 06:48 GMT		13 points
	Great Quiz. I'd advise users to turn on the pause button and advance the maps at their own pace using the right arrow. I had major angst while the maps were passing in slideshow mode.

	vinz:	Oct 3rd, 2011 at 12:02 GMT		12 points
	Map 23 is just scary

	Brick_Hithouse:	Oct 3rd, 2011 at 13:03 GMT		3 points
	Great quiz. For map 28 internet users and daily newspapers both have the same code.

	rockgolf:	Oct 3rd, 2011 at 13:13 GMT		5 points
	Thanks @Kicking & @Brick_Hithouse for the corrections. And @Dru, I now indicate the correct description on wrong answers. I figured this quiz would either be a big success with few players or just fail miserably, but I never expected the score it's getting. Thanks to all who rated!

	tiramisucheese:	Oct 3rd, 2011 at 13:22 GMT		4 points
	Wonderful quiz! Just one thing. The clue for map 14 has "municipal" spelled incorrectly.

	rockgolf:	Oct 3rd, 2011 at 13:26 GMT		4 points
	@tirami: Got it! Thanks.

	Dr_Nibbles:	Oct 3rd, 2011 at 15:17 GMT		7 points
	Really nice quiz, does make you see the world in a different light in a lot of ways, absolute favorite and first quiz I recommend to non-sporclers on Facebook :)

	wiggytitch:	Oct 3rd, 2011 at 16:05 GMT		4 points
	Very nice! So much better than my own implementation of worldmapper's data.

	A truly fantastic quiz rockgolf. I rarely favorite games and I almost never nominate them. I did both for this quiz. An instant classic.

	spikethedee:	Oct 3rd, 2011 at 17:56 GMT		4 points
	Really good quiz, just wish it was easier to have the map and the potential answers "in-view" at the same time for the bottom of the columns!

	that_pope:	Oct 3rd, 2011 at 19:46 GMT		3 points
	Really enjoyed this quiz. Each map is a puzzle within itself, trying to see which countries are connected and which aren't, and why, and then also weighting that with their population, etc. I am very proud of scoring 18 out of 20 on this quiz.

	racefan12:	Oct 3rd, 2011 at 20:21 GMT		3 points
	A couple of questions: For map 19, does that reflect only native English speakers (i.e. people who speak English as a first language)? I interpreted "English speakers" as all people who spoke English, and I expected Western Europe in particular to be much higher if that was the answer. Also, should map 27 be "Car Exports to the U.S." (excluding cars exported to any other country)? I find it hard to believe that the U.S. doesn't export any cars to other countries. Other than that, this was an excellent, thought-provoking quiz.

	VogonPoet:	Oct 3rd, 2011 at 20:24 GMT		2 points
	Great quiz, but all the scrolling is annoying. I think using force answer in order could help.

So I'm assuming that when a continent is a line that means they don't have anything there related to the answer? Also Hawaii looks really small compared to the U.S. when the U.S. is really big.

	rockgolf:	Oct 3rd, 2011 at 20:27 GMT		4 points
	@Racefan: The Worldmapper site says "all people who speak English as a first language that live in that territory", so I'll note that. The Car Exports map is "Net" results, so countries that import more cars than they export (including the States) vanish. I'll amend that description too.

	Surely North Korea has more prisoners than they're getting credit for.

	Bowbow:	Oct 3rd, 2011 at 21:15 GMT		3 points
	This is a fantastic quiz. Not only is it original and interesting, it puts many statistics in perspective (particularly map 23). Great job.

	LevellingUp:	Oct 3rd, 2011 at 23:54 GMT		7 points
	Excellent, excellent quiz. You've outdone yourself, sir. One minor suggestion: could you give the years the data encompass? I'm particularly thinking about map 24: earthquake deaths. I was confused by the fact that Haiti was so small. If the data were current, Haiti would be about the same size as China.

	myb555:	Oct 4th, 2011 at 23:21 GMT		2 points
	Absolutely FANTASTIC quiz! I've been on the website before, which was cool, but this quiz multiplied the coolness exponentially! I was even able to get the last one without even needing to look at the choices!

	Fidelio:	Oct 5th, 2011 at 16:24 GMT		2 points
	Is it just me or does Map 23 indicate that India has had as many AIDS deaths as just about any other country? If it does, that really doesn't sound right.

	AdamBishop:	Oct 5th, 2011 at 16:30 GMT		1 point
	For 22 I was torn between alcohol consumption and Roman Catholics. Could have gone either way, really.

	rockgolf:	Oct 6th, 2011 at 14:26 GMT		4 points
	@Fidelio: I took a look at the source data which was from 2002. The incidence of HIV/AIDS in India is fairly low (344 per million) but the population is so large that India has the most deaths from AIDs that year: about 361,000. South Africa was 2nd with 355,000, but the death rate is over 20 times higher (7940 per million). In Botswana, Lesotho, Swaziland and Zimbabwe, the death rates were even higher - from 14,000 to 18,000 per million. In the US, the death rate in 2002 was 45 per million.

	Just adding to the chorus -- great quiz. (And now I have a feeling I'm going to be spending way too much time with Worldmapper...)

	Ulkomaalainen:	Oct 14th, 2011 at 22:54 GMT		2 points
	I feel like I can say nothing new. So I'll tell you something you already know: great quiz.

	purplebackpack89:	Nov 13th, 2011 at 22:18 GMT		2 points
	Great quiz. Was wondering why unltd time; but since it's wrong answer, it doesn't matter. Favorite maps were 26 and 29. Could guess the last one without the choices

	Colmar:	Nov 14th, 2011 at 00:35 GMT		3 points
	It was especially helpful comparing the US and Canada (Prisoners in jail, hydroelectric power.)

	What a great quiz! A TRUE geography quiz.

	Favorited and nominated!

	Dr_Seusss:	Nov 14th, 2011 at 14:36 GMT		3 points
	So, does the United States not exist at all in map 27, since it is a net importer of cars? I sure can't see it on the map!

	BogPoet:	Nov 14th, 2011 at 15:12 GMT		2 points
	Definitely a great quiz! I don't expect to wait a lot until I see this in the front page.
