	This game only really works if you have an American accent.

	I knew a kid named Lee. He always meant what he said, literal Lee... Ok, ok, I admit; that was hyperbol Lee. But I loved this quiz literally, and have literally given it a Curator Pick.

	I tried to make it as global-friendly as possible. Many of them are based on definitions (which doesn't deal with accents), and the ones that are sound-based are, in my opinion, fairly universally understood. I'm sorry your experience wasn't the greatest, Saopaolo, but I hope that it didn't ruin it completely.

	Very nice, skuban. I agree with you that they are all in the range of being fairly universally get-able. I still didn't do very well but that was more of a being-too-slow issue, as opposed to a not-being-American issue.

	i guess christian getting attacked by lions wouldn't be too family friendly huh?

	Haha, @cupcakes that's hilarious. That thought never even occurred to me! Thanks for agreeing with me too, citkeane, it's good to know I'm not the only one who thinks that!

	Fun quiz. I groaned a couple of times.

	Fun little quiz. Nick also works for "watch your stuff if this guy's around" -- though of course Rob wouldn't then work for the shaving clue. But you could avoid the confusion by changing the Rob clue to "He's a stickup artist?" - or some other reference to the threat of violence associated with robbery (which isn't associated with simply "nicking" something).

	I thought Claude lived on a farm, as in a clod of dirt.

	skuban:	Oct 22nd, 2012 at 11:36 GMT		2 points
	@chriskotx, a groan means a successful pun, so I take that as a compliment! Melissa, you are right. I'll change the wording of the Rob clue.

	Moldemort:	Oct 22nd, 2012 at 13:36 GMT		0 points
	I still guessed Nick instead of Rob, and Rich could apply to several others (one who fills cavities - dentists are rich, one who prefers paper money...). Also with an English accent Darren and Daring are not at all similar. Good quiz though!

	I was surprised when Josh didn't work for the "fooling people" clue. In hindsight, Connor is a better fit, but it's a little too close. Perhaps a slightly different worded clue would eliminate the fool.

	skuban:	Oct 22nd, 2012 at 14:45 GMT		2 points
	Thanks for the comments. I see the confusion there, but I feel that each name goes best with the its own clue. Sometimes there's a little ambiguity, but I feel that although they have "maybe" answers, there's only one clue that really fits. That's part of the fun of the game, to determine the best fit for each clue-- and also why the NEXT button is such a handy tool! :)

	I figured "has a really loud voice" could only be Marshall...like the amp. Ah well.

	Mimbleton:	Oct 23rd, 2012 at 13:55 GMT		3 points
	Missed my own name.

	Q_Pheevr:	Oct 28th, 2012 at 03:13 GMT		4 points
	When I saw the clue "He will fix your cavities?" my first thought was to look for a Dennis.

	Saopaolo:	Oct 28th, 2012 at 10:59 GMT		3 points
	Skuban, don't worry it was a good quiz. I just found myself having to put on an American accent when doing it!

	Sackgirl:	Nov 29th, 2012 at 21:43 GMT		1 point
	I think some take a lot of thinking about so you should have more time. Also I thought Nick also fitted Rob's description, as in to nick her purse, as opposed to a paper cut.

	The crowbar clue seems like it could work for rob, like a burglar.
