| Great quiz! Technically, Ántonia should be spelled with an accent on the A, though the unaccented version should definitely still be accepted. |

| @Rossipotamus- I must have missed the memo in which 'V' was officially declared a vowel. |

| How about accepting Anadin for the painkiller? Probably you don't have it under that name in the US, but it's extremely well-known over here, especially for the legendary advertising Fail. Slogan: Nothing acts faster than Anadin. Logical response: So take nothing. |

| Just to clear up confusion, could you put 'US Football's Merlin'? Despite being American, I still foolishly managed to assume you meant soccer. |

| Nice! One nitpick: grog is much more strongly associated with navies (especially the British navy) than pirates. |

| For whatever reason that was the easiest quiz I've ever taken. Finished with almost 5 minutes left and only had to pause for emanation. I guess the years of my life wasted working crossword puzzles has finally paid off big time. |

| you should write the 2 word clue as "NUCLEAR reactor requirement" because there are various reactors that do not require fuel rods ( i.e. pharmaceutical batch reactors). only reason i happened to get the answer right is because i've been in school for chemical/nuclear engineering for 6 years... probably not a gimme for most people. |

Nah, I think the lAymen (me) totally think of a nuclear reactor first. I have no clue what a pharmaceutical batch reactor is. I think you schooling made it harder not easier. |

| Two reasons why doing quizzes first thing when I get to work in the morning is bad: 1) I spent about a minute trying to spell Minnesota correctly before realizing that is not the answer for MNTN and 2)I originally read "Type of Crayon" not "Type of Canyon". Maybe I should start drinking coffee... |

| @njlady. Virginia and West Virginia do not fit because they have extra consonants. The letters shown are the ONLY consonants in the answer. |

| Anodyne is not a pain killing drug. It means to be free from pain and can be any source of comfort or relaxation. Taking a Sporcle quiz can be said to have an anodyne effect. |

| Fret not, the 97.9% of you who did not get 'anodyne'. I am a pharmacist, and have been so for over ten years; this quiz is the very first time I have seen that term. |

| I agree about undone, I think it could have a better definition - to me you can undo something you have already done, but not "undo" something as in "not begin" it... |

| "Elysian" is an adjective, the name of the heavenly fields is "Elysium". Perhaps you should modify the clue to "Heavenly, '__ fields'" or something? |
