	Great concept but a bit too hard IMO

	I didn't think it was too hard (even though I only got 7 right), and I think it was a clever idea. You might want to also accept Micronesia for "a revealing skirt," since super-short miniskirts are called micro skirts.

	Great job, and learned a new word while playing too ('austral'). I think that it would be more accurate to say that 'Hell' is the primary locale in Dante's 'Inferno', but not the entire 'Comedy'. It's set in three main locales after all. That's all. Again, great job. :)

	Possibly have Micronesia (for micro) as an alternative for Dominica / Dominican Republic. Or alter the clue to avoid micro as an potential answer.

	Great idea... bit hard though.

	Great idea but really too hard!! But that's fine.

	who's Micro-Me?

	mybeaglebelle:	Dec 27th, 2009 at 19:13 GMT		-1 points
	The 3rd clue is confusing. I was thinking "Street? Avenue? Circle?"

	Great idea, nice quiz--and definitely NOT too hard. Unless there's a "micro-me," don't accept micro. Come up with more countries, especially ones where the inner word is less noticeable--the SOFA in United States of America, for instance. Some great, elliptical clues here. But I'd go for words that don't connect with the country's etymology. E.g., don't use ROMAN for Romania--use "MANIA". (Same with "AUSTRAL" for Australia.)

	Absolutely love this one - definitely a challenge, but not impossibly hard. Creating a "part two" of this quiz would be great - I think 15 at a time is about the right number.

	Great other than saying a 'baton' could be called a 'wand'!

Comment below threshold: show it

	I wouldn't say that this is copied. This has an added component.

	chriswren96: you shouldn't accuse others of stealing your ideas. There are many quizzes on this website that copy another person's idea, but you don't see them babbling on about their ideas supposedly being stolen. Nice try.

	Crescendo_Ampio:	Dec 28th, 2009 at 03:07 GMT		2 points
	@chriswren96 It could be he thought of this without even seeing your quiz. It's not unthinkable that two people could think of similar ideas, and at any rate, this is quiz is way different from yours in that it makes you guess the word instead of giving it to you. So even if he saw your quiz, he didn't just copy it, he liked your idea so much he added on to it. You should be flattered. =)

	@chriswern96: I had never seen your quiz before this, and I apologize for belittling it.

	I'd second DecoFloorLamp's comment--since "Romania" and "Australia" come from Roman and Austral, respectively, they're not the most interesting choices. (Similarly, the fact that "port", the wine, is named for Portugal.)

	rentageek_sc1:	Dec 31st, 2009 at 16:08 GMT		3 points
	Some of the clues are a bit tough - I think the emphasis should be on thinking of a country with the word in it, rather than trying to think of the word from the clue, but maybe that's just me. For example, the China clue makes no sense to me, but I would have got China if I'd got chin.

	Great quiz!
