I think that might be why it's called that; their last hope? I could be wrong.

Founder Danny Thomas was a devout catholic, and as a young man, promised to build a shrine to the saint, if he ever became successful.

St John shouldn't be an acceptable answer for the capital of NFLD. St John's is the capital of NFLD and St John is a city in New Brunswick. Two different places.

I agree, there's a lot of confusion between the 2.

Also, Johns isn't acceptable without St or Saint before it, even though St John is. The only one on the quiz that requires St to be typed. It might discourage people who think they're wrong.

I was gonna say exactly the same thing. All the other answers allowed just the other words (ie, the Saint(s) to St or St. part wasn't required). I was beginning to question myself, as o knew it was St John's. Time ran out and I didn't get the point. I also didn't get St Jude, but that's my own fault.

Saint Augustine isn't the oldest city in the US. It is, however, the oldest continually-existing, European-founded city in the mainland US, but that's so many caveats it's hardly an interesting fact.

This is doubly confusing since a city with a more valid claim to that title, San Juan, is also named for a saint and is not accepted as a type-in.

You could clarify it more, but "oldest" implies continuous existence. "Earliest" or "first" would be ambiguous, but I don't think oldest is.

In general, in Jetpunk, especially when talking about something "in" or "part of" a country, territories are excluded. Not always, but this is usually consistent. You're right that it could be somewhat clearer, but San Juan isn't a possible answer because this quiz tests things containing the word "saint," not "named for a saint."

I don't know of a city not founded by Europeans that would fit the definition. Some areas where cities (founded by Europeans) now exist were certainly occupied by native people. Was it a city? Was it the same city? It seems reasonable to me that the Oghá P'o'oge pueblo on the site was considered replaced by Santa Fe, where, say, Tenochtitlan was enough of a city that it was conquered without changing identity. Is that accurate? I suppose it's debatable but the fact is that Santa Fe claims its founding date 1610.
