although I was originalIy making the series, I of course have no monopoly on the quizzes Aaron didn't make. I do have to say however, that you are deviating quite a bit from the original quizzes: I saw your yt comment and you should definitely make it more facts based because atp this is just a "100-Q-riddles-that-happen-to-be-cities-quiz". I had already made a list (by hand) of 100 Q cities that I regard a bit more getable as I wasn't aware of you making these quizzes too (and I also saw others already starting aswell) and had already begun, so if you'd like I can send you that one and then you can perhaps update the quiz before Jake plays it.
And are you also planning on making X and W (I already have a list of X as well you could then use), the last remaining letters? I'm perfectly happy if you do since I don't find writing the clues super interesting, but at least then I know I don't have to waste time on it.
