I agree. The instructions are not clear enough.

Agreed. "Click a Valid Country A-Z"...and then the first thing you're supposed to do is, not click on a country, but click on a letter. That makes no sense.

"In one minute, can you match each letter with the countries that start with it?"...Actually, we're supposed to match the highlighted countries with the letter they all start with.

GREAT idea for a quiz. The instructions, on the other hand....

As stated in response to the comment above, you are supposed to click on countries and select answers with the arrow keys. That's how I initially wanted the quiz to be played. But then it turns out people played it the other way around. I rewrote the description to make it clearer (it seemed clear enough to me but well...) however the title will not change.

Great quiz but it would be better if you didn't have to scroll the letters in the box but rather just be able to see all of the letters at once and click. Sorry if this comment has already been stated.

While that may be possible with some code, it would mess up the keyboard shortcuts and perhaps other things. It's not worth it in my opinion

You can change it in the quiz editor now to two columns without messing up the shortcuts or anything else (as far as I'm aware!). Would look pretty good I think, and be slightly easier to navigate.

Really great quiz but difficult to do on a smartphone in one minute. More time would be helpful (maybe 15 to 30 more seconds) because you have to scroll through the list of letters to select then scroll back up to see what the next batch of countries is, then scroll back all the way down. Wasted maybe 20 seconds with the scrolling alone
