Thanks! I'll try to do a few more indeed. Also, thanks for the early spotlight (I guess that's from you).

It was me, yes... Honestly, I wish I could nominate/spotlight the whole series in one go rather than each quiz individually, but that's not something Jetpunk offers yet.

By the way, during the past few monthes I have thought to myself several times that the next three quizzes in the series would probably be Greece, Egypt and India, I'm glad I got at least two out of three right and I'm still hoping for the third :D

Could we get a bit more generous spelling options on Sundarbans? I was stuck on Sundurbans for a long time.
