First off, an interesting quiz. I like how you've got things from all over the world.
A few requests, please allow more time, I hadn't even finished reading all the hints before time was up.
Next, please can you accept Harbour for Sydney Harbour Bridge, not all of us are American/use American spelling.
Please can you also relax spelling and key words. For example, Pompei, Everest, and the like, as I knew these answers, but was at a loss on how to keys them in. The same goes for Gibraltar in which you've already given us Rock of ____. It didn't make sense to me to retype rock of Gibraltar to get it. Please also work on the clue for Bath, City of ____, does not narrow it down. I started with London, then Manchester and so on. Maybe something like sight of a Roman spa. Thank-you for an interesting quiz.
2. It's Pompidou, not Pompidue.
3. When the hint says "Rock of _____" why can't you just accept Gibraltar instead of having to write "Rock of Gibraltar?
4. Please accept Harbor or Harbour Bridge instead of SYDNEY Harbor Bridge.
5. Please accept Terracotta Army! I was going insane because I knew that I knew it!
6. More time. Thanks.
The aqueduct in France is the "Pont du Gard", to add to the list.
Idk where to start..
You should also accept partial answers (like “St. Basil’s”) and alternatives (I’m amazed anyone would come up with “Florence Cathedral” for the Duomo, for example).
And it’s not “Pizza San Marco,” “Pompidue Center,” “Papel Palace,” or “Rock of Rock of Gibraltar.” Urgh.
