Just some advice

Question like 1, 6 and 10 are best avoided, as they can are uninteresting or just guessing games.

You said you want to do alot of Maryland cities, well having to see these questions repeated amongst all of them isn't very interesting.

Cities have so much to talk about, I'm sure you can find better questions then those 3.

Nice changes but it's advisable to not make a question on the thumbnail since it isn't visible on mobile.

Maybe make it 4 pictures and ask which of these is x building

I never knew about the thumbnail absence on mobile, I'll rewrite the MCCQ's I made, since all three include a thumbnail question.
