Just copy and paste the link.
Subtle.
Personally, i think the time is a little long. I had 4:37 left. I think that's plenty of time to just spam a bunch of states rather than trying to get them.
"Is a state."
I suppose that's about the most interesting thing about it...
One suggestion though, since I had to keep scrolling up and down to look at the map and read the questions too.
Maybe it would be possible to have them side-by-side or scrolling separately (?)
is a state.
That's what I have in my mind too.
Just to be clear: I don't actually hate Nebraska (see https://www.jetpunk.com/user-quizzes/252568/the-only-remaining-us-state-2). But I do think its place as the final answer on this quiz has become so iconic that I am hesitant to move it.
