Taking this again, I noticed "DC" and "Sucre" don't work. :)

I just took a day trip to DC and I swear no one, visitors or locals, calls the place "Washington". It can pretty confusing with the state! What surprises me most, though, is that even though we were in the area, and everyone knew exactly which "Washington" was being talked about, everybody used the term "DC" or the rare "Washington, DC".

JetPunk is run by how the locals speak of a term. For example, Guatemala is accepted for Guatemala City because (according to Dan) people say "Guatemala" and rarely does one hear someone add the "city" part to it. 'The contrary, Panama City is only occasionally referred to by Panamanians. All I'm saying is you should add "DC" as a type-in. Simple as that. Don't even have to show it on the design!

Hope you take the suggestion,

I took them twice with both one mistake. I both missed Antananarivo and I dont know why. Then I noticed I kept on typing Antanarivo.

Wow, as of this posting, Ngerulmud is the only one under 50%. Koror would have been a lot easier to memorize - for the sake of quiz takers everywhere, maybe Palau can move it back? :)

I can't believe I forgot Buenos Aires! I would have gotten all of the South American ones if I had just remembered it! I think I was just over thinking a little.

Google maps says it's not Gitega and it's Bujumbura for Burundi

I just checked googlemaps and it says Gitega is the capital. Try googling "Gitega new capital" and you'll see several other articles confirming this.

I like this. Can't believe I haven't come across this one yet. Only complaint I have is that there needs to be consistency with the "City" capitals. Either take them all without, or make us type them all. I prefer the former...
