I think there's a glitch. The scoring box says my high score is 538/538, but the box beneath the caveats says it's 238/538 (my correct high score is 238/538). Anyone else having this problem?

Right now, only 4.5% of people can win the election on their first attempt. Would it be worthwhile to add ten seconds to the time and reset the stats? What do you guys think?

When the Quizmaster updates a featured quiz, then he has the option to make the stats reset, usually he avoids it if possible, though.

The thing is that if the stats weren't reset, then it'd be unfair to the people who took it before the reset (you could always just screenshot your stats though; I'm sure you could easily regain the five points if you're concerned about that)

Ohio and NH are short enough to be worth it, maybe Idaho and Kansas too? A chart for points per letter would be nice, but I would recommend Texas, California, New York, Pennsylvania, NH, Ohio, Kansas, Texas, Georgia, Indiana.
