Actually, JetPunk only counts takes from a single user once. It doesn't matter how many times you take the quiz, it only counts your take the first time.

50/50 with one second left! The trick is to start with the states that start with "ma, no, so, ne, mi" You get rid of a bunch in like 10 seconds.

So I can do this without too much trouble by going through the map, but if I try to go in alphabetical order (by using the song) I'm always missing a few. Curious as to how other people fare comparing the two methods.

It's amazing how many people will attempt a quiz without reading the instructions. Now I understand why so many do poorly on standardized tests such as the SATs; it's not because they are not smart, it's because they refuse to READ THE INSTRUCTIONS!

If you only make 3 guesses you'll get the most bang for your buck with NE, MA, and MI. Good Night, and Good Luck.

I received 5 points for this quiz and had been only one point away from the next level. Why didn't the points add to my score? I have played this quiz many times, is that why?

ander217

Sep 7, 2018

Yes, as stated earlier, no matter how many times you play you can only get a max of five points per quiz. Otherwise some people would find an easy quiz and take it over and over to rack up the points.

For those of us who are not from the USA, stick on an extra 30 seconds will you? It's like me asking the names of all Scottish councils in 30 seconds.
