It goes without saying that without shows like Jeopardy! paving the way, Sporcle would not exist. Rest in peace, Alex, and thank you for the last 36 years.
Our staff and moderators have just completed an update to about 500 quizzes, the Presidential Plunge badge, and our blog as a result of today's inauguration -- all in under 4 hours. We're incredibly lucky to have a team dedicated to accuracy and speedy updates. Thank you, team!

Someone puts a blank map of the USA in front of you. Says you have a chance to win up to $50 million: $1 million for every state you can correctly identify.
The catch: if you get one wrong, you get nothing, but you can leave blanks.
How much money you making?
Geography tip of the day: There are 6 countries of the world that begin with K and they all have a different vowel as their second letter (Kazakhstan, Kenya, Kiribati, Kosovo, Kuwait, Kyrgyzstan).

Hello Sporcleverse! I'm Mark Adams and I get to steer this Twitter ship this week. I was the founder of a live trivia business back in 2009, that today has become Sporcle Events. Today, I'm the VP of Marketing here at Sporcle. Let's go!
Do you ever feel like Sporcle only asks 'can you name the countries of the world?' but never stops to ask 'how are you doing?' Well, now we're asking: how are you doing?

I’m p sure I get kicked off this account at midnight so I just wanted to say a huge thank you to Sporcle for giving me full freedom to run with it and have fun. Play some quizzes, they’re a blast, then follow me
@juicewag
for more bad jokes and antics. Peace!
Nothing beats waking up at 3 AM because your brain goes 'you forgot to wrap things up on the Sporcle twitter!' So thanks everyone for reading my nonsense the last week!
Proud dad moment the other day when my kindergartner played his first Sporcle quiz. He woke up the next morning and asked for more. It was just a Minecraft quiz, but I love his quest for validating his knowledge.

First up today was our badge meeting -- for those that don't know, I run the bi-weekly badge meeting and discuss upcoming plans, criteria, and art. Here's (most) of the team (one other member is out and another is in redesign meetings until the heat death of the universe).
We’re super excited that Sporcle Party is the Game of the Day in the Apple Store! If you’ve got a smartphone, we want YOU to become a Party Animal with us!

Thanks for indulging me this week. Hope you had a beautiful weekend. And hope to meet some of you in person at SporcleCon. A new guest takes over tomorrow. Sporcle on!
I'm going to recommend five quizzes in the next hour for your playing pleasure - all of them published, and all favorites of mine, with some brief explanations as to the why and how.
Today at the office, we're listening to Parks and Recollection with
@alanyang
