Please stop accepting Pittsburgh without the 'h' at the end. In every quiz, the next thing I type after Pittsburgh is always misspelled with an extra h at the beginning.
LOL the things people complain about! I see a lot of posts for requests to accept certain spellings. I think this is the first one I've seen asking to reject one.
After you type in Pittsburg you should see that Pittsburgh comes up. Either you guys get paranoid over such small details, have OCD, or should probably learn how to type without looking at your keyboard. Trust me, it's not too hard. @Jerry928 . A poll sounds like a nice idea, but, can't you see, everyone's gonna choose the Pittsburgh option, with an H. @Quizmaster . Has anyone ever mentioned that to you? I'm not sure why anyone would type in Pittsburg, anyway. @buck1017 . Even if the spelling was Pittsburg until 1911, no one should be spelling it that way. Why would there even be an 104 year old (no, older, cause you have to add the number of years it took them to find JetPunk!) playing this site? Seriously, that's just unrealistic. Also, none of those towns/cities you've mentioned even qualify, and are totally unrelated to the subject. Do the spellings of many towns/cities in other states have to impact the way that Pennsylvania spells their Pittsburgh? No.
Just a correction to the point about Pittsburgh being spelled without the 'H' until 1911: The city was founded as Pittsburgh, and remained spelt that way until in 1890 when the US Board on Geographic Names decided to remove the 'H' from all cities ending in -burgh. So, yes, it spent 21 years misspelled, but it had an 'H' at the end from the beginning.
And I'd never heard of either one of them even though we had children living in Arizona and Texas and visited them quite often. Suburbs often bring me down on these quizzes.
I got 18 which I thought was really good (no idea where I pulled Pembroke Pines from, must have seen it when I was in Miami or when I took this quiz before), still only worth 4 points though. Tough quiz.
