For some wierd reason, it was very difficult to register keystrokes in that table.

Cannot access it from here; the works filter blocks the site and when I use the proxy I have it won't allow me to interact with the site.

I got 31 out of 50
There are few I have not heard of and some that I didn't get are so obvious that I had to give myself one big facepalm.

35 out of 50. I'd have done better but it took me a while to figure out how the thing worked so I ran out of time. Plus I got confused as obviously the answer to question 1 is 'Dirk'. Plus anyone who thinks Audrey Hepburn is the least famous Hepburn needs their head examining.

The world countries is a good one too  I managed over 50% but it was ages ago and can't remember how I did. Although, I think I got most of the office involved too

Yep, that's the one. Weird thing is though that I have to use my internet quota time to get onto the site (at work) but I still can't see the images so I can't do any picture ones

I got 95 on the world one. Missed some obvious ones.
Can't say I've heard of Kiribati or Timor-Leste

Ah, as a regular Sporcler I now know a hell of a lot more of the countries around the world  Regular accurances on Sporcle are all the "stan" countries... Afghanistan, Uzbekistan, Turkmenistan, Tajikistan, Kazakhstan, etc... The ones I really struggle with are the African countries... particularly Western Africa.
