Good thing I steered clear of Austin and Annapolis after all. But curses about Boise and Bismark!

BONUS ANSWERS jabberwocky December 9 2005, 16:27:48 UTC
I'm answering based on the assumption that state names aren't necessary!

1) Charleston

2) Montpelier

3) Pierre

4) Bismark

5) Olympia

6) St. Paul

7) Frankfort

8) Hartford

9) Springfield

10) Boise

I was debating putting "Annapolis" and "Carson City" down, and at various times had "Austin" and "Columbus" actually typed out...I tried in many cases (but not exclusively) to pick states where the capital is a relatively small city and other larger more well-known cities exist within the state. Obviously a shitload of states/Capitals fall into this category. Seemed like an obvious strategy...

ZERO POINTS, you should have KNOWN to put the states. Good strategy. I like this round because it's one of those where anyone could really come out on top!
