I encountered a trivia question with a spelling error, is there anyway to report it?

Also is there any way to submit your own questions?

Was this about the government classifications that the game assigns? Because one of those is "Capitalizt" with a "z."

No there actually was an Issues Editor who's title was Issues Editro. Obviously not gonna say who so I don't spoil the answer for anyone who reads this but yeah that's not a typo, just an example of NS staff being silly.

Can we post other errors here?

Who was the overall winner of the April 2005 Game Mod Olympics

There were no Olympics in April. They were on February 4, not April 2. V’s repost of previous events, she posted them in day-month-year format and not month-day-year format. I’d link to the evidence but that would give away the answer.

In 2016, Edward Rump ran against which candidate for the position of World Assembly General-Secretary?

One of the trivia questions that I have recieved, copied verbatim. The election was, in fact, for the position of WA Secretary-General.

Nice catch. Fixed, using a dd-Month-yyyy format, which will hopefully avoid confusion.

Unless the question is supposed to be phrased as 'which nation now known as Unibot III' founded (REDACTED) then it was actually Unibot II that technically founded it

For this question: This is a game for good people (or it was meant to be). But we are also self-destructive and that's why we created this mini-game.

One of the options has an erroneous space in the name NationStates, spelling it as Nation States.

Corrected both. And, let’s keep this thread as spoiler-free as possible, please. Thanks.

What is the highest level reached in the Challenge Game Top 100?

I checked the list and entered the correct answer but it was marked wrong. I bet someone played a challenge and their level changed.

I think the culprit is the nation ranked #101, which may have dropped out of the top 100. I’ll figure something out.

EDIT: Made it the top 120.

The question about the five millionth nation says it was founded on Valentine's Day. The five millionth nation was founded on January 20th, 2017. The news post about it was on Valentine's day.
