We make up countries for the competition?! Or real countries? What's the point of fake made up countries? How will they add Donut Dunker Land next season? Clarify please. Dissapointed I already sent my Cuba aplication. :(

Donut Dunker Land produces great coffee, has large sugar plantations, and orange trees. It's a real country.

I'm sorry, but what countries do you think are made up?

It's just a hunch but I think I know what's confusing you: A lot of the countries are listed in the titles used in their own language, not the anglicized version. So for example: Al Jazair is often called Algeria, Magyarország is known in the English speaking world as Hungary and Nippon and Japan are the same place. Maybe I am wrong as to what's confusing you, but it might help if you give us some examples of the countries that are enraging you so much.

I believe he is referring to the contest we are currently running per the News.

NO ONE at this table ordered a rum & Coke
Charles: Penn has some good people
A CT? Really?
Any two will do
Any three for me
Any four will score
Any five are live
