World's Largest Rivers (Discharge) - Game Information

Ronald:

Both spellings are used. I added yours in parentheses.

Check the spelling on Irrawaddy.

"Per say?" was I sleeping when I wrote that?

I meant to se "per se".

Er, I mean I meant to SAY, "per se".

That, after correcting a mistake in a clock game incorrectly, and therefore leaving two mistakes.

I must need more sleep!

Nice game - interesting!

I have corrected the errors, replaced the ranks, and brought the number up to 25. Accordingly, I have reset the high scores (sorry).

I used the longest rivers list:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Longest_river

and sorted by discharge. The article on discharge per say is less than satisfactory in its list.

I discovered some problems with the list I used (e.g., the Rio Negro of the Amazon basin was not on the list). Accordingly, I have retitled the thing and deleted the ranks from the clues. I may redo it later if I find better information.
