Is this supposed to be a trap? Whether or not God puts folk in different categories is beside the point, isn't it?
My answer stands.
It's a very major trap. It's not that they wouldn't know what they did was wrong. It's they wouldn't have the remedy to that wrong, the gospel. If God leaves them without the remedy to their sin, how could he judge them to hell?
Then again, if I'm right and they had the possibility of not sinning, but God left them without the help of Christ in overcoming their sins, then I suppose they would also have some right to claim injustice if they were sentenced to hell.

Sounds like to me, if your bolded statement is correct, we had better stop sending missionaries overseas. We had better stop preaching the gospel period. We're effectively sending people to hell unnecessarily! Let them all live on in their ignorance and lack of knowledge, so that they may have their cake and eat it too...in heaven?

Your logic is perfect.

This reminds me of another hypothetical conundrum a friend asked me one day. He said, "Is it possible for God to create a rock so big and heavy, that he would be unable to lift it up?"

I have an answer. It's not impossible at all God cannot create a rock so heavy that he can't lift it. All rocks after creation are finite and God is infinite. The infinite is always greater than the finite

jfroggy, I think Timmy was trying to nudge you for saying that God cannot do something, according to your answer.
