	No, it's 7. It's just that in creating this quiz, I reached 7z and needed more answers. The question number is indicated by the # on the left.

	Good job. Creative!

	Thanks! It took me several hours to make and test it, so I hope it's successful.

	@jiggster318: Try it again. I tested each state, so it should work.

	kristen58:	Mar 7th, 2010 at 05:41 GMT	21 points
	@jiggerster318: Washington works fine, I just did that one. You must have answered something wrong. Anyway....Awesome idea for a quiz, very clever. I wish, however, that all the questions weren't about letters. It would be nice if maybe it could be a bit of a variety--some about letters, maybe some about region, like is it on the east coast, etc.

	Pennsylvania, very nice.

	The point of divergence in the sequence of questions between Washington and Iowa is the question "Does it contain an S?" Make sure you reply Yes to this question if your state is Washington. Texas and Washington diverge at the question "Does it end in A or N?" Make sure you reply No to this question if your state is Texas.

	@leob: That may be because you typed a different answer than the two offered for one of the questions. I had to design this quiz with 49 hidden questions, each of which (after the first) is prompted by a particular answer (3a, 4g, 6r, etc.), as are the states. So if you don't follow the question and answer sequence exactly, you may prompt additional questions. Actually, if you know the final answer which prompts your state, you can just type that in from the start and it will just tell you the state. For instance, after typing Go, type 8L and you'll go right to Hawaii, bypassing all the other questions. But where's the fun in that? ^_^

	Before you say that doesn't work, just give it another shot and make sure you've read and answered all the questions carefully. I guarantee you 100% that it works for every state.

	Quiz is working fine for me.

	RetroGirl:	Mar 7th, 2010 at 07:35 GMT	7 points

	My bad. I complained about getting the wrong answer. For fun I tried another state and it worked just fine. It also gave me a vital clue. In my original attempt I got so used to typing an a or b in each answer that I did it automatically for every question (just using the new number plus a or b). Now I have seen that the last question asked of me switched from only a or b to an h. That made all the difference!

	nashpaul, I tried Virginia and got Indiana too, BUT when I did it a second time and paid really close attention to which letter I had to type, it showed Virginia. Try it-it goes from a, b following the numbers to a sudden switch to a d

	This is neat!

	@Asdfaeou I tried Mass and got the same result

	I tried Minnesota and it worked correctly. I think this quiz requires a lot of careful looking to see which letter follows any of the numerals.

	bigsoxfan: You must have answered "Yes" for the question asking if it ENDS with an A or N. Don't just look at the letters, read the questions.
