	The goal of the game is to guess the President I am describing. There are up to 8 hints that can be given by typing in any number 1-8 into the answer box. Hint 1 will help you the least, Hint 8 the most, and everything in between responds accordingly. If you have any problems tell me.

	I like the idea of the quiz. I would suggest maybe making clue 2 come later in the quiz though.

	JezuzFingerz:	Oct 5th, 2009 at 21:23 GMT	1 point
	Ok, I think I'll switch it with 4. Unless the Sporcle community really knows their Presidential birth places.

	davebesag:	Oct 5th, 2009 at 21:43 GMT	5 points
	I'd consider shortening the time to 1 minute. In 2 minutes you could type in every President.

	I don't think 8 helps as much as you say it will. Funny though

	tscheno2:	Oct 6th, 2009 at 00:17 GMT	1 point
	4 helps more than 5 imho.

	JezuzFingerz:	Oct 6th, 2009 at 01:50 GMT	1 point
	snowman888 and tscheno2: It all comes down to how you remember your presidents. I remember Taft from the US President posters at school and how he was so overweight. I guess its all a matter of opinion

	frey553:	Oct 6th, 2009 at 03:56 GMT	2 points
	Haha this reminds me of high school where he was invariably referred to as Big Daddy Taft.

	got it on 6, and 8 is the giveaway

	cocky:	Oct 6th, 2009 at 04:40 GMT	3 points
	Got it on the second hint. The Tafts are associated with Ohio. The Chief Justice clue should be further down the list.

	awesnap:	Oct 6th, 2009 at 05:07 GMT	-1 points
	I got it on one. Just listing the Republicans in order until I got there.

	awesnap: that's no fun

	What an awesome idea for a quiz! That's thinking outside the box (no pun intended). Now I need to think of something Tolkieny with which I can do this.

	DPerrone99:	Oct 6th, 2009 at 16:56 GMT	1 point
	Love the idea. Unfortunately I didn't read the 'hint' description until after. Still, I guessed Taft randomly (after Clinton, Roosevelt, Bush, Pierce, and JFK).

	JezuzFingerz:	Oct 6th, 2009 at 23:19 GMT	3 points
	Thanks for the comments. Sequel coming in the next couple days.

	Tesla:	Oct 7th, 2009 at 00:19 GMT	1 point
	Excellent quiz idea. I'll be awaiting the sequel

	Unidentifiedkiwi:	Oct 7th, 2009 at 03:57 GMT	1 point
	I got it pretty quickly with only clue #5... hey, he had an awesome 'stache!

	JezuzFingerz:	Oct 7th, 2009 at 04:03 GMT	3 points
	I know. More presidents should have moustaches now a'days.

Comment below threshold: show it

	BankofClarity:	Oct 8th, 2009 at 22:38 GMT	1 point
	holy ****. got it in 2.

	ElDavo:	Oct 13th, 2009 at 00:28 GMT	1 point
	I feel like you could put 5 earlier. I love the idea already, and this is just one opinion, but I didn't find that clue to be as helpful as some of the ones before it.

	JezuzFingerz:	Oct 13th, 2009 at 02:06 GMT	2 points
	Everyone has their one way of remembering presidents so the order of the hints is very opinionated. I remember my Presidents largely by appearance which is probably why #5 is where it is.

	NHJ:	Oct 14th, 2009 at 09:57 GMT	1 point
	'Cause you can't sneak None of it past William Howard Taft http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X6MsGsNkFqI

	LeGrandFromage9:	Oct 15th, 2009 at 20:52 GMT	-2 points
	i didnt get a single clue from typing in about 15 presidents

	JezuzFingerz:	Oct 15th, 2009 at 22:48 GMT	2 points
	^^^did you read the directions?

	brmistkrieg:	Oct 16th, 2009 at 22:14 GMT	1 point
	Taft is the only US president to also serve on the Supreme Court. That clue alone would have done the trick for me.

	CasonS:	Oct 18th, 2009 at 16:00 GMT	1 point
	i got this quiz by #4 with 50 seconds to spare. good idea keep up the good work kido.

	mrt23498:	Oct 19th, 2009 at 19:04 GMT	-4 points
	too hard, couldn't get Taft with 8 clues in front of me. anyway i dont believe in the USA

	csl:	Oct 22nd, 2009 at 16:02 GMT	1 point
	Good idea for a quiz. I think it might be more fun if no misses were allowed, though.

	JezuzFingerz:	Oct 22nd, 2009 at 19:05 GMT	1 point
	@csl I don't think that's possible. But it would be a great feature.

	Osprey39:	Oct 27th, 2009 at 08:16 GMT	0 points
	I think your clues are too easy. Taft was the first thing to spring to my mind as soon as I knew he was a Republican from Ohio. Maybe describe events that happened during his tenure? Or make the clues much less direct.

	Kuzybus:	Nov 29th, 2009 at 02:07 GMT	1 point
	Holy Crap I got it as my first guess!

	chrisb42:	Dec 16th, 2009 at 05:17 GMT	1 point
	clue 9 should be: my anagrammatical street name is t-fat.

	31195:	Jan 8th, 2010 at 21:28 GMT	1 point
	Maybe you could give hints like "warm" or "cold" (in terms of when the president was in office).

	SlowHandEC88:	May 2nd, 2010 at 04:54 GMT	1 point
	I don't know why, but Taft was the first president I guessed after seeing clue #1, so I finished this quiz in 3 seconds.

	sobdennis:	Nov 9th, 2010 at 08:10 GMT	1 point
	I think it would be better if we had to start with number 1 and get the next one if we missed it on that one. On both your quizzes, I read the instructions and said "Ok I'll start with number 8." Of course I got it right away.
