Korn2800 : Mar 16th, 2013 at 04:38 GMT 16 points These instructions are not real clear
Sanky : Mar 16th, 2013 at 14:50 GMT -1 points How is Hoover not a president?
CoachWall : Mar 16th, 2013 at 21:46 GMT 3 points I agree with the previous comments that your instructions are not crystal clear. Make it obvious you are looking for a President AND a baseball Hall of Famer who share the same last name. In addition, you should state how your Hall of Fame players are inducted. In 2009, Uleyses F. Grant was inducted by the Negro Leagues committee, which now makes your count 6.
Etheridge2 : Mar 16th, 2013 at 21:48 GMT 1 point Hoover is a president but not a Baseball Hall of Famer and for this quiz they need to be both. This is a really nice idea, but poorly executed. For example Ulysses S. Grant is a former US President and Frank Grant a former Negro Leaguer who was inducted into the Hall of Fame in 2006. The 5 answers the quizmaker is looking for are Ford (Whitey/Gerald), Jackson (Andrew/Reggie), Wilson (Woodrow/Hack), Johnson (Lyndon/Walter), and Carter (Gary/Jimmy) There are other people with those names who would qualify as well.

jsparkyp : Mar 16th, 2013 at 23:02 GMT -2 points The quizwriter speaks: Thanks for the input, one and all. I have made amendments to the introduction to hopefully clarify things more.
AHK : Mar 18th, 2013 at 08:10 GMT 1 point not having taken it earlier, i can say that this quiz seems to be high quality to me. time was just right even though i ran out.
NoPepper : Mar 28th, 2013 at 18:21 GMT 2 points Neat idea - but no need for the minefield at all.
airborne79 : Apr 5th, 2013 at 01:05 GMT 1 point Decent idea...poorly executed. Need to increase time to at least a minute, remove the minefield, and add all Hall of Famer's, to include Negro Leaguers like Frank Grant.
