	I'm not blaming you for this, but this has been annoying me for a while and I'm going to say something now - can we stop it with the "get a question wrong and you have to start over" quizzes? I get the idea, but it just ends up being a waste of my time, because I (and I'm guessing most others) keep going back until they get the whole quiz right, so why not just allow people to guess until they get it right?

	@jacksparrow34313: I understand your frustration, but I was just trying out this new style which was recently introduced. Personally, I like it because it forces you to put a lot more time into thinking about each question. Another reason is that fact that allowing people to guess until they get it right would make this quiz go by extremely quickly. Anyway, I can see why it might make you a little annoyed, but if you don't like the style then you don't have to play!

	I have seen quizzes where if you get one wrong, it tells you that you are wrong but you don't lose the quiz and you can move on. I don't know how its done, but after restarting 4 times, i give up on quizzes like this. I hope your last 3 questions aren't too interesting, cause I will never see them.

	Ok, since it seems the original format is not being received well, I have changed the quiz so that certain answers are still wrong, but they will no longer end the quiz. I hope you guys like this version better!

	Much better this way, yes. Having to answer in order was possibly still unnecessary, but not all that annoying all things considered.

	I've never seen a quiz like this before! If you get the answer wrong it shows as wrong and you go to the next one! Awesome! For a moment there I thought it was incredible that I was getting every single one right first try.

	I think you have your "wrong answers" clued as: [question] \| b \| [question] \| a \| ee [question] \| c \| ee [question] \| d \| ee (Sample where "b" is the right answer) That's fine, but it's hard to tell because of brevity of the answer and lack of color which answers were wrong. You can make that more apparent by coding like this: [question] \| b [question] \| X / a / c / d \| ee You only need one line to identify all wrong answers, and instead of repeating the answer, you display a capital "X".

	@rockgolf: Thanks for the great suggestion, I hope this works better for everyone.

	Nice work dude. I like this format a lot more! 5/5

	cocky:	May 5th, 2011 at 12:53 GMT		9 points
	Love the format. I have never heard of a Civil War Battle of Caryhage. That was my answer because I was thinking of the Carthage battles from 2,000 years ago.

	rockgolf:	May 5th, 2011 at 13:00 GMT		5 points
	@Quizace: Glad it worked. One other question: Do you have the "wrong answers" on the line immediately below each right answers? [question 1] \| b \| [question 1] \| X / a / c/ d \| ee [question 2] \| a \| [question 2] \| X / b / c/ d \| ee Reason I'm asking is that when I display stats, several of my answers aren't appearing. When this has happened on my quizzes, I move all the "ee" answers to the end of the data (below any correct answers) and the problem clears up.

	@rockgolf: Thanks again! Yes, you were right in that I had the wrong answers after each right answer. I changed it to what you suggested and the results seem to be working better now. Once again, thanks for the help.

	@Quizace: Excellent. The only reason I know these things is from having the same problems myself.

	Much better format....having the quiz end when you get one wrong is just silly.

	Kinderby:	May 5th, 2011 at 20:35 GMT		1 point
	Too US-centric! :) I, too, like that you can get an answer wrong and keep going through the quiz.

	wow around question 6 i started guessing at most and made it to 13 before i got one wrong...guess im gonna go get a lottery ticket...

	Pershing's final rank was a five star general

	Anyone else feel a bit misled by the name of this quiz?

	Really liked the setup of this quiz. Make more please!

	Puerto Rico threw me for a loop. I thought commonwealths were distinct from territories, but wikipedia lists it as an "unincorporated organized territory". Very enjoyable quiz, I like the format.

	@ghunter51: Wasn't he a six-star general?

	quizace:	May 10th, 2011 at 21:46 GMT		1 point
	@ghunter51 and @nymets18: John J. Pershing was promoted in 1919 to the rank of General of the Armies, the highest possible officer rank of the United States Army. It is the equivalent of a gold four-star general. Needless to say, Pershing was a four-star general prior to that, so he was still a regular four-star general at one point as well.

	I clicked on the quiz hoping for one involving no american history :P oh well though, it was a great quiz anyway :) I would like if it told you what the actual answer is though, instead of just "X". That way I could learn something

	I have 5 bills with Ronald Reagan on them to trade with 17% of the people who took this quiz. Maybe for 10 Ben Franklins. That seems fair.
