	why do you have to type "lady" in front of jane grey to get it right? I tried typing "jane grey" so many times! can you add this as an alternate please?

	You need to accept more alternative answers. I shouldn't have to type in Elizabeth I, you should take just Elizabeth or take Elizabeth 1 at the very least. Same thing for Elizabeth II. I should be able to type Mary Tudor for Mary I, or Mary 1. You need to accept just Jane Grey, not Lady Jane Grey.

	Yet again confusion over Britain/England, I realise you do quote a source but it too is wrong!

	I don't get the issue over using 1,2,3 etc over roman numerals. Roman numerals are convention for royals so it's instinctive to use them. I suppose it doesn't hurt to include them as an alternative though.

	I'm okay with the numerals for Elizabeth and Mary, but Jane Grey should be accepted as she was the only Queen Jane.

	Hello- Thanks for the suggestions, I uhhh... just started making these, so I'm still trying to understand the whole process. If anyone could tell me how to make alternates for an answer, I'd be glad to change some of the answers for the quiz. Thanks again!

	There's a technical reason that Jane Grey wasn't accepted. Sporcle, as I understand it, can be made to accept last names (such as Grey), but to Sporcle, "Jane" looks like a middle name, rather than a first name.

	So, in what way was Mary Queen of Scots not a British female monarch?

	There are a number of major errors in this quiz. The only female monarchs of Britain were Mary II, Anne, Victoria and Elizabeth II. In particular King James I would have been be seriously unhappy at any suggestion that Elizabeth I was ever monarch of Britain as he was King of Scotland at the same time as she was Queen of England. I guess you could even argue over Mary II as, although she was monarch of the countries that now form Great Britain, there wasn't actually a Great Britain until the time of Queen Anne.
