	Hi all. In case somebody wonders why this is formatted for wrong answers showing up, it's because I thought that multiple choice would be too easy to guess each answer in turn until the right answer shows up. I thought this format was perfect for multiple choice. Also, wasn't sure if some people would be upset at the "answer in order" format. I decided to do that because there are so many answers that have to be entered as bonuses in this format that there may be some crossover if it weren't answer in order. Besides, being kind of long on the page, it's really easier to just look at the questions at the top above the answer bar. :)

	Tahnan:	May 27th, 2011 at 05:05 GMT		2 points
	I'm good with the format, other than wanting the right answer to show up if you make a wrong guess. (OK, so it wasn't Tyler who got married in the White House; who was it? And so on.)

	someone_else:	May 27th, 2011 at 06:31 GMT		1 point
	I agree with Tahnan and would also like to add that Ariel interrupted a wedding, nobody interrupted hers.

	druhutch:	May 27th, 2011 at 06:55 GMT		1 point
	Yeah, you should definitely have the right answers come up in red when you have multiple choice like this. The easiest way is to put a star by it in the bonus column (like put 'Cupid/hermes/pluto' in the bonus column for the Cherub question and so on and that should fix it)

	debbiedoesnothin:	May 27th, 2011 at 07:41 GMT		1 point
	I don't really like having multiple choice - I'd rather just guess the answers, esp since I knew most of them without the choices. That's just personal preference though.

	SPOILER!!!SPOILER!!SPOILER!!Yes, that is definitely something I don't care for with this format. I didn't realize that the answers wouldn't show up in the results. I'll see if I can put them the way you suggested druhutch. In the meantime, for anyone who's interested, here are the answers: Bridal Chorus, E. Taylor, I love you, Cupid, bridesmaid dresses, wash her feet, June, Cyrano, just before the bride, DiMaggio, orange blossoms, henna, Prince Phillip, WW2, Mamma Mia, entire congregation, green, While You Were Sleeping, 7, Cleveland, Eros, left side, Jordan almonds, My Fair Lady, stephanotis, chimney sweep, Dixie Cups, money, Sam & Diane, faithfulness, chuppah, fertility, red, Mozart. :)

	I'm adding which answer is correct to show up for wrong guesses, but it might take a while. So I apologize if you are doing the quiz, and some of the wrong answers give the correct info and some don't. :)

	gracie:	May 27th, 2011 at 17:41 GMT		1 point
	it'd be nice if you gave letters to the choices, like A) red; B) blue; C) yellow. because some of the answers are kind of cumbersome and it would be a lot easier just to type in a letter.

	triviahappy:	May 27th, 2011 at 19:12 GMT		3 points
	gracie: I thought so too. I did have that at first, but then decided to follow the instructions for creating this kind of quiz on the sporcle blog. I was thinking that all the letters were going to run together between the answers and not work individually. I would have saved myself a lot of work, too, if I had just typed the letters instead of the words of the various wrong answers. (Each wrong answer has to be entered separately, making sure to retype each question on the lines too. Plus, I put in a lot of alternates.) But I wasn't sure it would work. Now, after seeing how the whole thing works, it probably would have been okay. But honestly, I didn't think the written-out answers would be any more tedious to type than written-out answers on other quizzes though. I do have some shortcuts with key words to shorten the longer ones (e.g. right side of the aisle accepts right side; the entire congregation accepts congregation, etc.). I also have the usual alternates for last names and such. Thanks for playing though. :)

	The answers are not numbered, so having answers like "#1 is the correct answer" only confuses things further. And the wrong answer still comes up in red. If I were a random quiz-taker, and I typed in "Bridal March" for the first one, and "Bridal March (the correct answer is #1)" came up, I would have no reason not to think, "sweet, I got that one right." Honestly, all you have to do is put something like "Nope, it's answer Y/answer x/answer z" in the bonus column and you'd be sitting pretty. (I'm not trying to ruin the wedding, I just think it's a great idea and want it to go right)

	@druhutch: I had thought that might be okay since there were just 3 answers in a line. Like I said, I was following instructions on the sporcle blog. I've played other quizzes where the wrong answer shows up and I guess I just thought it had to be that way for that type of quiz. I tried to fix it with correct answers showing up last night and it wasn't working. I tried again just now, and I've got it right now. The correct answers are showing up in red for wrong guesses. Thanks for the push because I do like it better this way. I really appreciate it. :)

	Which is not traditionally worn by a bride to bring good luck? something old; something gold ; a penny? A bride doen't wear a penny, she wears a "silver sixpence in her shoe" Nobody wears a penny. That question makes the score only 3 globes.

	triviahappy:	Jun 1st, 2011 at 04:41 GMT		2 points
	venuspersephone: Sixpence is in the original poem, yes, but over time the custom has also incorporated the penny. I suppose it depends upon what you have available, where you live, etc. There are many sites that mention brides putting a penny in their shoes for good luck, and I've known quite a few brides who did indeed do that. So, as the penny has also been customary for a long time now, and many brides have done it, it's not wrong for that to part of the question. Either would have worked. If I had been quoting the poem, then penny would have been wrong. However, I will take out the word traditionally.
