History quiz

I was right there.... ouch,
 
9 out of 10, but I guessed on two.

<div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Click to reveal.. <input type="button" class="form-button" value="Show me!" onclick="toggle_spoiler(this, 'Yikes, my eyes!', 'Show me!')" />]<div style="display: none;">
The guessed the question about the financier correctly, and the correct answer for the spy was my second choice.

I'll take nine, please...
 
9 of 10 but I should've done etter with a Masters Degree in Military History.
 
Well, I scored 90% but I was cheated! Something was messed up with the questionnaire because for me, the first question was to select which of a list of countries was an ally during the Revolutionary War. But that was also the last question I was presented with, so when I finally ended the quiz and got the results, the first question showed as missed. But as you can see, I didn't have an answer selected because I was never presented that question as the first question (in fact I was never asked that question at all)


I would have scored 100% but to be honest, I guessed on the question (true or false) about the Polish Jew financier.

I had the same experience except the first question was also the eighth question, which made the first answer wrong because the real first question was never shown. I wuz cheated, cheated I tells ya. 90% anywho.
 
Well Kudos to Canadian education.
I got 90% and never had to guess at an answer except for the primary author, (got it wrong).
I'm happy to say I know so much about my great southern neighbor.

Dave :savewave:
 
Everyone has some type problem that's why you can't get higher than 90%.
 
I won't even say what I got.

don't matter no how.

we fought the battle of New Orleans AFTER the war was already over.
(o.k, it was only three days and they probably didn't know)
( and in 1814 NOT 1812)


bottom line is.....if they show up...we shoot 'em.

......the rest is just details.....
 
Somethin' flinky 'bout that thing. I had the same deal Basil got. Never saw the first "real" question, even went 'back' when it repeated #1 as #2 and gave it a wrong tick... woulda had 'em all but ended with 80%.

feh. It's a fix. Rigg'd! :madder:

I had the same thing happened to me. My first question was about the Liberty bell, and the same question showed up later in the quiz. I was never shown the Armistad question...which I would've gotten. So give me 10 for 10.

BTW, correct guesses always count, as I guessed about the Polish Jew also. But, it was an educated guess, as his name seemed familiar for the era.
 
8 out of 10 for me - but it's messed up, it showed me I answered questions wrong that it never asked me.
