I haven't used this site before, but I am dumbfounded by how many problems I am having with it. Mostly these are server side problems (crashing) but lately I got a score report which is plain wrong. It shows a total of 35/43 questions, but if you scroll through the answers only 3 (not 8) are actually marked wrong. I am a bit dumbfounded by how a program designed to score quizzes could make this error but I suggest you double check any totals if you actually plan on using them for anything.   I have not gone through  and double checked all of them but now i guess I will have to sad.gif

Ok, checked some more.  Not sure what the problem is, but basically, many scores are wrong by varying amounts, in all cases, it is underscoring the total correct.

Weird, in my case, so far, almost every single one is wrong. Here is the breakdown so far of the multiple choice questions.  Mind you it is actually scoring them correctly, just totalling them wrong.

29 33
30 34

Can you send us a link to the quiz so we can investigate further? If you dont want to post here just send an email to [email protected] so we can investigate. This is a top priority issue for us.
