Default Problems with the Answers for the Simpsons Quiz

There is a formatting error in the answers to this quiz which results in the answers not corresponding to the correct pictures. The is also is mismatch in the spelling of the word "Reverend". The quiz spells it "Reverend", but the answers spell it "Reverand".

This quiz was submitted to me via email for submission to the site. The way the quiz was written means that the author used the pictures in a different order to the answer sheet. It took me over a day to verify all the spelling in this spreadsheet and I didnt have the time to match the answers in order to the pictures.

So, sorry - the answers are not in order, but the columns read downwards and the spreadsheet reads across so you can work it out, it just takes a bit of time.

The correct spelling of reverend is the spelling in the sheet, I had to check every answer and there were a number of errors, I must have forgot to alter this in the answer sheet - sorry. The first thing I did was copy the answers into the answer document, and each correction I made in the sheet was then changed in the answer document.. so sorry I must have forgot with this one! I will change it in the next few days but I am busy writing some new quizzes so I can't do it right now.

This rule works for some answers, but there are still some that don't fit in. Anyway... no need to apologise so much ;-)

Why not post the quiz answers as the pdf of the correctly filled-in answer sheets?

The Guru thinks it's because this quiz was donated to Siliconhell. Siliconhell therefore relies on the accuracy of the person who created it.

Creating quizzes is not as easy as you mortals think it is :!:

Dont loose too much sleep it's only a quiz

Default Sorted Spelling

The spelling issues have been sorted in the answer PDF and have been uploaded to the forum now. The correct version is available to download.

I normally do the answer file last, but with this being such a big file I did it first.... the reverend spelling mistake was seen last minute which was why the answer sheet was not updated as well - Im only human and everyone makes mistakes... dont shoot me - I try my best!!!
